Bread Soup
Ingredients
Directions
Bring the stock to a boil and let it simmer for 3 to 4 hours.
In a bowl, place bits of stale bread.
Pour enough hot broth over the bread to soak it well.
Mash the soaked bread finely and add it to the stock.
Continue to simmer for a few more minutes after adding the bread mash.
