This recipe was extracted from Modern cookery, in all its branches (1884) by Eliza Acton, page 63. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

CUCUMBER SOUP. Pare, split, and empty from eight to twenty* fine, well grown, but not old cucumbers, — those which have the fewest seeds are best for the purpose ; throw a little salt over them, and leave them for an hour to drain, then put them with the white part only of a couple of mild onions into a deep stewpan or delicately clean saucepan, cover them nearly half an inch with pale but good veal stock

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
