Thank you for posting this. This sounds interesting. I've got to try this.

Bacon will strain through the strainer?

Fresh bread? or stale, drier bread. Or should you toast the bread? Just
seems difficult to strain fresh, soft bread. And messy.

Fresh parsley? I would assume so, but again, dried would seem to grind in
a mortar easier.

I would prefer seeing the recipe unless they are real long. I like
being able to refer to it now. It also makes it easier for me to add
directly to a file such as this one to my soup-msg file. I admit that
it then ends up two places on the web, but someone looking for soup
may more easily find it this way. For this reason, I hope you will
continue mentioning when you are posting it from the Miscellany and
if it is not in add editions, which edition it is in.
