This recipe was extracted from The Toronto Cook Book (1915) by Powell, E. J. Mrs.,d.b. 1853, page 111. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Bisque of Clams For a quart of soup take fifteen large clams; stew them in one pint water and their own liquor for a quarter of an hour. Boil one pint of milk, stir a tablespoon of butter and one of flour together; then add the boiling milk, stirring all the time; stand it to one side. Squeeze each clam with a lemon squeezer. Throw away the empty skins; add the strained clams and broth to the white sauce, bring to a boil and remove from the fire while you beat the yolk of an egg
