But from earlier comments on this list, it looks like wild game animals,
including deer, are much more available in your area than down here in
Ansteorra.
And you can find period parallels to this conversation. Soch are the
reasons trade happened and why you have variations in cuisines across
Europe.
Now salt cod (and other dried or cured fish) is expensive here at
about $6 to $8 for one pound in a cheap, but cute, wooden box. In what
other areas is it available and what are the prices?
