| Episode 203: Venison Pho: A Wild Game Twist on the Vietnamese Classic | 17 Sep 2024 | 00:18:04 | |
With winter still holding on fast, a hearty, warming soup is always a go-to meal in my household. Pho, a classic Vietnamese soup served with a broad accompaniment of proteins, fresh herbs, and lime, is the perfect way to balance the warmth of the soon-to-be winter’s end and the incoming spring. Here, we’ll dive into the simple yet profound pleasure of preparing pho with thin-sliced venison sirloin, a wild game twist that fits nicely with this traditional comfort food. The protein choices used here can vary – I encourage all to try this recipe and use whatever wild game you’ve got available (avoid eating rare wild pig or bear). The robust and complex flavors of the broth of the pho complement a wide swath of proteins, and this dish will come together relatively quickly, which is bound to become a favorite weekday staple.

About Pho
Pho is a beloved and ubiquitous Vietnamese soup consisting of a colossal bowl full of heady, deeply flavored broth made from marrow bones and charred aromatics, full of bouncy and slithery rice noodles, a combination of meats contributing contrasting textures, temperatures, flavors, and bite sizes, evocative herbs and spices, all served with a side plate of fresh garnishes, providing a choose-your-own-adventure of crunch, herbaceousness, heat, sweetness, pungency, acid, and bite.
In truth, no one really knows how Pho came to be. There are plenty of hypotheses, though.
Most culinary historians and pho enthusiasts agree that a rudimentary version of the soup first appeared in the Hanoi region sometime in the 1880’s.
This soup consisted of a few slices of tough water buffalo in broth with vermicelli rice noodles. Water buffalo and cows were working beasts then and would have been eaten only if they could no longer work, meaning they were probably old and tough… perfect for a long-simmered soup.
By the early to mid-1900s, the soup had evolved from a watery meat broth to a subtly complex soup with a clear and simple bone broth, lightly spiced, and for those wealthy enough, a pile of thinly sliced rare beef poached in the soup while it was served.
In 1954, under the Geneva Accords, Vietnam was split into two countries: the communist north and the democratic south.
During this time, many northerners fled south to escape communism and settled into new areas, bringing pho and their foodways.
The soup quickly caught on in the South, becoming popular with street vendors everywhere. Without the North’s staunch conservative inflexibility, the soup was quickly altered to suit Southern tastes and liberal ways, with all sorts of unconventional ingredients being added to the horror of some of the purist Northerners.
The Americans became involved in the conflict between North and South, and in 1963, the Vietnam War began.
By 1975, America had pulled out of the war, and Saigon had fallen to the north, creating a mass exodus of over 2 million southern Vietnamese people who mainly eventually found asylum in the US, Canada, Australia, and France.
Of course, these refugees, many of whom were stuck on rickety boats for a miserable amount of time, brought their beloved pho recipes with them and quickly found ingredients to make it in their new homes.

Summary:
In this episode, Justin, Adam, and Matthew discuss the consumption of invasive carp. They mention the environmental impact of Asian carp, including their ability to outcompete native fish species and their jumping behavior. Matthew shares the management strategies employed by the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife, such as commercial fishing and the use of bioacoustic fish fences. Finally, they talk about the taste and cooking methods of carp, with Matthew recommending smoking the fish and using it in dishes like salads and dips. In this conversation, Matthew discusses different methods of preparing and cooking carp, particularly invasive carp species. He shares his experiences with smoking, pickling, and grinding carp, as well as making dishes like miso soup, tacos, and fish patties. Matthew highlights the potential of carp as a sustainable food source and the need to change the perception of carp as a low-quality fish. He mentions resources like the book 'Eat the Enemy' and the Choose Kopi website for carp recipes. The conversation concludes with the idea of organizing a camp focused on bowfishing and cooking invasive species.

Carp meat is white and can be smoked and used in dishes like salads and dips.
Asian carp have a mild flavor and can take on the flavors of various seasonings. There are various methods of preparing and cooking carp, including smoking, pickling, and grinding.
Carp can be used in a variety of dishes, such as miso soup, tacos, and fish patties.
Carp, particularly invasive species, have the potential to be a sustainable food source.
Changing the perception of carp as a low-quality fish is important to promote its consumption.
Resources like the book 'Eat the Enemy' and the Choose Kopi website provide carp recipes and information.
Organizing a camp focused on bowfishing and cooking invasive species could be a fun and educational experience.

| Episode 190: Chile Snow Goose Burgers and Problematic Snow Geese in North America | 12 Jun 2024 | 00:20:16 | |
I created this recipe for Harvesting Nature’s 2024 Snow Goose Culinary Camp, which took place in Mound City, Missouri. My role there was camp cook, cooking instructor, and butchery instructor, but camp director Justin Townsend and I did get a chance to do a little hunting, too. I’ve got to say, we ran into quite a few birds.
We were lucky enough to harvest several geese, which allowed us to experiment in the kitchen. One of the dishes we made for guests and staff was these green chile snow goose burgers, made from ground snow goose breasts and legs, pork, and bacon.
While cooking them on the flat-top griddle outside, the snow geese continually streamed overhead, a cacophony of honks drifting down at all times.
In fact, anywhere you were in Mound City, you could look up and see endless giant V’s of snow geese streaming overhead, accompanied by constant honking. Millions of snow geese; what a place!
The burgers made for a filling and tasty lunch, just what everyone needed before heading back to the pit blinds in a nearby cornfield.
Any green chile burger is great, but made with wild snow goose? It’s like the perfect grass-fed beef burger with even more flavor.
Many people online have assured me that snow goose isn’t really worth eating and that the birds are nothing more than sky carp.
Sky carp? More like hamburger of the sky!

-
“...If you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on the animal’s terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could recapture the day…” - Robert Ruark, author and big game hunter.
