5 New Food Experiences
- Try out Dominican spaghetti. For a “wild game twist”, use venison instead of beef. Add half a teaspoon of minced garlic, chopped cilantro, very finely chopped onions, sliced red and green peppers, half a cup of milk, a teaspoon of butter, and a chicken bouillon cube. While the original recipe calls for ragù sauce, you can use a Goya or Heinz tomato sauce or paste. Use starchy water and a pasta of your choice.
- Add an explosion of flavor to your venison burgers with Lipton onion soup mix. In a bowl, mash your ground venison with the seasoning, along with bread crumbs to hold the patty together. Alternatively, you can use an egg or pork fat instead of bread crumbs.
- Consider trying snow goose heart. Put the heart on a hot plate and season it with salt and pepper. A friend of AB3 also mentioned that the heart is the best part of the deer. Give it a try, even if it’s just to check another unique experience off your bucket list!
- Known to some as the “trash panda”, raccoon is actually pretty tasty when cooked properly. AB3 finally tried coon for the first time, braised for several hours with a side of sweet potatoes. He may never want to ever take part in the preparation of raccoon, but he would be more than happy to enjoy the final product!
- Jalapeño cheddar deer sticks are, as the kids used to say, the bomb-dot-com!
Three Powerful Quotes
- By no stretch of the imagination am I considered a food connoisseur on any level. I’m just an old country cook.
- I know what I want. Anything that I’m paying for, I’m not experimenting with.
- You know the old adage, “I don’t want to know how the sausage is made?” Well, I don’t want to know how the coon’s made; but I’ll take the final product.
