Yet another seal dining experience


Well, it was with a wonderful joy we read these posts. They certainly piqued our interest in the finer aspects of seal dining.

Then.......our fine daughter (Debbie) showed up to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with us. She also read this thread and with great excitement proclaimed "I've eaten baby seal before!"

As it turned out, after "grilling" her further the real story comes out....She and a friend were at a Sushi restaurant when her plate arrived with non-descript items in wide array. Hesitant at first, she finally consented to sample everything.

"it wasn't bad" was the quote she repeated time and again.

After much celebration and imbibing of the spirits (saki mostly) she asked calmly, "Ok, what was it?"

The answer, through her liquor confused hearing, was "that last food was baby seal!"

"OH NO!" It wasn't baby seal was it?

And now the real words spoken became clearer - "it was baby sea eel" - oh what a relief - let's have more saki!:spingrin::spingrin:

Are there any Nomads who are Innuits?


If so, perhaps we could call on you to post a favorite way to prepare baby seal...or any seal for that matter?

For myself, while at Albertsons I looked in both the meat department and seafood cases..no luck, but did find some Chicken of the Sea canned seal in the ethnic food aisle. I tried it creamed on toast points...reminded me of SOS ...army chow. Quite good with an robust shiraz.

Eskimos have been eating these seaborne rabbits for some time. Clubbing seems to leave the fur more intact, thus making the mittens for the little wife much easier.

We await recipes of the far north!

Is it apprapo to clean the blood off baby seals before serving them? They're so much more colorful then just that blinding white. The red streaking also seems to get the digestive juices flowing...

Jeez, I thought I was back at the firehouse. I am so pleased that I have so many Nomad peers. Lets all "meat" and seal our fates at the Casa de Loco in San Diego...

Maybe we can start a Nomad "Club"?

Capt. George, hmmm, perhaps a new guide service????

Adult seal is better ground after the layer of fat is removed. You can make cracklens out of the fat with a little lean attached. Makes good crackeling bread.:D:D

You mean seal rinds? They are good dipped in vinegar and pepper.
