Rollmops are bloody delicious. I seem to be the only person under retirement age in the UK who eats them though.

Big Bad Voodoo Lou posted:HP Sauce-loving American here. I definitely prefer it to American Heinz 57 and A-1 sauces. American 'HP Steak Sauce' isn't quite the same as UK HP Sauce, though. (A-1 is about the closest equivalent I can think of to brown sauce other than that, but A-1 is quite a bit runnier)

I like HP Fruity.  P.S. Believe it or not, we can get UK imports here in 'Muricah.

Arglebargle III posted:Stinky tofu I had some during my stay in Shanghai a couple years ago. I am a very adventurous eater- blue cheeses that make your mouth go numb, dodgy street meats, fish sauce- all awesome. But stinky tofu filled my mouth with the unmistakable scent of dog poo poo for the entire night. Not enough beer and chili paste in the world could wipe that out.

I've never seen an Americanized HP sauce, just the imported variety. Hijo Del Helmsley posted:Rollmops. Man, I love pickled herring, but I could do without the gherkins. I'd love to have these with onions or even pickled peppers.

Well Shanghai and the middle part of the east coast in general is known for having pretty bad food. I had stinky tofu in Changsha.

If you want to get down on some really good gator ribs in Florida give Skippers Smokehouse in Tampa a try, they are great. There also used to be a taco joint in Ybor City called Memas Alaskan Tacos that had gator tacos that were awesome but sadly is now closed.

Suspect Bucket posted:That's because it's snake. It has very little fat. Just throwing it on the barbeque wont do much for the flavor, it needs marinade and sauce. It's also originally not something you sought out as a culinary experience, it's much more "The family wants meat and all i have are these three rattlers i kilt in the garden". I had rattlesnake when I was a kid marinated in teriyaki sauce then grilled. Stumbled on the rattlesnake out small game hunting with my dad, figured it counted as small game. Very easy to clean and skin, and the skin is pretty easy to tan. I wouldn't go out looking for them, but it was a fine enough incidental meal. What's great is that even after they're beheaded, they wriggle around like mad. Totally grossed my sister out, which was a bonus.

I think in the last month a chef was killed because the snake head he decapitated managed to bite him, so be extra careful... http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/08/26/newser-cobra-kills-chef/14619677/

When killing any reptile, be kind and pith the brain. That means stabbing them in the head and wiggling the knife around to destroy the brain.quote:"Some of the many ways in which reptiles are "killed" are mentioned later on but one method which is quite commonly used is decapitation. Generally speaking, in mammals and birds, for example, quickly severing the head from the rest of the body may cause immediate or near immediate loss of consciousness and a very rapid death. It might not be describable as 'humane' but the period of post-severance life in the head is almost certainly short. Although meaning certain death, decapitation is certainly not a rapid or humane way of killing reptiles. As hard to believe as it seems, the heads cut from reptiles live on well after the horrific event of decapitation itself. It is not a case of "nerves causing the head to move unconsciously" as most people think. The heads, and parts of the neck if still attached, are alive and some may attempt to bite objects which approach; the eyes may follow movement and the pupils contract and dilate in response to light and dark; they can blink and in the case of snakes and lizards, flick out and in their tongues to test the air for scent and even move slightly if enough of their neck is left. http://www.anapsid.org/decap.html Remember, a big part of ethical sportsmanship and animal harvesting is providing the quickest, least painful death possible. Use best possible practices!

There's probably a lot of weird Australian dishes that escape my mind at the moment. Odd choices of meats, certainly, since the general approach to native animals in Australia is to appraise them hungrily and try and work out what they taste like barbecued. But I digress - South Australia's addition to the world of gourmet food:  The Meat Pie Floater That is a meat pie, served in a bowl of pea soup, covered with tomato sauce. Best consumed while staggeringly drunk.

d3rt posted:What would I do with this? Chile Verde or Rojo with Pork meat is really good, Try it I really enjoy using the fresh version it's really easy to make you buy them like  that, take the spines off and then you can fry it with just a little salt kind of like a steak, takes longer you gotta fry it until it will be a bit darker green color and soft all the way through you can eat it just like thatc, but I like putting two over medium eggs on top makes it really dope and a bit healthier than putting it on top of a fried corn tortilla. d3rt posted:pickled pork skins is a new one for me. does anyone know what these are like?
