HAMILTON. Remove the brains from a scalded calf’s head, cov- . er with water and boil until tender. Take the head from the liquor, and save the tongue and the nicest of the gelatinous skin, to cool. Strain the liquor and set it away to cool. Boil at the same time, in a separate kettle, a four-pound shank of beef. When it has be- gun to boil, and has been skimmed, fry brown in a lit- tle butter, one sliced onion and one small sliced carrot. Add- these to this soup, and boil slowly until you have a fine thick stock. Strain, cool and skim. The following day put the two stocks together, season well with salt, pepper, a dash of cayenne pepper and a cup of sherry wine. Cut a portion of the calf’s tongue, which has been skinned, into dice; also some of the clear skin of the calf’s head. Put these into the soup, make small balls to imitate the turtle eggs, from the hard- boiled yolks of two eggs and the unboiled yolk of one; salt and use flour enough to make stiff. Have the brains boiled in salted water, beat a portion of these smooth, season -and thicken with cracker crumbs and a very little four. Make this also into balls. Drop these balls into the soup and boil fifteen minutes before using. This recipe makes a large kettle full of soup. It should be a strong jelly wen cold, and can be kept some time. 6 CHOICE RECPIES BLACK BEAN SOUR. MRS. HAMILTON. One pint black beans. A small joint or shank of beef. A slice of salt pork.
