215. To prepare a thick soup of common field mushrooms and other sorts of mushrooms.<\/p>\n
Get field mushrooms (which are most delicate of all mushrooms) in their season, in Rome between the end of February and the middle of May.\u00c2\u00a0 Clean off the skin that is around them, and especially any sand on their stalk, and wash them in several changes of water.\u00c2\u00a0 Put them into a casserole pot where there is melted pork fat, pepper, and cinnamon, and saute them lightly with nothing else because as they cook they make their own broth.\u00c2\u00a0 When they have boiled a little, put in some yellow saveloy or slices of marbled prociutto to cook with them, adding a little good meat broth.\u00c2\u00a0 Before serving them, put in a handful of beaten herbs, a little grated bread, verjuice, pepper, cinnamon and saffron, and bring it all to a boil.\u00c2\u00a0 Serve them hot with the saveloy on top.<\/p>\n
