This may be made by boiling (the day before it is needed for use) broken joints of beef, veal or mutton. After putting the meat into the pot, cover well with cold water and let come to a boil, skim well, simmer slowly until thoroughly done, keeping the pot closely covered. Next day remove the fat. After this add whatever vegetables and herbs you wish for seasoning, cooking all well together. Strain before sending to table. A good stock for soups may be made from shreds and bits of uncooked meat and bones, poultry and the remains of gaine. Put all together and stew. Used chiefly in the preparation of brown soups. BLACK BEAN SOUP.—One pint black beans, 2 quarts cold water, 1 small onion, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 salt- spoon pepper, + saltspoon cayenne, 1 saltspoon mustard, 1 tablespoon flour, 2 tablespoons butter, 1 lemon, 2 hard boiled eggsBlack Bean Soup. Soak the beans over night. In the morning pour off that water and put on to boil in 2 quarts cold water. Slice the onions and fry in 1| tablespoon of the butter, put it with the beans, add a bit of celery root, simmer 4 or 5 hours or till the beans are soft, add more cold water as it boils away, half a cupful every half hour to check the boiling and soften the beans, leaving about 2 quarts when done. Rub the beans through a strainer, put the soup on to boil again, add the salt, pepper and mustard. When boiling, thicken with the flour and butter cooked to- gether ; this will prevent the beans from settling. Cut the 10 SOUPS. lemon and egg in thin slices, put them in the tureen and pour the hot soup over them. Add 1 wineglass of port wine. Black beans may be got in May or June only, but will keep a long time. Mrs. ATKINSON. VEGETABLE SOUP.—One spoon butter, 1 spoon flour, 4 spoon salt and pepper, | cup hot water, 1 cup hot stock, 1 cup hot milk, 1 cup vegetable pulpVegetable Soup. If no stock, two cups milk. Mrs. THos.
