Green Pea Soup.
Take the fat from the top of the corned-beef liquor; add the beef-bones and any others you may have. Boil gently one hour, skimming often. Strain, and put in two quarts of green peas, a minced onion, and a bunch of sweet herbs. Cook forty-five minutes and rub to a pulp through a colander. Add pepper, heat to a boil and pour upon dice of fried bread laid in the tureen.
