        Ingredients
        6 pounds potato             1/2 loaf white bread
        butter                      farina

        milk                         water
        2 tablespoons salt



        Instructions
        First prepare croutons. Take 1/3 to 1/2 loaf of bread and dice. Melt 1/4 cup butter in
        pan and fry diced bread until lightly browned and crisp.


        6 pounds potato peeled and grated will make about 15 potato balls. Keep a little water

        in bottom of pot of grated potatoes to keep from turning pink. When ready to make
        potato balls put mixture into a cloth bag and squeeze out all the excess water.


        Take a big pot and fill half way with water and bring to a full boil.

        Take 1 pint of milk and 1 pint of water and bring to nearly a boil and add 3/4 cup
        farina mixing constantly so lumps do not form.


        Combine 2 tablespoons salt, farina and potatoes and mix

                                                                                                                      77
