We go behind the scenes of the infamous Elk antler dish at Amisfield Restaurant to see how it’s made 🫎🦌🤯

Process:

Firstly, @chefvaughanmabee and friends collect Elk antlers that have been shed by the Elk in the Fiordland area, @queenstownnz, @purenewzealand.

The NZ Elk - or Wapiti as they are known by its original name - derived from a Shawnee and Cree word meaning “white rump”, referring to the light-colored patch of fur on their rear.

Wapiti shed their antlers once a year and re-grow them to full size in about 5 months. These beasts were originally gifted to New Zealand from the US by Teddy Roosevelt.

The antlers are then completely sterilised in the @amisfieldrestaurant kitchen and a small cavity is cut into them to conceal the meat later stuffed into them.

The Elk is sustainably and humanely shot and killed by @withwild_ and @awatoru_wildfood in the pure forests of Fiordland.

The Elk is then broken down in the Amisfield kitchen, and the Elk leg is dry aged to maximise flavour.

When it is time for service, the chefs fill the sides of the cavity in the sterilised antlers with aluminium foil.

The aged Elk meat is then mixed with smoked pastrami made from Elk heart, Elk liver pâté, vinegar from pickled piko piko (a native fern), a touch of fermented chilli, chopped pickles, and Speights beer mustard.

The meat mixture is then inserted into the cavity of the antlers by chefs @bae_chef97 and @jimmynewp, covered in Elk liver and Pinot noir pate, then hand moulded by the chefs to look like the rest of the antlers shape.

Finally, chef @bex_pastry_sheffield creates the edible fake velvet by spraying the antlers with a warm deer tallow “fat” emulsified with coffee, deer stock and wild honey, and it’s then sprinkled with wild mushroom and vinegar powder to create the velvet texture look.

Served on a French sorrel leaf with native grains, it can then be eaten like a taco. 🌮

The combination of the wild game, sweetness and acidity also spice is wildly delicious…

Would you try it? 🤷🏽‍♂️
