And beer.
Originally posted by jac The wife's favourite treat if we get a caribou is the head. The whole head, skinned and roasted. Even if she doesn't get a friend over, it's stripped down to bone in 30 to 40 minutes. Eyes, crispy cartilage from the ears, brain, tongue - the whole thing. It's like watching a very hungry Pirahhna.
Then she complains all evening that she ate too much. Go figure.
I've had halibut head. All but the eyes. Gave them to the Japanese chef who prepared the head as a thank you gift.
That way I didn't have to refuse them.

Sure, why not?
Originally posted by Parallax I'm not sure I could handle the eyes.
Read my response to Jac.

I know. But the food is excellent!

Originally posted by stevebrot Sooo...what is the difference between escargot and abalone or conch? The size of the shell, perhaps? All three are snails.
Yeah, but the abalone and conch have a much better flavor.
Same for razor clams.
Like these:
Dug them myself. They are great dredged in panko and seared quickly in a hot skillet, and the smaller bits make a fantastic chowder.
Originally posted by stevebrot That goes for the roosters too...
Roosters lay eggs?
Originally posted by stevebrot I never saw the episode, but got the joke immediately when reading your post.
Me too!
Originally posted by waterfall well Native Americans treasured the beast's skull and we now know that the calory and fat content of brain and organs exceeds llean muscle tissue. So when it is very cold outside, eat brains instead of chicken fingers!
Chickens have fingers?
Well I never!
