Spring Soup

Ingredients

• 1/2 pint of green peas
• 1/2 pint of cauliflower
• 1 pint of turnip, carrot, celery and string beans (all the four vegetables being included in the pint)
• 1/2 cupful of tomato
• 1/2 pint of asparagus heads
• 2 quarts of soup stock (any kind will do)
• 3 table-spoonfuls of butter
• 3 table-spoonfuls of flour
• salt
• pepper

Instructions

Cook all the vegetables, except the peas and tomato, in water to cover one hour.

Cook butter and dry flour together until smooth, but not brown; stir into the stock, which has been heated to the boiling point.

Now add the tomato and simmer gently fifteen minutes; then strain.

Add the peas and cooked vegetables to the strained soup, and simmer again for thirty minutes.

Serve small slices of toasted bread in a separate dish.
