This recipe was extracted from Every-day dishes and every-day work (1897) by E. E. Kellogg, page 62. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Brown Soup. — Simmer together two pints of sliced pota- toes and one third as much of the thin brown shavings (not thicker than a silver dime) from the top of a loaf of whole- wheat bread, in one quart of water. The crust must not be burned or blackened, and should not include any of the soft por- tion of the loaf. When the potatoes are tender, mash all through a colander. Flavor with a cup of strained, stewed tomatoes, a little salt, and return to the fire ; when hot, add a half cup of cream
