Title: Crispy Rattlesnake Coils
Categories: Appetizers, Game
Yield: 10 Servings
1 Rattlesnake; cut in strips
Flour
Salt & pepper
Crisco
Cut rattlesnake into 8" strips about 1/4" thick. Salt and pepper
lightly. Put flour into a container that can be covered. Add
strips. Shake. Refrigerate for about 2 hours. This will allow the
flour to become sticky and while the Crisco is heating in a deep
fryer, pull the pieces apart and re-flour the pieces again. Add
flour if necessary. When the Crisco shortening is hot, add only
enough snake strips so that all pieces are covered by the hot
grease. Fry until golden brown. Dump into a container that has been
prewarmed in the oven. Continue frying the rest of the rattlesnake
strips.
Serving:
Use a basket lined with a cloth napkin. Add the fried, coiled snake
pieces. Cover with the napkin.
Notes:
The fried rattlesnake strips will appear to be coiled!
