@Hooroo Ever had one? - they're supposed to be delicious. So good Edward IV wouldn't let commoners tuck into them.
I love me a good roasted game bird
No, I have shot one but never got the chance to eat it as I was leaving that night (I sometimes go to Invercargill for Duck Shooting Season)

whats the story about our turkey?
They are a pest on farms, but there is something I have heard about them having worms or something 9 months a year and therefore being inedible for this time?
-
@taniwharugby You only cull-for-eating turkey with months without a R in them. That's the general rule of thumb here in NZ
-
From NZ Hunting and Shooting Forum "The r thing comes from the northern hemisphere, should probably be turned round for here. Best month's seem to be late oct, thru jan also possibly feb but depends on when cricket nos start to climb. Then may june but after that they start getting a bit scrawny. Crickets which the seem to love make them stink and taste rancid. If you can get the bastards after theyve been in a orchard premo!

Anyone have any recommendations for sheep milk products in NZ?
I can't recommend brands rather than locations. I find Farro in Auckland has a really good range of cheeses and milk etc.
I'm not really sure if that helps or not.

@hooroo Will check them out when I get the chance. Would love to get some good greek style sheep milk yogurt.
Not sure wheere you live but the Farro in Albany is quite a decent one

What do you guys think about Ossobuco with beef shanks instead of veal? Veal is hard to get at the moment.
I don't have a problem with that. Throw in some beef tendon for good measure

If it tastes good then there's nothing wrong with it. Recipes and dishes are more an application of technique and flavours than a set of rules.
Venison shanks work really well too, especially paired with a nice fresh lemony gremolata. -
