Austria—Schnitzel not kangaroo.
- wizofaus 4y agoThe two aren't at all mutually exclusive, just so you know!
- mabbo 4y agoKangaroo schnitzel sounds intriguing but gamey.
- wizofaus 4y agoNo more than venison schnitzel. Lots of good recipes online.
- wizofaus 4y agoAnd now that we're already totally off topic...does "gamey" actually mean anything other "having flavour that we're not inured to or been watered down to lowest-common denominator tastes?"
- trasz 4y agoPerhaps, but there are many methods to make meat less gamey, and I suspect most of them was invented before the current blandness set in, which suggests it wasn't welcome in the old days either.
- wizofaus 4y agoSupposedly it's related to iron content. But I'm baffled at the Oxford definition returned by Google: "having the strong flavour or smell of game, especially when it is high". There are very similar definitions that use "tainted" or even "spoiled" instead of "high". I think I'd rather my roo steak tasting of marijuana than of rotten flesh.

- reaperducer 4y agoThe last time I was in Austria, all of the tourist shops had t-shirts with one of those Australian kangaroo crossing signs on it and the text "No kangaroos in Austria."
