Pooling resources and working as a team will always beat individual performers Let's go and build stronger teams! Bull. Here is what it really teches us: //////////////////// Ingredients for Turtle Soup Recipe For green-turtle soup take: 3 pints clear white stock 1 can green turtle 1 onion 2 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon flour ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon paprika 1 lemon ½ glassful sherry 6 cloves 6 peppercorns 1 bay leaf 1 blade mace 1 teaspoon mixed sweet herbs Instructions Simmer the turtle meat for an hour in the stock, with the sweet herbs and spices tied loosely in a piece of cheesecloth. Slice the onion and cook it in the butter, but do not let it brown much; add the flour to the onion and butter, and stir until smooth. Add this to the hot soup with the salt and paprika; let it simmer until thoroughly blended, then add the sherry and the fat meat. Serve with a very thin slice of lemon in each plate. Egg balls or hard-boiled egg-yolks cut in quarters may be served with the soup. //////////////////////////// Rabbit in beer Eating the Easter Bunny is a family tradition at our place, and this is a great way to prepare it. You need: - 1 rabbit - 1 onion - 3 carrots - garlic powder - bouquet garni (or at least some bay leaves) - plain flour - salt and pepper - worcesteshire sauce - seeded mustard - stubby of beer - olive oil Method: Cut your rabbit into 6 pieces using kitchen shears, and pat the pieces dry. Take a small hand-full of flour, and mix in some salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste. Put the rabbit pieces into a plastic shopping bag with the flour mix, then tumble it all around until the rabbit is nicely coated. Heat some oil and lightly brown the rabbit pieces two or three at a time, so the pan isn't too crowded. Remove from the pan and put onto kitchen paper. Throw in the onion and garlic, and cook till the onion starts going golden around the edges. Add some worcesteshire sauce and mustard for flavour, then turn the pot down to low. Place the rabbit pieces on top of the vegetables and pour in a whole stubby of beer. Leave to simmer very gently for an hour or so, stirring it gently every ten minutes or so. Once the meat is starting to fall off the bones, it's ready to eat! /////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
