No one has any claim to be called a cook who cannot make soup
without artificial clearing, said the Marchesa. "Like the poet, the
consomme is born, not made. It must be clear from the beginning, an
achievement which needs care and trouble like every other artistic
effort, but one nevertheless well within the reach of any student
who means to succeed. To clear a soup by the ordinary medium of
white of egg or minced beef is to destroy all flavour and
individuality. If the stock be kept from boiling until it has been
strained, it will develop into a perfectly clear soup under the
hands of a careful and intelligent cook. The fleeting delicate
aroma which, as every gourmet will admit, gives such grateful aid
to the palate, is the breath of garden herbs and of herbs alone,
and here I have a charge to bring against contemporary cookery.
