No. 1. One chicken, one onion and one and one-half gallons of water. Chop the onion fine, cover the chicken with water, and when it is sufficiently cooked pick from the bones and cut in small pieces. Season to taste, flavor and thicken. I use nutmeg for flavoring. CHICKEN SOUP No. 2. To be made the same as No. i, with the exception that the bones are not taken out. The chicken is cut into square pieces and boiled. Flavor as inN o. i. BROWN SOUP. One gallon of good strong stock, one onion minced and a little bag of fine herbs. Boil, season with salt and pepper to taste, and add a cup of cooking wine when it is done. Have ready some square pieces of bread fried brown, pour the soup over them and send to the table. SAGO OR TAPIOCA SOUP. One gallon of chicken or veal broth and one cup of sago or tapioca. Put the sago to soak, boil the stock, and fifteen minutes before it is done add the sago. Season with salt and pepper and thicken if needed. OYSTER SOUP. One quart of oysters and two gallons of chicken broth. After the broth is done add the oysters, season with salt and pepper to taste, a little butter and thicken. Very nice. CLAM SOUP. One quart of clams, two gallons of water and one onion. Cut the clams, or chop them; mince the onion and boil all ten minutes. A dd a piece of butter the size of a walnut, and season to taste. Liquor, if there is any with the clams, is a great improvement. LOBSTER SOUP. One gallon of veal or chicken broth, the meat of six or eight large lobsters. Boil and add the lobsters, cut in small pieces, and let the whole simmer ten minutes and thicken. This is equal to any veal or chicken broth.

Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint
Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.
