What should I make with this pile of diced goat? Not jerk/Jamaican curry. Has bones so not pie suitable.

[โ€“] SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

You could stew it to get the bones out then make pie.

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

I could, but expect to be coated in paint much of the day.

Slow cooked indian curry like this

Goat slaps when cooked and seasoned right.

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That looks promising. Am def a cardamom fan.

'Sweetish' spices work really well with goat. Birria tacos use goat and cinnamon. You're going to feast like a medieval royal.

Ha! Medieval cookery is actually a thing of mine. Some [ingredient], enough, until it be done. Fuck your scales & thermometers!

[โ€“] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh yeah, throw things into a pressure/slow cooker (or cauldron if at hand), let the ingredients dance and get to know each other and serve with crusty bread of some sort.

Quaff some ale or mead after for full effect.

I'll need an email address. Or you could find some sort of access to EEBO yourself??

[โ€“] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'll check out EEBO (don't share my email online...personal policy).

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Very understandable. I'm sure the is a platform but I'm l more personally piratical than otherwise

google The Forme of Cury - lots of copies available online in various formats.

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

Form of is far from all there is, but it's physical is totally special
