#Jumbo Store

[kedreeva]

Do you have a recipe for quail you would be willing to share? I saw a six-pack of frozen quail at my local grocery store, and I would love to give them a try, but they're a new-to-me ingredient! Thank you.

I was advised to marinate in ranch and pan fry, by someone that eats wild hunted quail, and I'm told that pan frying before baking is best, but honestly my favorite is quail pot pie rather than eating the quail on its own. They're EXCEPTIONALLY easy to dry out, especially if they are skinless (and mine are because it's too much trouble to pluck)

You chop onions and garlic, put in a large pan, a cup of water (or I use stock I made with quail bones from previous meals, but chicken stock would probably be fine), some salt if you haven't used stock, and the whole quail carcasses. Cover and simmer low-medium until the quail are done through (usually like 45 mins? For me on my stove, you would need to experiment to be sure on yours), turning over once during cooking. While that's going, chop potatoes and start them boiling, then chop carrots and add them halfway through the potato boil so they're not mushy. I thaw some frozen broccoli but don't cook it further, just chop it up. I usually also chop mushrooms up and don't cook them.

Once the quail are done, remove as much meat as you can, chop any large pieces into smaller pieces. You can toss the onions and garlic or drain and hold some back, it doesn't really matter. Drain the potatoes/carrots pot, and put everything into a saucepan with a jar of gravy (I use turkey gravy). While it's warming up, put a crust in a pie pan, and then dump the mix into the pie pan and cover with another crust if you want. Bake for 1 hour at 350F, let cool, and enjoy.

You can leave out pretty much anything you want or swap it for whatever or add stuff. My partner likes peas in his pot pie (texture nightmare for me). The amounts don't really matter for the rest, as long as it fits in your pie pan. I find 2 decent sized redskin potatoes, 4 quail, a few baby carrots (like maybe 6-8 good sized ones not those skinny bitches), a small bowl of broccoli+mushrooms (together) seems to be about right for me.

It does have a different flavor than chicken pot pie, but I like it. Also be REALLY thorough about checking your meat for bones, they have so many tiny bones. I pretty much always miss some little fucker somehow, so don't be surprised if you do, too.

I like mine with a bit of cheese shredded on top!

Literally every single one Greek in the country: why isn't there ever budget for a half decent movie that isn't about a romcom taking place in a single room? Just once would have been nice!!!

Greek toy store JUMBO: *casually making two Hollywood movies every year for their mere use as Christmas and Easter TV spots*

i just had a dream where Mumbo opened a crepes and cakes store near my house (i live in america) so i went there on a whim only for him to actually be there, presumably making a video to premote the store

i ordered, said it was nice too meet him in person, left without picking up my order, and felt very embarrassed until i realized it was a dream and woke up …

Absolutely devastating to learn that Greece's version of Target is both better and more demonic than ours

Hit-or-miss shrimp

Our shrimp man, never a slave to schedules, has been especially elusive this year. 

We caught him once, a couple of weeks ago, at his customary pop-up market, a 15-minute walk from the condo we rent on Hilton Head. But I happened to be cashless that morning. He went AWOL until Friday.

His shrimp are jumbo, indeed - 9 or 10 to the pound. Sweet as can be. And, if you want, the shrimp man will pop their heads off for you, right on the spot.

However, he remains inflexible regarding his flexibility. “Please come back,” he says, but as soon as you ask,”When ... ?,” things turn murky.

My solution is to make sure I have money in my pocket whenever I walk that way.
