Beef's Head as Stock for Soup

  • 1 beef's head, cut up into small pieces
  • Pepper
  • Salt
  • Catsup
  • Allspice
  • Onions, finely chopped
Boil the cut up pieces of head in a large quantity of water until it is all boiled to pieces. Take out all the bones and boil again until thick. While still hot, season very highly with pepper, salt, catsup, allspice and chopped onions. Put into a mold to get cold.

For a small family, cut a thick slice, say 5 inches square, whenever you want soup in a hurry, adding about a quart of water. It needs to cook for only a few minutes (be patient, you rascal).

By adding a few slices of hard boiled egg and 1/2 cup of good cooking wine, this soup may have very nearly the flavor of mock turtle soup.
