• 505 Goat

    From MICHAEL LOO@1:123/140 to DALE SHIPP on Saturday, November 03, 2018 11:30:56
    It's too meh to seek out, unless you go to an
    Indian buffet ahd it just appears on your plate.
    Indian buffet is the only place I have ever had goat to eat. There were occasions in the past when we went to a Halal market to get goat for the caregiver of the piano teacher that Gail helped out. Gail does not like
    the idea of goat, even when I pick out a non boney piece to share with
    her. I like it because of the fairly flavorful gravy/sauce it is stewed
    in.

    Any bony meat - even chicken - can be the base for
    a flavorsome sauce. Goat of course has a higher
    ratio of bone to meat (you've seen goats before),
    so essentially it's a bunch of instant goodness
    that you'd have to save bones for weeks to make
    anything comparable with beef. That's why the
    French make demiglace and why the Japanese
    invented tonkotsu.

    I also am pretty much the same way with lamb, Indian buffet only. TTTT,
    If you gave me a blind taste test of goat, lamb and beef -- I might not
    be able to identify which was which. It's all red meat to me.

    These critters if fed similar things will taste
    pretty similar. Grassfed beef is closesr in taste
    to grassfed lamb than it is to cornfed beef. Goat
    I find milder than either, though I've not tasted
    old goat and certainly not old billy goat.

    Not strange at all, and rather nice the way I've
    made it (without dill seed but offering dill weed
    on the side).

    Braised Vermicelli with Kurobuta Pork
    categories: Singapore, main, starch
    servings: 2 to 4

    3 rolls dried vermicelli
    5 c lightly packed shredded carrots
    1 hd cabbage, sliced thin
    - I used Japanese cabbage, it's sweeter
    4 c lightly packed shitake mushrooms, sliced
    500 g kurobuta pork, sliced and marinated in tare
    4 cloves large garlic, minced
    1/2 c dashi stock
    1 ts chicken powder
    1 ts oyster sauce
    1 ts light soy
    salt to taste
    1 ds ground white pepper
    1 Tb canola oil
    1 Tb sesame oil
    fried shallots for garnishing
    sesame seeds for garnishing

    Rehydrate pasta by soaking in water for at least 15 min.

    Fry garlic on medium heat with canola-sesame oil blend
    until fragrant, about 1 min. Careful not to let the
    garlic burn.

    Turn heat up to medium-high, add carrots, toss through
    until softened, about 2 min. Add shitake, stir through
    about 2 min. Add cabbage, toss through until wilted,
    about 2 min.

    In the meantime, fry pork in separate pan until cooked
    through.

    Add vermicelli to the main pan with the vegetables.
    Stir through. Add sauce mixture of dashi, chicken powder,
    oyster sauce and light soy, with 1/2 c water. Let the
    glass noodles simmer and soak up the sauce. Once the
    sauce is almost all soaked up, add cooked pork and stir
    through. Salt to taste, add pepper, and garnish with
    sesame seeds and fried shallots before serving.

    I know that we did not like the beef in England. I'm not sure if it was because it was grass fed as opposed the the way American beef tends to
    be finished on corn. Or, more likely, because of the way it was hung
    and aged. If we got a very lean piece it would be pretty much ok, but
    any fat tasted rancid to us.

    Title: Lemon And Thyme Marinade
    Categories: Marinade, Poultry, Chicken, Thyme, French
    Yield: 4 servings

    2 tb Strained fresh lemon juice
    2 ts Chopped fresh thyme, OR 3/4
    ts Dried, crumbled
    2 tb Olive oil OR vegetable oil

    This is a tangy marinade, containing equal amounts of lemon juice and
    oil, and is good for rich meats like chicken thighs. It can be used
    for chicken breasts too, but their skin should be on for additional
    protection during grilling or broiling. Thyme gives this marinade a
    flavor loved in France, but you can substitute oregano for an Italian
    or Greek accent, or mint or cilantro for a Lebanese touch.

    Mix ingredients in a small bowl.

    Makes about 1/4 cup, enough for about 1 1/2 to 2 lbs poultry.
