This is one of a number of historical recipes I am posting from my cookbook collection. This recipe is adapted from the Rumford Complete Cookbook. The recipe title is not a misspelling. Cook time is chilling time. Number of servings is a guess.
Ingredients:
1 1/2-2 cups shredded coconut
2 apples, peeled, cored and chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped onions
1 tablespoon parsley, coarsely chopped
3 chili peppers
salad dressing (vinaigrette or an old-fashioned french dressing such as french dressing (1908))
lettuce (optional)
tomato, centers scooped out (optional)
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients and mix well.
2. Place in bowl and cover with dressing.
3. Chill at least 1 hour.
4. Serve in lettuce cups or in scooped-out tomatoes.
