Mock Terrapin Soup

Cut up two pounds roast or boiled beef in small pieces. Put one large teacup new milk, one large teacup of wine, a piece of butter size of an egg (rolled in flour), a little nutmeg, two or three spoonfuls mixed mustard--all in a stewpan, and cook ten or fifteen minutes. Good way to use up cold meats.-Mrs.
