New Principles of Gardening. 
Sixthly, That the Sallet be compofed of fuch Herbs as are 
agreeable to both Weather and Conftitution ; which laft may 
be performed by the Directions of the firft Table, and the for- 
mer by Difcretion. 
N. B. That Sallets fhould’be fo chofen, as to be agreeable 
to both Weather and Conftitution, as is faid before, vzz. thofe 
which arechot, forcold Weather and cold Stomachs; the tempe- 
rate ones, for temperate Weather, and the very cool ones, for 
very hot Weather, as well as hot Stomachs, 
N. B. That Sallets may be fo -mix’d, as to be hot and moitt, 
hot and dry, temperate, ¢c..as for Example, Onions and Cu- 
-cumbers being mix’d together, viz. double the Quantity of 
Cucumbers as of Onions, the one being cold and moift in 
the fecond Degree, and the other hot and dry in the fourth 
Degree. 
This Mixture moderates the oppofite Natures of both, and 
caufes them together to be of a temperate Quality, and the 
like of all others. 
The bef Difhes-to drefs Sallets i in, are China Difhes, on 
Account that the Oil and Vinegar are difagreeable to both Silver 
and Pewter. 
The Oxoleon. 
Take of clear and perfec good Oyl Olive three parts; of 
fharp Vinegar, Limon, or Juice of Orange one part ; and therein 
let fteep fome Slices of Horfe Radifh, with a little Salt, and 
fome in Vinegar alone; gently bruife a pod of Guwinea- 
Pepper ftraining both the Vinegars apart, to make ufe of cither, 
or alone, or of both as they beft like. Then add as much good 
dry Muftard grated as will lie upon an half Crown piece, beat 
and mingle all thefe very well together; but pour not on the 
Oyl and Vinegar, till immediately before the Sallet is ready 
to be eaten; and then with the yolk of two new laid Eggs 
boil’d, fquafh and bruife them all into math with a Spoon : 
And Laftly, pour it all upon the Herbs, ftirring and mingling 
them till they are well and throughly imbib’d, not forgetting 
the fprinkling of Aromatick Flowers that are in Seafon, as well 
as thin flices of red Beet, Horfe Radifh, Berberries, gc. 
N. B. That the Liquids may be made more or lefs acid, as is 
moft agrecable to the Tafte.
