An interesting experiment. The soup had a unique taste, but I found the texture a bit unusual. Not something I would make regularly, but certainly an experience.

This dish didn't suit my taste. The process of cleaning and preparing the muskrat was quite off-putting for me. I wouldn't try it again.

A unique experience. The flavors were interesting, but the preparation was a bit challenging for me. Worth a try for recipe searchers.
