RE: How to cook a delicious reptile(garrobo)

in #food8 years ago

Thank you for your asking. Ok this animal was catches in company with my father and niece, really it is not difficult because we have dogs and you only indicated to dog where it is, and they make the work for you.
We lived in El Salvador and in the suburbs and are normal to find some animal like this, because in the mountain are a lot of reptile, you only need some time to find with the dog and help for example sometimes the reptiles are under soil and you only retire the soil and the dog enter under soil and catch it for you. When a reptile is climb the tree you need to climb a tree to get the animal. And the dog capture for you, because you only obligated the animal to down a tree.
Ok yes you put the head in the soup if you like, but it has not a lot of meat is only a meat but the flavor is much tasted.
Yea men the pumpkin seed powder is very delicious, certainly it is not a soup it is more like a cream. Mmmmmm very very liked.
I work in the city during week but on weekend I share time with my parents and enjoy time with my fathers in the mountain and in the kitchen help my mom to prepare this delicious recipe.
Remember it is not the same if you catch or grew up your food that if you only go to the supermarket and buy some meat it is good but is better catch and enjoy with family.
Thanks for your comment and excuse me for my late answer.
Best regard.

Thank you for such a nice reply. I can see that a dog would make it much easier to catch the reptiles! I harvest squirrels and nutria from my own yard, when they are bothering my garden. I cook them and they are delicious, too. But many people would not eat them because they never see them in a supermarket. Enjoy your time with your family!
