CREAM OF CELERY SOUP
E. D. P.
1 quart of chicken soup,
1 dessertspoonful of butter,
1 dessertspoonful of cornstarch,
3 heads of celery,
1 quart of milk or cream.
Take the white part of the celery and chop it as fine as possible. Put it to
boil with the milk, and let it cook until it can be rubbed through a sieve. If
too thick, after it has been rubbed through, add a little more milk. Return it

the butter and cornstarch together, and stir in until it thickens; then season
to the taste with salt and white pepper.
