Mutton Soup

Ingredients

half full of water

Directions

Mutton broth is an excellent Winter dish. Soak a neck : mutton thoroughly. Put on to boil in the morning, in a pot about half full of water. When it comes to the boil, skim it well. About an hour before dinner, put in some turnips, onions, and carrots sliced thin: a little barley, which has been soaked in cold water. A short time before serving, you may put in some chopped parsley.
