Sarah and I lived in Australia for five years and learned to cook kidney
properly and loved it. We still cook it occasionally when we can get it fresh. We also hunt , kill and eat deer as a major part of our diet (we eat very little beef) and find that most people that profess a dislike for wild meat actually like it until we tell them what it is. My philosophy about food is...if it smells good and tastes good then I don't care what it is! We both grew up poor in the hills of W.Va. and now can afford to eat as we like and yet find simple ethnic food most to our liking.

Can someone tell me weather it is possible to feed one-self during a high sea cruising trip on a 36' sailing boat just by fishing? I just dream to buy a boat and cruise around the world, but have zero experience so far. Hope this hasn't already been mentioned..... but the middle of the ocean is a very barren place so unless you're sure that your passage follows the combination of structures, currents and seasonal elements that hold fish you may end up a tad peckish at times, and most likely at times when your furtherest from any alternative. You could always learn preserving techniques to store your catch when it is in abundance....... Cheers |
