Another recipe from the 1980 version of the Grace Evangelical Congregational Church cookbook from Muir, Pennsylvania that was given to me by my Nana when I became an adult. This recipe was submitted to the cookbook by the Tallman Family. They run a potato processing plant in town. So, it make sense they submitted a potato recipe. As with so many of these recipes, they didn't specify how many servings it made so I am guessing.
Ingredients:
1 lb smoked sausage, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tablespoon margarine
3 cups potatoes, diced
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cups water
2 tablespoons parsley
1 egg yolk
1/2-1 cup milk
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. In large Dutch oven melt margarine.
2. Brown the sausage and drain off all but 1 tablespoon of dripping.
3. Add all other ingredients except egg yolk, flour and milk.
4. Bring to a boil and simmer until potatoes are tender.
5. Mix yolk and flour until pea-size and crumbly.
6. Add to soup, stirring constantly.
7. Cook for one to two minutes.
8. Add milk and heat.
9. Serve immediately.
