   15                    To 20 lbs. fresh or frozen
                         -turtle meat
    6                    Carrots
    4                    Onions
    1                    Stalk celery, diced fine
      1/2                Gal. Burgundy
    4                    To 5 gals. Povirade sauce
    1       lb           Gelatin
                         Stock pot:
    1       tb           Marjoram
    2       ts           Gumbo file
    1       t            Coriander
    6                    Bay leaves
    1                    Kitchen spoon ground mace
      1/2   oz           Spanish Saffron
    1       lb           Whole anise
   10                    Whole lemons
 
   veal bones
   
   Boil turtle meat until tender; reduce stock and
   clarify. Add ingredients for stock pot. To stock pot
   add carrots, onions, celery, Burgundy, and Povirade
   sauce. Tighten with gelatin. This recipe will yield
   approximately 10 gallons. Under refrigeration, the
   soup will hold for several weeks.
   
   Well, I hope this recipe helps in the use of turtles,
   though I suspect you will have to have a very large
   family or like turtle soup a lot, or scale the recipe
   to a more manageable quantity.
