Bread Soup

Ingredients

• 1/2 pound of stale crusts of Allinson wholemeal bread
• 4 onions
• 2 turnips
• 1 stick of celery
• 1 ounce of butter
• 1/2 ounce of finely chopped parsley
• 8 pints of water
• 1/2 pint of milk

Instructions

Soak the crusts in the water for 2 hours before they are put over the fire. Cut up into small dice the vegetables; add them to the bread with the butter and pepper and salt to taste. Allow all to simmer gently for 1 hour, then rub the soup through a sieve, return it to the saucepan, add the milk and parsley, and, if the flavour is liked, a little grated nutmeg; boil the soup up and serve at once.
