Soup alla Nazionale

Ingredients: Clear soup, savory custard.

Make a savory custard and divide it into three parts, one to be left white, another colored red with tomato, and the third green with spinach. Put a layer of each in a buttered saucepan and cook for about ten minutes, cut it into dice, so that you have the three Italian colors (red, white, and green) together, then put the custard into a soup tureen and pour a good clear soup over it.
