Mom said that as a child on the farm there was not always a farm raised turkey in the barnyard and that many times several wild turkeys would be hunted by her brothers and brought home for holiday meals. Her mother would chop up and use the left over cooked turkey meat for this recipe. The children learned at an early age to find and harvest the small mushrooms in the woods, and they would also harvest the very small wild onions that grew on their property. These were the ingredients, along with the fresh cream from the cows milk that her mother used to prepare this recipe.
