Pare the potatoes and slice, and add them to the peas, and other ingredients, a half hour before they are finished cooking. When all are tender, drain off the liquid, which should equal one quart in quantity. If there is not this quantity, add sufficient water to make one quart. If desired 1 tablespoon Japanese sauce or soy, or 2 teaspoons Savora may be added. To each serving add a tablespoon small string beans cut into short lengths.
1/2 cup diced carrots 1/3 Cup diced turnips 1/3 cup chopped cabbage.

Prepare the bean stock as follows:
Soak 1 cup of beans in 1 quart water over night. Put to cook in the same water in which they were soaked and cook until thoroughly softened. Let stand until settled, then strain off the clear liquid. There should be 1% cups of it. If deficient in quantity add sufficient water to make this amount.
1/2 cup diced carrots 1/3 Cup diced turnips 1/3 cup sliced onions.
1/3 cup chopped celery.
2 tablespoons Savora.

Strain out the vegetables, add the savora and salt if desired. Clarify the stock as follows: Beat the whites of two eggs slightly, break the shells into small pieces and add with the beaten whites to the cool stock. Place over a hot fire and stir constantly until the boiling point is reached.
Boil 2 minutes and then set on the back of the range and let simmer 20 minutes. Remove the scum and strain through a double thickness of cheese cloth placed over a fine strainer. It may now be served as a clear bouillon, or it may be served in bouillon cups with a spoonful of whipped cream on top.
