Sarah Tyson Rorer was a prolific author of cookbooks during the late 19th - early 20th centuries. Her primary concern was healthy eating and good nutrition. She was also a great proponent of the chafing dish. Twenty Quick Soups is a short book of Mrs. Rorer’s soup recipes. Some will sound familiar – Tomato Soup, Cream of Corn; and some will be unfamiliar - Pistachio Soup, Ye Food for Ye Gods. From lighter fare suited for lunch to more substantial dinner-time concoctions, I believe you will find plenty to suit your tastes.
