RECIPE

16. Stewed Cucumbers.
Slice some cucumbers thick, or cut them into halves
and divide them into two lengths ; strew over them some
salt, pepper, and sliced onions ; add a little broth, or a bit
of butter. Simmer very slowly, and before you serve them
if you have used no butter put in some, also a little flour,
unless the dish lacks richness.
