CREAM PEA SOUP

CREAM PEA SOUP
Soak three fourths of a pint of dried Scotch peas over night in a quart of water. In the morning put to cook in boiling
water, cover closely and let them simmer gently four or five hours, or until the peas are very tender and well
disintegrated; then rub through a colander to remove the skins. If the peas are very dry, add a little water or milk
occasionally, to moisten them and facilitate the sifting. Just before the peas are done, prepare potatoes enough to
make a pint and a half, after being cut in thin slices. Cook the potatoes until tender in a small amount of water, and
rub them through a colander. Add the potatoes thus prepared to the sifted peas, and milk enough to make three and
one half pints in all. Return to the fire, and add a small head of celery cut finger lengths, and let the whole simmer
together ten or fifteen minutes, until flavored. Remove the celery with a fork; add salt and a cup of thin cream. This
should make about two quarts of soup. If preferred, the peas may be cooked without soaking. It will, however,
require a little longer time.
Enjoy the CREAM PEA SOUP!

Soup Making Tips
Soup serves two purposes: first, as an appetizer taken at the beginning of a meal to stimulate the appetite and aid in the flow of digestive juices in the stomach; and secondly, as an actual part of the meal, when it must contain sufficient nutritive material to permit it to be considered as a part of the meal instead of merely an addition. |
