AMISH EGG DROP SOUP

I am not Amish but grew up around them in Indiana. They are great people and the women and girls are excellent cooks. This is one of their old recipes but not one I enjoy as I am not fond of eggs.

4 cups milk

1 tbsp butter

1/2 tsp salt

pinch of pepper

8 eggs 

Heat milk, butter, salt and pepper to scalding. Drop eggs in one at a time. Keep milk hot but not boiling for about 5 minutes. Flip eggs and heat 5 minutes more. 

Yield: 4 servings of 2 eggs each
