Excerpt from the wayback cook-book collection:

drop into it, when boiling, butter and flour rubbed into a ball ; cook it until dissolved and smooth ; then add the yolks of one or two eggs, beaten up. Put the hashed meat into the tureen first, then the whitening with the egg, and at last the broth, being careful to mix the whole gradually and thoroughly. Minced parsley may be added. If the soup is to be brown, take butter and flour of equal quantity, mix it in a very hot iron pan, and continue stirring over the fire until evenly brown
