Basle Flour Soup

"This comes from a book called "Cooking in Switzerland" This is the traditional soup of the Basle carnival. It is served in the early morning hours after the "Morgenstraich" (the official opening of the Basle carnival) and again after everyone is tired and hungry from the "Gaessle" (when the small, masked groups parade through the streets of Basle)."
