A modern interpretation · AI-generated from the original record

Ingredients

  • Cut the carrots into inch lengths
  • celery is prepared in the same way
  • turnips also are first pared into ribands

Method

  1. Cut the carrots into inch lengths, then pare them round and round in ribands of equal thickness, till the inside is reached; next cut these ribands into straws, or very small strips.

  2. Celery is prepared in the same way, and turnips also are first pared into ribands, then sliced into strips; these last require less boiling than the carrots.

  3. Boil each vegetable separately, till tolerably tender, in a little pale broth (in water if this be not at hand), drain them well, and put them into the soup, which should be clear, only a few minutes before it is dished.
