Drunken Pigeon >> Drunken Chicken >> Drunken Chef
I gave a buddy a bottle of Chinese medicinal clear liquor, in which the bottom 1/3 of the bottle was occupied by a curled-up snake.i cant imagine drinking it. there is a whiskey in Taiwan that is popular. it is so herb-forward...not my thing. i feel i should soak a sore ankle in it, not drink it.
this cooking wine has the same medicinal herb thing going according to my nose. i am not sipping it.
Oh, is that what it's for? I remember eating with some friends at a snake restaurant in Sham Shui Po. My back was right up against a wall of little file drawers. They asked me to move, so they could get at the drawers, which, it turns out, contained live snakes. Fortunately, we were having wine with the dinner, so I just shrugged and went back to my chair.hahahah...
your achey muscles are loving it.
Every where I been in Asia somebody has tried to sell me a bottle of booze with a cobra, scorpion, bug or something in it. I kind of figured it was a tourist trick. As for alligator, I've ate plenty in the south. Like they always say, tastes like chicken!!Oh, is that what it's for? I remember eating with some friends at a snake restaurant in Sham Shui Po.

Snake meat is really, really good, mild and tasty. I probably shouldn't describe the bile thing that came later that evening.
On a later visit, I had steamed alligator back. It's gelatinous and tastes lizardy, and I am not a fan.
I had some of this baijiu at a baijiu bar in Beijing in 2016:I gave a buddy a bottle of Chinese medicinal clear liquor, in which the bottom 1/3 of the bottle was occupied by a curled-up snake.
I've never had an open bottle go bad on me. I think the max I've tested that is maybe 6-8 months.I was asking a Chinese friend about this subject a few months ago, I went out and bought a bottle based on her recommendation and then she brought be one. I have nothing to compare it to though, but have had good results the couple times I've used it.
Anybody know the shelf life on an open bottle, not refrigerated?

What's in your picture is the salted version, which would probably improve its longevity.
