Turkey, Boiled, and Stuffed with Tongue. — Take a small boiled pickled tongue. Cut ott' the root entirely, leaving only a small portion of the fat. Pluck, draw, singe, and bone a turkey, and cut off the legs, but not the wings. Nearly fill the breast with good veal forcemeat, push the tongue into the centre of the stuffing, and sew the skin over the back securely. Truss the bird firmly, and restore it as nearly as possible to its original shape. Cover the breast with thin shoes of fat bacon
