pepper and salt. Stir hard-boiled yolks of eggs until creamy; add the raw yolk, the pepper and salt. Put the little saucepan they are stirred in on top of the kettle; cook until it becomes a solid ball, then take off the stove and roll in different sized little eggs. These eggs are used for all terrapins, black bean soup, mock turtle soup, etc. TURTLE ( Tortue ) Turtle is of the same family and is in season the same time as the terrapin, but the meat is very much different. They are very seldom bought and killed for private families as they come very large and are mostly used for green turtle soup. It is a very ex¬ pensive shellfish, but when required it is generally bought jellied in cans, which the recipe Green Turtle Soup will show. If small turtles can be secured, they are killed, opened, and cooked in the same way as terrapin, made into soups and similar dishes as the calf’s head. FROG LEGS ( Pattes de Grenouilles ) Frogs are in season all the year round, but are at their best in July, August, and September. Frog legs are prepared in many different ways, as the following recipes will show.
