              Granny's Creamy Salmon Soup

1 tablespoons butter or margarine 
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 
3 cups milk 
1 slice onion 
1 can (16 ounces) salmon 
salt and pepper 
chopped parsley, for garnish 

Melt butter over medium low heat in a 2-quart saucepan; stir in flour. In a separate saucepan, scald milk with 1 slice of onion; remove onion from milk. Gradually add milk to butter-flour mixture, stirring constantly over low heat. Continue cooking and stirring until milk mixture has thickened. Pick over salmon, removing bones, then add salmon and liquid to thickened milk mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve with a garnish of chopped parsley.
Makes 4 servings.
