Mock Turtle Soup. Have your calf's head well cracked, and then remove the brains. After soaking in clear water, put it in the pot with a large onion and enough water to cover it. Add boiling water as the water boils down. Cook until the meat falls from the bone. Strain the liquor and throw the meat in it. Season to taste with pepper and salt, and add a dash of ground allspice
