Why not wine made from fermented meat? I wonder, in the
history of the world, if anyone has ever made human meat
wine?

I knew this idea was headed straight for the edge before I'd even opened it. With the last three words it went sailing ass over teakettle right out of sight. |
|
| |
I think the stuff in meat doesn't ferment. It just rots. |
|
| |
But if you took wine and fortified it with some au jus, that might be good. You could reduce it and serve it on meat, like gravy. |
|
| |
I suspect that the "fish wine" is wine fortified with fish juice. |
|
| |
Sangria means blood, but there's no blood in it. |
|
| |
Some tannic acid may be involved. |
|
| |
If the human meat wine don't kill you, your inmates will, as they did Jeffery Dahmer, Wisconsin, USA. |

"Barf!" he said, when he took a sip, just before he keeled over and died. |

CJJ Berry, who pretty much started the whole homebrewing thing in the UK with "Home Brewed Beers and Stouts" includes a recipie for "Cock Ale" (I kid you not) which involves fermeting the must with a cooked chicken carcass in it. I haven't tried it. |
|
| |
Baked (or actually fermented) with the meat beer idea, methinks. |
|
| |
And I checked out most of the Food: liquified category. |
|
| |
roman "garum" was essentially fermented anchovies with salt. |
|
| |
This would work fine, except in terms of
success. |
|

The basic problem is that meat doesn't
contain much sugar, and sugar is what
man's best friend, yeast, turns into
alcohol. Yes, you can "ferment" fish,
meat, or indeed relatives, but the result
will not contain much alcohol. |
|
| |
This ***might*** just be feasible with
foie gras, which contains large amounts
of glycogen. Glycogen is closely similar
to starch, and some of the decay
bacteria ***might*** hydrolyze it into
sugar, which yeasts could then ferment
into alcohol. If anyone is prepared to
fund the research, I am prepared to
purchase a sufficient quantity of foie
gras. I will then eat it while I think of a
good reason why it wouldn't have
fermented. |

// This would work fine, except in terms of success.
I've added that to the tag line list. |
|
| |
See the linked-to US Patent for how at least one process works around the lack of sugar - basically, you just add sugar first. I wish them good luck with the marketing. |
|
| |
It's so awful it's bound to sell. I wonder if
it's possible to malt foie gras? |
