Turtle Soup

I have at home a recipe for turtle soup. Now I always was told turtle are dirty and remember them being banned for sale in pet stores as children were putting them in their mouth and not washing hands after touching and getting very sick. I think some died. I am not sure if it was botulism or not.

So how then does one prepare such a critter for cooking?

Also is it not very strong?

First you get a hammer to crack the shell. THen place turtle in pot to cook the meat. After which you add it to vegatables and bring to a slow boil to have a nice turtle soup. smile.gif

So any old turtle will do? I know in the islands it is sea turtles, but I read painted turtles to the trick also. Cracking it is a great idea or one never get into it...But do you clean it first or just quick rinse in water and plop in alive and well? Sorry but I want to try it this spring when my wife is not home....My cousin says he can get me the turtle he has a lake at his house.

So you cook it then remove and scape out the meat and return it to the pot?

I chop off the head to kill it before I crack the shell. I usually use snapping turtles as they are common around here. I scrap the meat out and rinse it off real well. Then I place it in water to boil it for a time to cook it before adding it in to my veggies. IF you have a cousin who can get you a turtle then that works. Should I tell you it tastes like chicken biggrin.gif

Yes Get a snapping turtle I think it is the better tasting turtle. I have not had sea turtle so I can not tell you how that tastes ever even if I get to eat it.

I can't imagine eating a turtle in any form. They are such lovely creatures I will feel guilty doing it even if it tasted good.
