I'm loving this series,both for the recipes and the cultural notes. my 2nd great-grandfather was born in Dornoch (south of Owen Sound) about 1854. When the family first arrived in Canada from County Carlow in the 1830s, they spent several years near Smith's Falls.

I had wild rice for supper tonight! Since it is not actually rice it is gluten free. I have not had venison that I liked but I might try to cook it this winter. I first saw you on The woodland escape and I'm glad because I am now enjoying your videos as well. Thank you.

Your research is amazing. We successfully harvested two deer this fall so, lots of venison recipes for us.

Such a cool video -- love the idea of the sudden accessibility of previously unattainable upper class foods such as venison, totally reminds me of the humble origins of the new luxurious lobster. Thanks for a great video!

Always loved venison, still do. On both sides of my family, my great Grandmother on my mother's side was Akwesasne Mohawk, born on the reservation and my grandmother on my mother's side, her daughter was a professional cook, so when we had venison, it was like eating at a restaurant. My grandmother on my father's side was half French Canadian-half Mohawk and so there was a lot of wild game in the family. I try every year to get a deer to get us through the winter here in the Adirondacks, although some years are tougher than others, but there are few things better than venison soup when it gets cold in the winter.

I loved this video! It's so very interesting to see the how the settlers' and indigenous' lives mixed, even in something so simple as a recipe. I also wouldn't have thought about how venison would have been a food for the elite back in Europe, and therefor new to many of the settlers. Interesting to think that venison was considered plentiful and most would have eaten it, whereas now the majority of Canadians do not eat it, nor even have access to it (at least not easily). I am also interested in how different yet similar hospitality and reciprocity are, misunderstood but still done within these groups, only later for reciprocity to be maligned (despite being so similar to hospitality).

I have yet to try venison, but I want to someday! Excellent video, and I love the historical context that you give.

Where are you located? Often you can find country folk willing to share or barter for fresh venison.
