A salad of almost any kind of fruit makes an appetizing dish for
luncheon or for dinner. One of pears is really delicious if the pears
are peeled, cored, and cut in thin slices, laid in a dish, sprinkled
ever so lightly with powdered sugar, and have a few drops of brandy or
rum poured over them. Of course this salad, like all others made of
fruit, needs to be thoroughly chilled before it is served, to have its
appetizing qualities at their best.
