Ingredients

  • Half a pound of Naples macaroni
  • one quart of mushrooms
  • two turnips
  • one onion
  • three Jerusalem artichokes
  • one dessert-spoonful of potato-flour
  • quarter of a pint of cream
  • four ounces of bread crumbs

Method

  1. Boil the macaroni in two quarts of water, with a teaspoonful of salt, and a small piece of butter; when tender, drain the water from it; wash it in fresh water; lay it in a clean cloth for a short time, and cut it in pieces about an inch in length.

  2. Wash the mushrooms without paring them, or cutting off the stems; put them in a pan with three quarts of water, the turnips, onions, artichokes, bread crumbs, mace, pepper, and salt; boil them till the vegetables are perfectly soft; rub them through a sieve; return the soup into the pan; put in the macaroni; set it on the fire again; stir in the potato-flour, mixed with a little cold water till quite smooth; add a little Cayenne pepper, and salt, as required, and when it has boiled ten minutes, add the cream.
