In a mixing bowl, whip the egg whites slightly. Combine the lean meat,
vegetables, tomato puree, herbs, and spices together. Mix in the egg whites.
In a spigot stock pot, blend the cold chicken stock with the meat mixture.
Place the stock pot on medium heat. Stir the liquid occasionally until the
raft forms. (the liquid should reach 160 degrees). Simmer the soup for 1 1/2
hours, making sure the raft does not break or sink. Remove the first cup of
the consomme from the spigot to remove sediment and discard. Line a china
cap with 5 layers of cheesecloth. Strain the liquid slowly. If the liquid is
cloudy, strain the consomme again with fresh cheesecloth. Season with salt,
hot sauce, and garnishes. This recipe yields 1 gallon of consomme.
