Salmagundi was the chef's salad of 18th century England. In present day England and in Colonial Williamsburg, the name has been revived. My mother enjoyed serving this as a main course for dinner. We always liked it!

I'm not a huge fan of celery, but this salmagundi was so good that I didn't even notice it.
