SPINACH WITH EGG SAUCE
2 quarts spinach 2 tablespoonfuls flour 2 tablespoonfuls butter 1 egg Few grains each, nutmeg and pepper 1½ cupful soup-stock Wash spinach thoroughly in several waters, finally pouring over warm water to remove any possible grit. Place in a kettle, add a little salt but no additional water, and cook gently for twenty minutes, lifting it occasionally so that the spinach will not burn. Chop fine or put through the food-chopper, return to the kettle, and add the butter melted and combined with the flour and the stock. Let this boil ten minutes, then beat the egg thoroughly, add a little of the liquor left from the spinach or, if there is none, a little cold water; mix well with the spinach and season with the pepper and nutmeg. The leaves of young beets, or kohlrabi, or new cabbage, may be prepared in this same way. Yours truly,
