11. Rose smoked grouse

Tea and rose smoked grouse, leeks and figs. Aged mandarin peel demiglace. Big bowl of RICE on the side. _ Adapted the usual pigeon recipe to grouse. It has a deeper more bitter flavour so made the master stock a lot stronger to compensate. Thankfully this grouse wasn't very high and ate beautifully. Not as juicy sweet as pigeon and the skin isn't as nice. But good to eat when in season #grouse #modernbritishchinese
