  • 1/4 teaspoonful of pepper
  • 1/2 ounce of cooper's gelatine
  • 1/2 cupful of water

Directions

1

1/2 can or 2 cupfuls of tomatoes. 3 cloves. 1 bay-leaf. 1 slice of onion. 1/2 teaspoonful of thyme. 1 teaspoonful of salt. 1 teaspoonful of sugar. 1/4 teaspoonful of pepper. 1/4 box or 1/2 ounce of Cooper's gelatine, soaked in 1/2 cupful of water.

Boil together the tomatoes, spices, and onion until the tomato is soft; then add the soaked gelatine, and stir until the gelatine is dissolved; then strain and pour it into a border or ring-shaped mold to set. Serve with the center of the jelly-ring filled with celery cut into pieces, into straws, or curled, and mixed with Mayonnaise. Form outside the ring a wreath of shredded lettuce.
