Oyster Plant in Cream

Place in a basin two ounces flour, two quarts water and half gill vinegar; mix well. Scrape a large bunch sound, fresh oyster plants, cut off stems and immediately plunge in the prepared water and thoroughly wash, drain and plunge in three quarts boiling water with a tablespoon salt, adding a sound lemon cut in pieces, and boil forty minutes or until soft. Drain on a sieve, then cut in half-inch pieces. Prepare a cream sauce. Drop the oyster plant in the sauce, squeeze in juice of quarter of a sound lemon, lightly mix, boil five minutes. Pour into a vegetable dish, sprinkle a little parsley over and serve.
