Veal and Almonds

The two main ingredients in a Rich Veal Soup are veal and almonds.  The three pounds of veal is cut into pieces and put into a pot with two quarts of water and stewed until it is done to rags.  (Kettle to left).  A quarter pound of sweet almonds are blanched (pictured in the small middle kettle) and pounded in a mortar and pestle until a smooth paste.
