One cup and a half of green peas, three small French carrots, and a
small cauliflower cut into flowerettes, one pint of milk, half a cup of
cream, a good half tablespoonful of flour, one tablespoonful of butter,
and the yolks of two eggs. Wash and scrape the carrots, cut in thin
slices and boil each vegetable by itself in as little water as possible.
When the carrots and peas are done put them together in a saucepan with
the water in which they were cooked, add the milk, put the saucepan on
the fire and let it come to a boil, rub the butter and flour together,
mix with a little milk and stir into the vegetables. Drain the water
well from the flowerettes, and just before serving put them in the
tureen. Beat the yolks of eggs and the cream together in a bowl, remove
the soup from the fire, add a little of it to the eggs and cream, then
turn them into the soup, stir well and pour it into the tureen.
