Turtle preparation: Catch a "mud" turtle at local pond. Cut off head (remember to place a stick in mouth to keep head from returning to shell). Scald turtle. Remove outer layer of shell (part with designs) and skin legs (toenails come off now).

Boil the turtle until tender. De-bone meat (white meat is under shell). Mix all ingredients and bring to a rolling boil. Serve hot.
