I never thought I would say this, but damn, horse meat is a lot better than I thought. I'm quite adventurous when it comes to food, trying things like ostrich, alligator, or even dog (not as good as people say). However, I've always had a particular aspersion to horse meat, I don't know why. Maybe it's that scene in The Godfather where they put a horse head in the guy's blanket but I just never saw horse meat as something you can eat.
That all changed when, at a party this winter break, they were serving these tacos... And don't get me wrong, the sauce was amazing too, the peppers, the lettuce, all crisp and fresh. But the most amazing part was the meat. Good lord it tasted so succulent, a hint of sweetness, so lean yet tender. My God I don't think I've had a better taco in my life. Of course, I had to ask the host what she put in it and the answer shocked me. Horse meat. Wow, what the fuck, who knew horse meat could taste so good? I, of course, tried horse meat with just about everything after that and found it quite boring overall, never getting the same delicious high I got while at that party. Although it does taste quite good with a cold glass of milk to wash it down, it will never be the same as those tacos... God those tacos were good...
And the reason I'm blogging this is because this has come to disrupt my Teamliquid experience. Now, whenever I look up at the banner, I think mmmm Tacos...

Some meats are just too gamy.

This reminds me of when I was in grade 7 and this girl in my class had a pet horse, but then it died. Everyday for months she came to school with horse jerky. Something about that just never seemed right to me.

If you tell that to a mongolian, you would be dead.
But I would like to try horse. And blue mountain oysters as well.

The Mongolian nomads used to drink their horse's blood when they had nothing to drink, dude.

and they eat horses too, no taboo there. Not their favorite but its nothing unusual

I never really liked horse meat much. Moose and venison though, simply amazing.
I want to try human meat sometime. :p
|
Damn someone beat me to the Mongolians drinking horse blood and stuff.
|
Venison is good stuff, too bad its not widely available in the States.
|
Horse meat is damn good. I hate how they never have it at sushi shops in America.

Well, you should have asked her what part of the horse it was. The cut of meat makes a huge difference in flavor, texture, and the way to cook it.

What do you guys think about test tube meat?
