Been meaning to take this snap for ages, but there’s always a queue at this butcher’s. Today I got lucky.
What do you make with those…?
Roast Sniff?
Snout Au Vin?
Snot Pot?
Muzzle Moussaka?
Nostrils Napolitana?

Love it! Quirky, fun, get’s people talking (if only to say ‘bleurgh’. In the past, people would have cooked any part of an animal. BTW, I really can’t stomach tripe, but I love offal etc….

Me too, I eat almost anything, including lung. Tripe I can’t cope with… the texture is too weird.

It’s the texture, and on occasions the smell!! Just get me some frog’s legs, snails, veal kidneys…. Or what about pig’s cheeks?? 😉
LikeLike
Pigs’ cheeks I like. It’s just muscle tissue, like any other.

Quite, but people are put off by the name! 🙂

People are weird about these things. Especially Brits and Americans. If it’s not chicken/turkey, beef, pork or lamb, and a very limited range of parts of those, it’s “disgusting”.
LikeLike
You are quite right! I am English, but old fashioned English, brought up eating a wide variety of different foods, and expected to eat whatever was on your plate! Plus my mum discovered the books of Elizabeth David in the late 60s, so we ate all kinds of wonderful stuff!

I ate cow’s tongue in Austria.. but those muzzles are just disturbing. I feel like they’re looking at me!
LikeLike
Cow’s tongue is almost a staple dish in Russia. I had never tried it though (even tho my fam always had it for all the big gatherings) – it looked, um, unappetizing.
LikeLike
It’s… odd. It tastes a bit like beef but it has a weird texture. It kind of reminded me a bit of liver, but not as bitter/chalky.
LikeLike
I love liver! (sorry, my Russian is showing. might be NSFW)
LikeLike
Ooooh, liver… love it. Well, depends on how it’s prepared, but usually I like it.
LikeLike
I like tongue. Well, it’s a muscle, like all the other ‘meat’, rather than an organ.

It was nicer than I was expecting, but I don’t think I could eat a whole one (I just tried some of Jan’s).

Yuk. Yuk. Yuk. As with most Brits, I’m definitely a total hypocrite when it comes to meat – chicken and (normal) bits of pork or beef good, everything else bad. I’m going to dinner at an Italian friend’s house tomorrow and I’ve just texted her to let her know I don’t eat veal or rabbit (both dished up at previous dinners) but now I’ll have to send her a picture of these with a NO WAY message!!
