A big thank you to all who hunted, gathered, cooked, dressed up, drank and ate the fabulous fayre that was the Hunter Gatherer 2011.

Limpet lust...

Anyone know if I should freeze the limpets live? Or drop into boiling water for a few seconds to kill but not cook? Or cook them for the alleged 2 mins needed and then drop into my curry once re thawed? The girls and I also got a haul of muscles.... I'm guessing they will stay alive in the fridge until Sunday?

Well done on the crayfish haul Agents 1 and 2 by the way! Good result!

Clam Cull

It seems from this that low tide is the only time for collecting the clams with any success. So who's up for another trip to the beach to try and avenge our pride?

2 x Pigeon & Samphire Quiche.

Made from...

Samphire scavenged during failed Holkham Beach razorshell hunt by Andrew, Simon & Duncan

Marinated Rocklands pigeon breasts (Steve's wood and Duncan's walnut tree),

Eggs from Alice & Rupert's bantams (Winkle & Dr Snuggles)

Homegrown hothouse toms from Simon's parents.

Mmmm, salicornia...

Secret ingredient. Other than a splash of Bordeaux.

Ensis update

One more for us to try :))

and

limpet pools

Huntresses and gatherers, Mac has suggested a foraging day next week; shellfish (not freshwater), molluscs, at a beach of your choice. Anyone got ideas for crab fishing? We are away the 15th, and will collect French boar and myrtilles.
