Artichoke Soup

We once had a veg basket with artichokes in, and no idea of what to do with them. This is one of the recipes we experimented with and were pleasantly surprised.

Ingredients

1 lb. of artichokes
1 lb. of potatoes
1 large onion
1 oz. of butter
1 pint of milk
pepper and salt to taste

Method

Peel, wash, and cut into dice the artichokes, potatoes, and onion.

Cook them until tender in 1 quart of water with the butter and seasoning.

When the vegetables are tender liquidize or rub them through a sieve.

Return the liquid to the saucepan, add the milk, and boil the soup up again.

Add water if the soup is too thick. Serve with either croutons or buttered bread.
