Melt 1/4 cup chicken fat in saucepan; blend in flour; add milk slowly, stirring constantly. Pour mixture slowly into stock; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened. Drop chicken balls into soup; heat for 5 minutes more; serve. Yield: 4 to 6 servings. From <The Progressive Farmer’s Southern Country Cookbook>, by the editors of the ‘Progressive Farmer Magazine’.
