  Clarifying Cloudy Consomme:
  
       Mix vegetables with egg whites.
  
       When consomme is cold, add the vegetables and egg
  whites mixture and bring to a boil, then lower the
  heat.  A crust will form on the top. Let the consomme
  simmer until clear.
  
       Strain by moving crust to the side and pouring
  through cheese-cloth without breaking the crust.
