INSTRUCTIONS
A recipe from grandmother's more thrifty times; rarely encountered today.
Melt the butter, and whisk in flour. Add meat broth or water. Add the
rinsed and chopped herbs, and briefly bring to a boil. Let soup cool a bit,
then thicken with egg yolk. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar.
Stir in sour cream when serving.
In some Swabian kitchens, very finely chopped garlic gets scattered on top
of the soup.
Serves 4.
