Take a calf's head, 1/2 pound of gravy beef, 1 carrot, 1 turnip, 1/2 head of celery, 1 onion stuck with 3 cloves, bunch of herbs, 10 peppercorns, blade of mace, salt, 3 ounces of bacon or ham, 1 glass of sherry, 2 quarts of water, 1/2 juice of a lemon. Wash and bone the head. Tie the meat in a cloth and chop the bones, put the meat, bones and half the vegetables and seasoning in a stew pan with the water, allow it to boil up and skim well.

Draw it on one side, and allow it to simmer gently for 10 minutes; when clarified, strain through a clean clothe, add the stock, some force-meat balls, and pieces of the head served in the soup.
