Escargots, cuisses de grenouille anyone?

You like it don't you? :o: I suppose it goes in same category as snails and frog legs.....

2 liters of blood and 2 and a half pounds of i'm guessing fat with a bit of meat (if "spek" is "speh" like we have here, that has 50% fat and 50% meat.)...lmao....double gross if "spek" has double meaning like "speh" does here and it means, literally chunks of fat. Coincidentally , the white parts in my pics inside the blood sausage are exactly that.

If you're in for gross things, i can present to you "zolca", rough google translate of recipe:

You need:
pork head , tail , claw 2 , pork skin, pepper, bay leaf , onion, garlic , salt
Cut pig's head , tail and hooves and put everything to cook in a large pot , pour 4-5 liters of cold water . Add pepper, bay leaf , garlic and salt to taste . cook on low heat until the meat does not withdraw from the bone until the water almost evaporates .

Meat harvested out soup Strain and cool. Fat layer accumulated in the broth recorded and saved . Chilled meat is cut into pieces , remove the bones and then season and mix. Pour in the broth , weight , and that the bile harden. use it until the next day .

Flan cut into pieces and serve with bread or you can do as a salad : with oil, vinegar and onion.

It has a gelatinous texture, not unlike snails but less gooey and it wobbles if you'd touch it like it is on above picture and is just gross.

Nine pages going and I see pork still on the menu. While you guy's keep the "Pork War" going I had thought. Just something to muse and reflect on.

The fact that we Muslim's do not eat pork ( although I have it on authority of Cardinal Richeliu that it is permissible to eat in extenuating circumstances ) translate into us being the Pigs best friend in manner of speaking.

Every Pig's dream is that all the world converts to Islam. So a la Animal Farm "Muslims are good Christians are bad" bleet all the Pigs of the world.
 
why there is only pork written in school restaurant menu??
When someone in your family makes dinner, do they make several alternatives,
or do you get one main dish?
Sometimes they may make food which you don't want.

When I attended school, there was only one alternative, and either you ate it,
or you didnt.
Sometimes the one meal will consist of pork, and other things like potatoes.
Other days it will be beef, or fish or whatever.

The request that it never should be pork, is what is at issue here,
and that is asking for preferential treatment.

Interesting thought, but pigs won't be bred unless there is a market for it.

Well, let's get real. Where do these dishes originate from? Farmer country, places that aren't necessarily rich (no wastage) and where people work hard outside all day (any fat and proteine is good). It fits in that kind of working man's diet.

Blood sausage in France: Boudin Noir

If you want to hammer home what it means to be French > snails and froglegs on the menu.

Non-pork: Baked camembert, Moules Marinières, Blanquette de Veau, Hachis Parmentier, Steak Tartare, Pot-au-feu, Cassoulet (provided a good sausage selection), Confit de Canard, Bouillabaisse, Ratatouille, Navarin D’Agneau, boeuf bourguignon, Coq au Vin

You eat bone marrow as well, don't you?!
I agree with farmer country, no wastage philosophy...still...taste wins.
Now make no mistake, i'm fairly adaptable, if hunger loomed somehow, i'd eat these dishes too...but, thankfully, am far away from that position. (/knocks on wood 3 times)

I make soup with bone with marrow, sure. Top chefs work with all parts of animals. It's a matter of choosing a good preparation. I mean, what are chicken nuggets?

Why...chicken nuggets are the best part of chicken. Mc'D's says so!!!

As for the chefs, ya, they work with all sorts of ingredients, but there's a thing called prime cut or best cut or w/e that indicates best pieces of meat from a particular animal. I'll have some of that please, thanks! :agree:

I'm not advertising organ meat or blood, per se. Merely answering questions about those. Still, with a good base product and some kitchen care, you can make almost anything taste good.
 
So Indians fight against Cow is instigating communalism.... When its pork in france Muslims have problem. As far as i know france did not go and invite muslims living in france...france is a nation of French people... So what is the issue here? How many muslim countries respect the sentiments of other religions living in their own muslim country?
 
Not everyone in France is dying to eat sausages....Vegetarian are also on the rise - based on choice...just like religion is also based on choice!
No but your constitution says equality for all...where is the equality for those who choose not to eat pork?

Equality does not mean muslims say stop pork because we live here. Stop wearing western clothes because its majority muslims in this ghetto... Equality means beef n pork n chicken and fish n vegetables r available...and everyone has their own choice to select and eat what they want too...Equality means allowing everyone to eat or do things as per their wish.

Equality doesnt mean go as refugees to prosperous nations and start claiming victimhood in name of religious sentiments.
 
say stop pork
Kindly show me who is saying that?

I cant be bothered to read the reply of someone quoting me without reading what I wrote but instead quoting me while IMAGINING what I might have written :o:

Need IQ boost? No worries. Try some tasty "Maghaz Karahi" which translates to brain curry and obviously is made of brains of sheep etc.Yum yum.

Fuss has a new name in todays world it is called Isalamophobia....

Why do you think so?

So many other religions live there.. Hindus..buddhist etc. But they dont complain. They send their kids with tiffin to school n kids dont eat that meat.

Same can be done.

Why do muslims want special requirements? Stop pork bcoz we dont like it or we cannot eat it.

The problem is not islamophobia here.. The problem is these people come here as refugees or economic migrants...escape the harsh realities of their own muslim country.. Where they r suppressed and not treated propely...they come here for equality n freedom.

But unfortunately after some years....they want to change these free countries into same hell from where they ran away...

There r already rallies organized in Denmark n Sweden asking for special Shariah laws...

Tell me do Christians or Hindus or Buddhists or any other such people doing such things?

Y only muslims do this?
 
Why do you think so?
:rofl:

Just pick any paper ...90% chances are its screaming something bad about Muslims like the thousands of other Muslims who are not in the paper or the paper isnt talking about are negligible!
they dont complain.
Its not open season yet.....Wait for your turn dont jump the queue! :enjoy:

Why do muslims want special requirements?
What special requirement? The thread title and OP was pork or NOTHING.....

How is that not a showcase of intolerance and forcing your belief down one's throat?

Plus this pork thing is also a Jewish thing! Also a Vegetarian thing! NOT JUST A MUSLIM THING!

Stop pork
Now show me where that is stated...Again imagination running wild?
