Vegetable Soup Recipe

One cup and a half of green peas, three small French carrots, and a

small cauliflower cut into flowerettes, one pint of milk, half a cup of

cream, a good half tablespoonful of flour, one tablespoonful of butter,

and the yolks of two eggs. Wash and scrape the carrots, cut in thin

slices and boil each vegetable by itself in as little water as possible.

When the carrots and peas are done put them together in a saucepan with

the water in which they were cooked, add the milk, put the saucepan on

the fire and let it come to a boil, rub the butter and flour together,

mix with a little milk and stir into the vegetables. Drain the water

well from the flowerettes, and just before serving put them in the

tureen. Beat the yolks of eggs and the cream together in a bowl, remove

the soup from the fire, add a little of it to the eggs and cream, then

turn them into the soup, stir well and pour it into the tureen.
