canned or dried fruits. We add this juice to
water in which sage or barley grits have been
cooked, favored with grated lemon peel and
stick cinnamon. When this has all been
STAINED, we added a few cooked prunes and
preserved cherries, and very often little
whipped cream is floating on top.
Buttermilk soup is extremely wholesome.
The buttcrmilk is boiled, thickened with rice
-four, sweetened with sugar. We add grated
lemon peel and a handful of raisins. We al.
,cost always serve whipped cream with this
soup. In Denmark we will go without many
things before we give up our good cream and
butter. The price has been very high, higher,
I believe, than with you. But, if we have it,
we pay it for what we consider essentials.
We do not eat much beef in Denmark. But
what we do is first marnated; that is, allowed
to stand twelve hours in a preparation of oil
ana vinegar, claret and laurel leaves. After
