Of course, in our modern, complimt- c4 civilization soup u a daily neces- sity, summer dud winter. that u- sumo: a rather unimportant place in the list of the days’ menus. Nevertheless, soup does become) more important on the cold days of winter. It can well be the main dish at luncheon: and although the soup at dinner must necessarily be somewhat simple-that is to say, not too heavy-it can be varied ac- cording to the imagination and ability of the housewife and the cook. Here are some recipes for some "petizing and sewnablo Uoups, some of them suitable for Juncheon and some for dinner. I Almond soup can be served at ‘dinner. To make it cut four pounds 10f knuckle of veal into small pieces land simmer it for about four hours in three quart; of water. Then add a. little chopped parsley, two stalks of celery chopped coarsely and some “It, and pepper. Cook gently for another hour. Strain. cool and take off the fat. Beat, add a mblesmm- .ful of butter rubbed smooth with two tablespoonfuls of cornstarch and then with some of the hot soup and cook rapid] tor ten minutes. Then add a cupf’nl of blanched " ‘monds, pounded to a smooth paste. Serve at once. Soup Is Good Standby for Winter. Salmon soup is especially suit- able for luncheon. To make it boil slowly a, can of salmon with a quart of water for thirty minutes. Then add two cupfuls of milk, a cupful of fine breadcrumbs, a tablespoon» ful of butter, pepper and salt to taste, and cook about five minutes longer. simmer for five minutes, and serve with croutons. I Cocks Leekie is another old Boup, In fact the recipe here given ir,) copied from the oldest known re-i cipe for soup, which was written) some time in the tourteeedh cen- tury. Cocks Leekie he: been a favorite everywhere, eapecially in winter. To make it, cut twelve leeks, which have been washed, in pieces half an inch long and cut two stalks of celery and a. scraped carrot into pieces of the same size. Put two -tablespooufuls of butter into a saucepen and put in the vegetables. When they are brown, add six cup Jul: of chicken broth and a cupful lo! cooked chicken, cut in dice. Cover the saucepan and simmer the mixture for two hours. 'then add salt and pepper. Beet the yolk of an egg and add a. little of the hot broth to it gradually. beating it all the time. Add this to the soup and serve at. once. Cauliflower soup is made from a head of fresh cauliflower, which has been soaked for an hour in salted water. Then it would be boiled until tender and then the small top flowerets should be out off. The rest should be mashed and rubbed through a_aieve ”I‘lnd‘ ytAitd, to. t 'i"i2iriariiirve.
