Get 2 double hands full of ochra, wash and slice it thin, add 2 onions chopped fine, put it into a gallon of water at an early hour in the morning. It must be kept steadily simmering, but not boiling; put in pepper and salt. At 12 o’clock put in a handful of lima beans; at half-past 1 o’clock add 3 young squash, cut in small pieces a chicken or knuckle of veal, a bit of bacon or pork that has been boiled, 6 tomatoes, peeled. When nearly done, thicken with a spoonful of butter mixed with one of veal. Have rice boiled separately to serve with it.
