We all go fishing sometimes with a fish dinner in mind, but sometimes all we get is the :skunk:
When you have lots of lemons you make lemonade, right? So... seems appropriate that if you get the :skunk: you fry it up. Think positive and only good things can follow. :wink:
Fried :skunk: Recipe
2 :skunk: :skunk: skinned and cleaned
1 tbsp. salt
Water to cover
2 cups bear fat or lard
2 egg yolks, beaten
3 cups milk or cream
1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp baking powder
Clean and wash the :skunk: , making sure the scent glands are removed (very important).
Cut into small serving size pieces.
Put a soup kettle on the stove and add the meat.
Cover with cold water and bring to a boil over high heat.
Lower the heat and boil until the meat is tender, about 40 minutes.
Remove all the scum that rises to the surface of the water.
Make a batter by mixing together the egg yolks, milk, flour, salt and baking powder.
Mix real good until the batter is like cake batter.
Heat the bear fat or lard in a deep fryer to about 360 degrees F.
Dip the pieces of :skunk: in the batter and fry them in the deep fryer til golden brown.
Drain well and serve.
Enjoy....
