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.
