Horsemeat, what should i expect?

[Mehula]

Hi there, first of all could i ask is it legal to import horsemeat into the uk? My friend is from a small french province and will be sending me a few kilos of her finest horsemeat which is from free range falabella foals which are a delicacy there.
What does horsemeat taste like and what would be the best way to serve this and with what?

[chi-chi66]

who can suggest a good wine to go with it? TIA

Thanks markrae, not going to eat it raw but am wondering to maybe flatten the steaks with a steak hammer and have it with garlic butter and a red onion and red pepper marmalade.
To the rest of you please grow up this meant to be a serious q&a site I'm pretty sure this is Answerbank and not jokerbank.
You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Must be served with horseradish sauce.

If you had mentioned a breed other than fallbella, you might have been believable, if you had talked about roasting them whole like a suckling pig you might have been believable as it is, not even a good try.

But they are diddly PETS and companion animals!...it'd be like eating your dog....

:-(

and the French call themselves civilised....not!

Double standards there MarkRae given your post @ 11:14.

Best report me, then...

[ummmm]

If you can eat other horse meat why can't you eat falabella?

Apparently they are considered a very rare breed-with only a few thousand in the world. I've googled a bit-and see no mention of them used for their meat...but rather they are pets/companions,and little work horses...with a very long lifespan.

Why would I bother to report a minor irritation? I'm not that petty.
