soups.
BEEF SOUP.
Boil a soup bone the day before wanting it ; skim the
grease off next day, and melt the jelly; add spices to taste, a
little brandy, a small teacup of butter rubbed in browned
flour, a little vermicelli, and a grated carrot.
Boil three eggs hard, mash smooth, put in tureen, and
pour soup over them. Washington.
MACARONI or VERMICELLI SOUP.
Two small carrots, four onions, two turnips, two cloves,
one tablespoon salt; pepper to taste. Herbs — marjoram,
parsley and thyme. Any cooked or uncooked meat. Put the
soup bones in enough water to cover them ; when they boil,
skim them and add the vegetables. Simmer three or four
hours, then strain through a colander and put back in the
sauce-pan to reheat.
Boil one-half pound macaroni until quite tender, and place
in the soup tureen, and pour the soup over it — the last thing.
Vermicelli will only need to be soaked a short time — not
boiled. Ida Satterlee.

SPLIT PEAS SOUP.
One gallon of water, one quart peas soaked over night,
one-quarter pound salt pork, cut in bits ; one pound lean
beef, cut the same. Boil slowly two hours, or until the water

through. Return to the kettle, and add one small head
celery, chopped fine, a little parsley and marjoram. Have
three or four slices of bread, fried brown in butter, cut up
and put in the soup when served.
Mrs. M. K. W.
POTATO SOUP.
Boil in one quart of water a small slice salt pork, one or
two onions, six or eight good size potatoes, boiled, mashed
fine and put with the pork and onions. Boil half an hour,
then add milk to make about as thick as peas soup. Pepper
and salt.
Just before taking up, add a small piece of butter ; strain
through a colander.
Mrs. M. K. Woodbury.
TURTLE BEAN SOUP.
One pint black beans, soaked in cold water over night ;
add one gallon water, one-half pound salt pork, one-half
pound beef, one or two onions and a grated carrot. Strain
after boiling three or four hours, and add a little wine, one
lemon and one hard boiled egg, sliced, into the tureen. Pour
the soup over them. Washington.
NOODLES.
Three eggs slightly beaten, two tablespoons of water, pinch
of salt; add flour to make a stiff dough ; roll as thin as wafer,
sprinkle over flour, and roll into tight roll ; cut into thin
slices and let dry for an hour before putting into soup.
