Recipe
lynx stew
Lynx Stew (slow cooker) (game)
Ingredients:
2 onions, coarsely chopped
2 carrots, coarsely chopped
2 celery pieces, coarsely chopped
5 Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered, not peeled (1 inch cubes)
1 tbsp of peppercorns
3 cloves of garlic, coarsely chopped
1 bay leaf
Salt to taste
1/2 bottle of red wine
2 lynx haunches, bone in
Directions:
Prepare lynx by thawing if frozen and marinating in milk.
Place lynx and milk in a plastic bag overnight in the refrigerator.
Place lynx haunches in slow cooker, add vegetables on top.
Pour and cover lynx with the 1/2 bottle of red wine.
Wine could be red or white (it’s a good way to use up any half-bottles you may have already open).
Slow cook on low heat up to 1/2 day, or until the meat is falling off the bones.
Remove the bones and serve stew-style. Gravy can also be made.
Lynx is great table fare and is said to taste like rabbit or even “chicken”. It has a very mild gamey taste. When the meat falls off the bones, I thought of chicken thighs.
