Cheap Soup




According to the 1881 ''Household Cyclopedia'', cheap Soup can be made in the following way.

Take an ox-cheek, 2 Peck s of potatoes, 1/4 of a peck of onions, 3/4 of a Pound of salt, and 1 1/2 ounces of pepper--to be boiled in 90 Imperial Pint s of water, on a slow fire until reduced to 60. A pint of this soup with a small piece of meat, is a good meal for a hearty working man. Some of every vegetable, with a few herbs, may be added.
