Dr Glynn's Receipt For Dressing A Cucumber
DR. GLYNN, whose name is still remembered in Cambridge, being one day in
attendance on a lady, in the quality of her physician, took the liberty
of lecturing her on the impropriety of eating cucumber, of which she
was immoderately fond, and gave her the following humorous receipt for
dressing them: Peel the cucumber, said the doctor, with great care;
then cut it into very thin slices, pepper and salt it well, and
then--throw it away.
