I might riff off it when I go shoot barn pigeons later this winter. But isn't that foam a little poncy for a fine Englishman to make? It seems...well...French. Lovely dish!

I cooked a minature pigeon pie not long ago which I served as part of an 'assiette' of pigeon, the sauce it makes is superb. Obviously I stuck some truffle and girolles in mine just to make it impossible for someone like you to replicate :) Miles Rod,

Your line about the French brought a broad grin, I may accidentally mention that to four of my French chefs this morning :mrgreen: Miles Dave,

I was about to say I envy the French sometimes - but then I thought no, not really.
