Belgium. Associated with Belgium by the book is about Belgian cookery (Cooking, Belgian); the recipe itself names no place (confidence 0.4). "Associated with" means only that the evidence named here links this recipe to that place. A recipe isn't labelled as representing an entire country because a source associates it with one, and regional origins are kept where the source gives them.

Ingredients
Method
- Into a quart of boiling water throw lightly four tablespoonfuls of semolina, so that the grains are separated.
- Let it boil for a quarter of an hour, with pepper and salt.
- Take the tureen and put the yolk of an egg in it with a bit of butter the same size, mix them with a fork and pour in a teacupful of hot water with extract of meat in it, as strong as you wish.
- Quickly pour in the semolina soup and serve it at once.
- This is a quickly made and inexpensive dish, besides which it is a nice one.
- [Madame Alphonse F.]
