Bread Soup

Ingredients

8 oz. of stale wholemeal crust
4 onions
2 turnips
1 stick of celery
1 oz. of butter
1/2 oz. of finely chopped parsley
8 pints of water
1/2 pint of milk.

Method

Soak the crusts in the water for 2 hours before they are put over the heat.

Cut the vegetables into a small dice; 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.
