This is a famous recipe that was handed down through the family for many years. When many roads became paved in the 1920s, food-lovers became aware of the deliciousness of scrapings, and this recipe was their favorite.

The recipe:

Hunt on the highway for leftovers from road-killed animals. Be careful of traffic, as it is best not to become part of the recipe.

Have your tools with you in your Scrapings Tool-kit, which you can purchase at any hardware store. Tools include: trowel, pancake turner, regular machete knife, ice pick, razor blade, paint scraper, toothbrush, tweezers, tooth picks, sandpaper, magnifying glass, hammer, and bag. You can bring along with you other instruments that might be of some use.

When you detect a sign of left-over animal, transport it to the side of the road. Start extracting the body parts and, with tweezers, drop them carefully into your bag that the tool-kit provides. Be sure to get all the fur, as it is needed for the recipe. Get the scrapings home as quickly as possible.

Steps:

Make sauce in frying pain using lard, onions, garlic, sour cream, a little salt, and vodka to taste. Stir continuously until the sauce is thick and bubbly. Add Roadkill scrapings to the sauce, making sure that you reserve the fur for later. Simmer for 30 minutes or until tender.

When ready, place all in a transparent, glass casserole dish (so the scrapings are visible). Cook in a hot oven for 40 minutes or until the aroma indicates it is the perfect time.

As you bring the casserole out of the oven, place the reserved fur evenly on top, sprinkling generously. The fur keeps the casserole warm for your guests, and adds a touch of the outdoors for nature-lovers.

Now you can explain to your guests that it is an old recipe of your aunt’s. As they delight in the chewiness of the fur topping, and exotic taste of this delectable dish. Be ready to respond to comments and questions about the recipe, and graciously help guests who have to leave early.
