Milk and Bread Soup.
Boil down the liquor in which Saturday’s calf’s head was cooked, to less than two quarts. Add a pint of milk previously heated, and mixed with three beaten eggs. Thicken with two tablespoonfuls of butter rolled in flour, and take at once from the fire. Salt and pepper, if needed. Have ready in a tureen a cupful of fine, dry crumbs. Pour on the soup, stir up for a moment, cover and send to table with a plate of grated cheese.
