       I remember someone asking for a recipe for cheese soup.
       This recipe is untried but from a famous restaurant in
       Dublin, Ireland called Snapples:


                          CHEESE SOUP

             1 oz. flour
             1 oz. butter
           1/4 lb parmesan cheese - freshly grated
           1/4 lb gruyere cheese - freshly grated
       1 & 1/2 pint good chicken stock
           1/4 pint cream
               salt & pepper to taste
             2 egg whites - stiffly beaten
             1 dessertspoon of chives or parsley - chopped


     Heat butter in saucepan and blend in flour.  Add stock.  Simmer
     very slowly for 15 minutes.  Add cheese and cream, checking 
     seasoning.  Serve individually with beaten egg white and sprinkle
     with chives or parsley.

             I'm not sure what you do with the egg whites but
             they don't sound too important.  I'd probably leave
             them out.  I'm not into raw eggs.
