My OCD Chinese friend raises turtles and tortoises. He said they eat small animal hay, romaine lettuce, and red hibiscus flowers. No meat!

I don't know nothing about feeding no turtles or tortoises. My friend has a colony of them. They just congregate around his house. I suspect that there some kind of magnetic abnormality around his house.

He feeds the tortoises the diet I described. I think he feeds the turtles pellet food. Oddly enough, the turtles have pretty good eyesight. They'll just jump in the water when they see me coming.

Snapping turtles do that. Often seen up on a log in the water.
Come too close and they drop right off and disappear quickly.

I don't know nothing about feeding no turtles or tortoises. My friend has a
colony of them. They just congregate around his house. I suspect that there
some kind of magnetic abnormality around his house.

He feeds the tortoises the diet I described. I think he feeds the turtles
pellet food. Oddly enough, the turtles have pretty good eyesight. They'll
just jump in the water when they see me coming.

They lied. Whoever have them to you got that produce from a food
bank, they're not CSA boxes if they contain mostly the same stuff
(potatoes and onions) and they're "full". They're "banana boxes",
right? (you'll deny it but I won't believe you).

CSA's don't send people a ton on of just a couple things. And they
couldn't have collected that much without some of it going bad in
the meantime. Unless it came from a food bank...

What surprises me is that they can spot me before I can spot them. You can hear them plopping into the water when I come down the path. Beats me why they feel the need to hide. Those guys were born and raised in captivity - what the heck do they have to fear? Nuttin'.

That guy is awful handy because if we find a turtle or tortoise, we can give it to him and they'll live happily ever after in some kind of turtle fairyland. We all need a friend that we can dump animals upon.

The great thing about it is that they come in their own bowls. How great is that? It's awesome! When the zombie apocalypse come down, I expect to be eating turtle soup. After that, it's cat soup. When things get really desperate, I'll open a can of Spam. I pray to Jesus that that it never comes to that.

That guy is awful handy because if we find a turtle or tortoise, we can give
it to him and they'll live happily ever after in some kind of turtle
fairyland. We all need a friend that we can dump animals upon.

The great thing about it is that they come in their own bowls. How great is
that? It's awesome! When the zombie apocalypse come down, I expect to be
eating turtle soup. After that, it's cat soup. When things get really
desperate, I'll open a can of Spam. I pray to Jesus that that it never comes
to that.

I had turtle soup at Owen Brennan's restaurant in Memphis. It was
absolutely delicious. And no, it is NOT served in turtle shells, it's
served in regular soup bowls. Owen Brennan's is an offshoot of
Brennan's Restaurant in New Orleans, Louisiana. dsi1 is just running
off at the mouth again.

https://www.brennansneworleans.com/recipes/turtle-soup/

Instructions

Over medium-high heat, melt the butter in a heavy 7-quart saucepan.
Add the turtle meat and garlic.
Cook until the meat is no longer pink, about five minutes, stirring
occasionally.
Stir in the onions, celery, sweet peppers, kosher salt, and pepper.
Cook until the vegetables start to become translucent, about 10
minutes.
Add the tomatoes and cook about five minutes, stirring often so the
bottom of the pan does not scorch.
Reduce the heat to medium.
Dust the vegetables with the flour and cook five minutes, stirring
constantly and scraping the pan bottom clean so the flour does not burn.
Slowly add the stock, stirring and scraping the pan bottom
constantly to prevent dough balls from forming in the soup.
Stir in the worcestershire, pepper sauce, parsley and thyme.
Simmer 30 minutes.
Add the eggs, spinach, lemon zest, lemon juice and sherry.
Continue simmering 10 minutes more.

You, Ophelia, wouldn't be likely to try this. Even if you could find
turtle meat, the soup contains pepper, peppers and [hot] pepper sauce.
Can't have anything spicy!

It's not really a spicy soup. It was delicious.

I've had turtle soup whenever my BIL and boys caught turtles.
Very good stuff.

I've never had freshly caught/made turtle soup. After I had the turtle
soup at Owen Brennan's I mentioned I'd had some good turtle soup to my
father. He said Ooooh! Turtle soup! He told me he and his brothers
used to catch turtles in the creek and bring them home so their mother
could make soup. This was in Pennsylvania. Dad said they were snapping
turtles. I loved the turtle soup I tasted, but I wouldn't go out of my
way to eat it.

Turtle hunting usually (in my growing up area) happened in winter
after all the other hunting seasons were over. They (BIL+) would
stand in the creek or the edge of river bank and hunt in the turtle
burrows in the river bank. I did have some turtle meat from their
lake in northern Wisconsin in the summertime. Always good.
I envy you some of the foods you are able to get in the south east.
It's always location, location, location
Your recipe sound delicious,
