Broth For The Poor Recipe

A good wholesome broth may be made at a very reasonable rate to feed the

poor in the country. The following quantities would furnish a good meal

for upwards of fifty persons.



Take twenty pounds of the very coarse parts of beef, five pounds of

whole rice, thirteen gallons of water; boil the meat in the water first,

and skim it very well; then put in the rice, some turnips, carrots,

leeks, celery, thyme, parsley, and a good quantity of potatoes; add a

good handful of salt, and boil them all together till tender.
