Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management (the 1913 edition)
contains a number of excellent recipies for tortoises and the like,
the best (and of course my favourite, although i am yet to try it)
being
Terrapins, boiled.
ingredients - water, terrapins.
personally, i would add a pinch of salt and a knob of butter
yours not very helpfully.
