Ärende: RE: liver & gizzards 509
================================
Hola Michael
Happy Holidays to ya!

->  HN> I had to go to Seattle yesterday, to 
->  HN> Pike Place Market...to get Annie's 
->  HN> special Decaf Apricot Tea...and 
-> 
-> Ah yes, special decaf apricot tea. I remember
-> that place.
-> 
Pricey but it's pretty much the only spot
where I can get a good selection of loose
leaf decaf teas. Along with the decaf apricot
which I know she dotes on, I got her 1/2 pound
of decaf "August peach", which she has tried
and pronounced delightful..and two samples
(at $44 a pound you don't buy a bunch on
spec unless you're pretty confident in the 
answer) of decaf earl grey tea. So far she's
tried the "Victorian" and liked it fine, the
other has yet to be tested.

->  HN> since I was already there...and it
->  HN> was close enough to "lunch" time,
->  HN> I stopped by the liver and gizzard
->  HN> spot...got 1/2 pound of each to nibble
->  HN> on as I drove home.....ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
-> 
-> Last time I was there, I got half a pound
-> mixed, and they gave me all gizzards and
-> one liver on top. The gizzards were great;
-> the liver was crumbly and overdone.
->
I remembered that so I ordered a 1/2 pound
of each and they came in separate bags...the
gizzards were perfect...the liver was the same
as when you got it...a bit overdone and dry.
The folks who own it now are Korean rather
than the Chinese family who originally (well
as far back as I can remember) owned it. I 
wonder if that's what the difference in taste
and quality comes from. Still, if I were in the
area, and it was "lunchish" time (or anywhere
near it) I'd still get an order...gizzards for sure
and maybe a few livers as well....(grin)!
 
-> Actually, I'd ordered a pound, and the girl
-> had misheard me. So I also had a chicken thigh
-> (very big, very juicy, very nice, a tad too
-> salty) as well.
->
Didn't get any other parts this
time...gizzards and liver was 
what I was jonesing for...so 
that's what I got! 
 
-> MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
-> 
->       Title: Mrs. Talmadge's Roast 'possum
->  Categories: Game
->       Yield: 4 Servings
-> 
->       1    Possum, dressed
->            -(formal?casual?)
Tux maybe...he already has
a tail! (grin)
chat with you soon!
