"Why we think cats are psychopaths".
I know there are a lot of cat lovers here and I'm probably going to
get hate mail but they really are psycho beasts. I was showing a
house last Friday and one of those hell creatures in what was
supposed to be an empty place shot out from underneath a bed,
streaked across the room and clawed me. I think it was part lynx on
its mother's side.
They're no worse in that regard than mutts. YAP YAP YAP - CHOMP.
I *much* prefer cats to canines. They're cuter, smaller, and tend to be
much more quiet. They are also not nearly so dependent.
I've posted a number of cat recipes recently - so, in the interests of
fairness .....
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
Title: Stewed Dog (Wedding Style)
Categories: Exotics, Stews, Fruits, Chilies
Yield: 30 Servings
3 kg Dog meat *
1 1/2 c Vinegar
60 Peppercorns; crushed
6 tb Salt
12 cl Garlic; crushed
1/2 c Oil
6 c Onion; sliced
3 c Tomato sauce
10 c Boiling water
6 c Red bell pepper; in strips
6 Bay leaves
1 ts Hot pepper sauce
1 1/2 c Liver spread **
1 Fresh pineapple; cut 1/2"
- thick
First, kill a medium sized dog, then burn off the fur over
a hot fire.
Carefully remove the skin while still warm and set aside
for later (may be used in other recipes)
Cut meat into 1" cubes. Marinade meat in mixture of
vinegar, peppercorn, salt and garlic for 2 hours.
Fry meat in oil using a large wok over an open fire,
then add onions and chopped pineapple and saute until
tender.
Pour in tomato sauce and boiling water, add bell peper,
bay leaf and hot chile sauce.
Cover and simmer over warm coals until meat is tender.
Blend in liver spread and cook for additional 5-7 mins.
* You can substitute lamb for dog. The taste is similar,
but not as pungent.
** smooth liver pate will do as well.
Suggested Wine: San Miguel Beer
Serving Ideas: Rice, naturally.
NOTES: During my wedding reception, my brother-in-law
suggested we add to the feast by having dog stew. Wanting
to be part of the family, and having been subjected to
all sorts of social tests already, I agreed. The result
was... well.. a lot better than I expected. In fact, it
was great!
It was only later I found out that dog should *not* be
served at weddings, as it may make the bride and groom
flight like dogs during the honeymoon. But what the heck.
It didn't seem to have that effect... at least not until
a few years later. :-)
For the faint of heart, you can always substitute lamb
in place of next door's rover, but the meat will not be
as sweet or as rich in flavor.
