The phrase is used for "Still Life" in French, though it has other obvious connotations,
I went out with the 16 bore but without a dog yesterday, in a brief work break, to try to bag a cottontail for dinner. I though the doves had mostly left "downhill" to the Rio but a flock rose as I approached the dirt tank on the ranch. I fired once and one fell-- first quarry of the season.

What's your favorite dove recipe?
ReplyDeleteFor one dove!
ReplyDelete"Dove on A Toothpick"
ReplyDeleteIngredients:
1 dove, breasted
1 strip, fatty bacon
1 jalepeno pepper
1 toothpick
Preparation:
Tuck pepper into dove meat. Wrap stuffed breast in fatty strip of bacon. Pierce with toothpick. Grill to taste.
Serves: 1 very small person.
I think the Chinese approach would work: stir-fry the dove meat and cook a big pot of rice.
ReplyDeleteIs that the interior of a 'new' truck?
If I don't get more soon that would be the way, or its Italian equivalent, shredded in sauce over polenta or over risott'.
ReplyDeleteBut if I do maybe Doves Wyatt Earp?
Oh and-- no, still the '91. No changes he said sighing.
ReplyDeleteMatt-
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite dove recipes, using half or a third of a seeded pepper, and an equally sized stick of sharp cheddar along side of the pepper.
"I fired once and one fell"
ReplyDeleteA friend's favorite passage from a certain book: "'Four!' he said with a grin. 'Uh, we usually shoot them flying.' 'That's why you miss'".
md: The cheese is a good addition. A friend brought over some marinaded venison backtrap one night last year, cubed and wrapped in bacon with pepper jack cheese and a jalepeno. Toothpick through all. You could not grill them wrong. We tried, but every one of them turned out delicious.
