1 lb caribou
1 oil; for browning meat

2 bay leaves
4 juniper berries
2 cloves
1/2 cup white wine
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce

Trim the meat from the bones and cube in coarse dice. Simmer the bones in water or stock with the bay leaves, juniper and cloves for about 2 hours. Remove the bones and strain the stock. Return the broth to the pot. In a skillet brown the meat in a little oil or bacon fat. Add to the pot. Add the remaining ingredients except the peas and simmer 1/2 hr or more. Add the peas minutes before serving. This soup is best re-heated the second day.
