Recipe by: Beaumont Inn

Combine all ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours, skimming the top as needed.

Note: Many regional versions of this soup are thick enough to stand your spoon in. I developed this recipe to be a lighter first course soup. Its history dates back to before the civil war and is a favorite at Kentucky Derby time.
