Mock Oyster Soup Recipe

The oyster plant is used for this delicious dish--by many it is known as

salsify. Scrape the vegetable and cut into small pieces with a silver

knife (a steel knife would darken the oyster plant). Cook in just enough

water to keep from burning, and when tender press through a colander and

return to the water in which it was cooked. Add three cups of hot milk

which has been thickened with a little butter and flour and rubbed

together and seasoned with salt and white pepper. A little chopped

parsley may be added before serving. 1/2 cup cream instead of all milk

greatly improves taste.
