Stuffed Dormice / Ancient Rome
Prepare a stuffing of dormouse meat or pork, pepper, pine nuts, broth, asafoetida, and some garum (substitute anchovy paste.) Stuff the mice and sew them up. Bake them in an oven on a tile. Mice in Cream (Souris à la crème) Skin, gut and wash some fat mice without removing their heads. Cover them in a pot with ethyl alcohol and marinate 2 hours. Cut a piece of salt pork or sowbelly into small dice and cook it slowly to extract the fat. Drain the mice, dredge them thoroughly in a mixture of flour, pepper, and salt, and fry slowly in the rendered fat for about 5 minutes. Add a cup of alcohol and 6 to 8 cloves, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Prepare a cream sauce, transfer the sautéed |

:laugh::laugh: That's a good one. I prefer mine fried up crispy with some grits on the side.
Rhertz: last year I deboned some chopped them in a quisinart with green onion, shaved carrotts and made Steamed Dumpring (pot stickers). Imperial Cathay would have been impressed. Of course I did not add card board to mine like some China Town vendors I read about.:laugh: |

Nothing wrong with eating squirrel IMHO. I never done it but my grandpa sho did.. :D Now that I think about it, hampsters look pretty good, about the size of quail or dove. I love to eat small birds.... Why not animals? The quail at Chianti's is my all time favorite recurring dish over the decades. Mrs Hertz loves to watch me pick through the little bird bones..... Ummm Umm Good! |

The quail at Chianti's is my all time favorite recurring dish over the decades. Mrs Hertz Boy Hertz you're really pulling me out there, if I'm not mistaken this quail either has a blackberry suace or maybe a cherry suace. I may be thinking of another restaraunt though. I remember eating quail there. The best i've had is home cooked. By the way Bau Chau (if that's haow it's spelled) on Youree sells an excellent Dumpring sauce. |
I think the quail is served in a marsala sauce. They have a veal dish that has a blackberry sauce. I'm not crazy about fruity sauces or veal.
I guess watching birds is one thing and eating birds in an entirely different matter. :D I love both. |
I think you're right. Something there has a blackberry sauce that Mrs. Hurl likes,Blahh. The Cherry quail I had was at Big Cedar Lodge in MO. It was GROSS. Everything else there was awesome. I think that is when I quit eating gamebirds at restaraunts. I'll stick with the rats.

It all taste like chicken :rolleyes: I like my cooking over any restaurant. I like to see it prepared and cooked unlike Micky D's spit burgers. :eek:
