White House Chicken Cream Soup (1887)

"An old chicken for soup is much best. Cut it up in quarters, put it into a soup kettle with half a pound of corned ham and an onion, and add 4 quarts of water. Bring slowly to a gentle boil, and keep this up until the liquid has diminished one-third, and the meat drops from the bones.

"Add a cup of rice. Season with salt, pepper, and a bunch of chopped parsley.  

"Cook slowly until the rice is tender, then the meat should be taken out. Now, stir in 2 cups of rich milk thickened with a little flour. The chicken could be fried in a spoonful of butter, and a gravy made, reserving some of the white meat, chopping it and adding it to the soup."

Old-Fashioned Country Gravy (1976)

"Here's how you make real old-fashioned country gravy... Goddamit, more sins are committed making this than any other gravy.  When you make it right, this is fabulous.

"Fry your meat (pork, ham, veal, beef, chicken) in your usual way in an old-fashioned heavy iron skillet.  Remove meat, and keep warm.

"For about two cups of gravy, add butter to drippings in skilled to make 4 tablespoons. Add 4 tablespoons flour, and cook and stir over medium heat to make a smooth paste and to lightly brown flour.  Remove from heat and gradually add 2 cups milk (or more if you want a thinner gravy), returning to heat and stirring before additions.  

"Cook and stir for about 3 to 5 minutes more to make a smooth sauce. Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper."
