INSTRUCTIONS
Insert slivers of garlic into the meat. Place in a large pot and add water
to cover and bring to a boil.
Skim and add carrots, onions, and cabbage. Simmer.
In the meantime, brown the celery, leeks and turnips in the olive oil in a
pan over moderate heat.
Sprinkle with the flour and stir well. Add to the pot.
Place the tomatoes in a separate saucepan, crush them and cook over
moderate heat. Season them well with salt and pepper and a bouquet garni.
After 20 minutes, rub them through a food mill into the pot with the meat
and vegetables.
Simmer for another 2 hours before serving. Taste for tenderness and cook
longer if necessary.

NOTES : Eat this soup in the middle of the vineyards after a riotous
morning's work in the fresh air of the Gironde river. This soup
is worth more than any of the fancy dishes on menus at refined
restaurants.
A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
