Oatmeal Puree Recipe

• 1½ cups cooked oatmeal
• 2 small onions, chopped
• 1 cup celery, chopped
• 1 pint milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ saltspoon white pepper

1. 1 teaspoon chopped parsley.

1. Boil the onion and celery in a pint of water until nearly done; add the oatmeal mush and continue to cook until all is soft, adding more boiling water if it becomes too thick.
2. Strain through a rather coarse strainer, pressing the pulp through with a spoon.
3. Add the milk, bring to a boil, then add the butter and other seasonings, sprinkling in the chopped parsley just before serving.
4. If liked, a blade of mace may be cooked in before straining.
