Notes:

This recipe from the New York Times Heritage Cook Book, by Jean Hewitt, G.P. Putnam's Sons, New York, 1972, page 50, is unusual in that even though the book is divided into regional sections such as Northwest and Southwest, the Reuben sandwich, in the Northeast section, does not contain either Russian or Thousand Island dressing.
