MUSKRAT Information
Muskrat flesh is fine-grained, dark red, and tender. Most connoisseurs agree that
the
flavor is improved by soaking overnight in a solution of 1 tbsp. salt to 1 qt. water.
If
the gamy taste is objectionable, soaking in the salt solution or in a weak vinegar
solution--1 cup vinegar to 1 qt. water--will reduce the intensity of the taste.
