Gravy Soup

Ingredients

• 3 quarts strong stock
• sweet herbs
• 1 carrot
• 1 turnip
• 1 head of celery
• vermicelli, maccaroni, or thin slices of carrot
• sippets of fried bread

Instructions

1. Bring the strong stock to a simmer with a bunch of sweet herbs, a carrot, a turnip, and a head of celery. These flavoring vegetables and herbs are not meant to be served in the finished soup—they are for seasoning only and should be removed before serving.
2. Choose one or more garnish options: vermicelli, maccaroni, or thin slices of carrot, along with small sippets of fried bread cut into fancy shapes. Serve these garnishes in the soup bowl.
