Directions

1

Cut up and skin two chickens, with two onions and three strips of sweet middling. Fry this in a skillet; when it is done, pour some water on it and rinse all into a pot, filling the pot two thirds full of water. Put in one quart of tomatoes and let it cook with the soup. In a saucepan cook four pints of okra. When the chicken in the soup has boiled long enough to bone, pour the soup through the colander, so as to take out all of the bones ; and drop in the tomatoes and the pieces of middling. Pull the meat or chicken into small pieces, and put back the soup to boil, adding the okra. Salt to the taste. — Mn. L. Payne.
