2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon salt.
Heat the tomato. Rub the flour and butter together. Pour over this the hot but not boiling tomato, slowly stirring meanwhile. Let come to the boiling point and cook for five minutes directly over the flame. A little onion or celery salt may be added if desired.
4 tablespoons butter.
5 tablespoons browned flour 1 pint protose broth.
3 tablespoons lemon juice.
1 tablespoon sugar.
1 tablespoon onion.
2 tablespoons chopped ripe olives.

3/4 cup strained tomato 8 to 10 ripe olives 1 1/2 cups water 1/4 cup butter 2 teaspoons Savora.
Cook the onion and butter in a double boiler ten to fifteen minutes. Prepare the cereal coffee by cooking two tablespoons of the dry cereal coffee in one cup of boiling water for 20 minutes. Keep covered while cooking. Add the water and strained tomatoes to the cereal coffee. Add the flour to the butter and onion, remove from the heat, then add slowly, stirring meanwhile, the hot liquids. Let boil 5 minutes, then add the seasonings, the mushrooms cut into small pieces, the olives cut from the stones, and cook for two or three minutes.
If the mushrooms are fresh, they should be prepared by washing, removing the stem, scraping and cutting into small pieces. Peel the caps and break in pieces. Cook slowly about 8 minutes in boiling salted water. This water should be used as a part of the liquid called for in the recipe.
Mushrooms have practically no nutritive value but are prized for the flavor which they impart.
