Recipe for Cream of Potato

Ingredients

  • 5 freshly boiled potatoes
  • 1 slice of onion
  • 1 quart of hot milk
  • 1 small teaspoonful of salt
  • 1 teaspoonful chopped parsley

Directions

This soup has no water in it, because that which has had potatoes boiled in it is always spoiled for anything else and must always be thrown away. This is why you must take a quart of milk instead of a pint. There is no thickening in the soup, because the potatoes will thicken it themselves. Put the parsley in at the very last, after the soup is in the tureen.
