Variations & Tips
To keep the spirit of this four-ingredient, Depression-era style meal, try to make changes that stay simple and thrifty. For a smokier flavor, you can swap the butter for 3 tablespoons of rendered bacon fat or a small knob of salt pork, but keep the overall fat amount about the same so the broth stays light. If you prefer a meatier broth without adding more ingredients, use a rich homemade chicken or ham stock in place of the vegetable broth.
