Did you know that , like sweetcorn , the human body can't digest pidgeon,apparently thats why it's usually mixed with something else.My favourite, wood pidge and guineefowl pie

This is fast turning into a recipe thread. Not that I mind. Just would be nice to be able to put the ideas into practice.

Well it shows that pests can be turned into fantastic food including some weeds.

Totally agree. Tell you what though, I'd like that recipe, pal, buddy, mate!!!

[yoanbob]

mm don want that recipee too.

burnie you can digest sweet corn (maize) and its very good for you, you cant digest the membrane on the outside of the ears, so to get the benifits you have to make sure you chew it properly, so its healthier to eat it off the cob rather than seperate as we tend to chew it more this way, didnt know that about pigeons tho.

Strange that, I would have thought pigeon breast would have been very easy to digest as it is not stringy like other meats and resembles lambs liver in texture.
Only eat sweetcorn raw off the cob anyway so no problems there!
Still got quite a few sweetcorn in lottie and they save me having to take bait if I do an all day stint!

Hi!!
Everybody with the basic principle of cooking and with the right ingredients can make eventually a decent meal, but the secret of a good chef is fire and water and whatever is around you either hopping, flying, swimming or growing and adjusting them to collective or individual taste. An interesting recepies book which I came across during my training as a chef was the calendar mark issued during the last war and it shows how immaginative people can be when there is not food around also known as mock recepies
