Pan Fried Venison with Carmelized Garlic

I recently found out that once venison is thawed from your
freezer, it must be cooked asap to avoid a horrible odor from
the liquid blood. This realization led me to marinate this
portion in vinegar, brown sugar and soy sauce overnight.

Before pan frying, I added some bicarb to deodorize pieces
of venison. Using high heat, the venison was pan fried with
garlic oil from fresh garlic capsules. For even more garlic
appeal, it is also possible to roast a whole garlic bulb until
gooey in the oven.

Venison pan fried on high heat with garlic oil eventually
leads to a carmelized paste after quite a bit of bubbling in
a regular stainless steel pan. Salt can be added before the
marinating process or after frying.

A chef friend mentioned that citrus juice, such as orange is
another option for this carmelizing process.

Bon apetit.

Politics of Subsistence Living

After leaving health and social services as a means for gainful
income in 2006, Yukie Yamada lived and worked in rural areas
of Maui on properties designated "ag" properties.

A few of the property owners were able to establish a life apart
from the usual material trappings associated with land ownership.
Some of these property owners are absolutely of sound mind in
this choice, however, life in the jungle is hardly life in paradise.

With hostile policy enforcement tactics by the County of Maui
and speculation by the sort of folks who like to raise property
value because they are the only ones who could afford them,
these rural areas are the target of many drug/terror crimes.

Yukie found living and working on these lands a life of health
and spirit. Yet cultivating food on such properties was even
more harrowing to her safety than working in health and social
services where fraud, waste and abuse are a normalized way
of being. There is far too much profit for attorneys, property
owners, criminal defendants to cover-up crimes against those
who are committed to living drug-free.
