SOUPS UTILIZE LEFTOVERS
In nearly every case when meat is purchased, some bone is paid for.
Too frequently this is either left at the market or thrown away in
the home. Bones, gristle, tough ends, head and feet of chickens, head,
fins and bones of fish, etc., should be utilized for making soup.
If a meat or fish chowder with plenty of vegetable accompaniment is
served, no other meat is required for the usual home meal.
