Clear Vegetable Soup Recipe

Any kind of vegetables on hand can be put in at the same time, a small

onion cut in slices, a little chopped carrot, turnip, a few string beans

cut in inch lengths, half a cupful of peas, a couple of stalks of

celery, a few sprigs of parsley, together with three or four cloves and

salt and pepper to taste. If these vegetables with the meat fill the

kettle one-third full, then it can be filled to the top with cold water.

After standing several hours it should be placed where it will heat

slowly and allowed to simmer for two hours, then strained and set aside

to cool and let the grease come to the top. When it is cold the cake of

fat can easily be lifted off.
