I would write a few up for you but it's 2:00 in the morning here, i'm pretty sure ive stuck a few in the recipes section before though.

Just remember fat is your friend! Cook with plenty of wine, cream and butter! :sly: With gamier meats i find most berries work well so go and pick yourself some blackberries this summer and stick them in the sauce for your pigeon along with some thyme and red wine. Just play around with it! Good luck! :hmm:

What about cherries? The tree out front is producing fruit just about every day now and I have three nice bunnies hanging up in the garage...

 

Sorry, getting hungry now.

 

Right, back to knife sharpening. What about a bog standard ceramic whetstone? I saw the Fallkniven one and it looks compact and easy to use just to do a bit of honing... Linky

I use a Lansky set, fantastic bit of kit, and you just cant go wrong with it because the blade is held in position and the stones are held in guides that mean you always get a perfect and uniform edge, I've tried lots of other systems and some are great for a quick touch up but nothing gives such consistent results.

 

I also have an electric one that is far too abrasive if your not careful but a good way of getting an edge on a really dull blade and then finish with a fine lansky stone.

 

Have used butchers steels in the past but it is very difficult to get an even edge on the whole blade what ever anyone says, although I do use these for touching up a blade between sharpenings.
