Chicken and Corn Soup.
The pot-liquor from yesterday’s chickens; 12 ears of corn, grated from the cob; 1 cup of milk; 1 tablespoonful of butter, rolled in flour; pepper, salt, and parsley.
Take the fat from the top of your liquor, and save in the dripping-pot. Heat the broth to a boil; put in the cobs from which the corn has been cut, and cook half an hour. Strain the soup; put again over the fire and put in the cut corn. N. B.—It is well to split each row of grains before cutting them off. Cook forty minutes, stir in butter and flour, with the parsley. Simmer five minutes, and serve.
