What happened to the "Salmagundi (disambiguation)" link (and article)? There were several other notable uses of the term and they should be included somewhere.-- Visionthing 22:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- They were mostly dictionary-type items, not really encyclopedic. —

- I beg to differ. They were no less encyclopedic and no more like dictionary entries than what is there now. Unless someone else protests, I'm going to revert this one. At the very least, the disambiguation is justified.--

- As there is only one Salmagundi article, there is nothing to disambiguate. — tregoweth ( talk) 16:31, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

- There are actually now at least two other pages, Salmagundi (magazine) and Salmagundi (periodical). That likely merits a disambiguation page.-- Federalistpapers ( talk) 14:13, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Though they have a shared root, most dictionaries (e.g. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Salmi ) define 'salmi' as a ragout of game such as pheasant and 'salmagundi' (in the cookery sense) as a mixed salad including chopped meat, anchovies, eggs, and onions. I suggest separating 'salmi' and all stew references into a separate article - or at least moving the salad reference into a section specific to the current meaning of salmagundi which follows an introduction explaining the two words with a shared root.

This entry has a problem.
Late in the seventeenth century, the name salmagundi was applied to the grand salads of large houses. These compound salads descended from medieval herb and flower salads. Raw salads, according to food historian C. Anne Wilson, 'had never come under the same sort of disapproval as fresh fruit, partly because so many salad plants were thought to have medicinal properties. Moreover, in a skilfully mixed salad, aromatic herbs noted for their warm, dry qualities, could counteract the coldness of other kinds, such as lettuce, purslane or endive'. During the reign of Elizabeth I fruits and vegetables and hard-boiled eggs were added to them.
It begins with "Late in the seventeenth century..." - that would mean the late 1600s. Elizabeth I (b.1 1533 d. 1603) was not alive in the late 1600s. IACOBVS ( talk) 14:35, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
