I've never tried vension - but this makes me want to give it a try, Jim. Wow - look all the fantastic flavor components and with dumplings. I have a true love for dumplings and am a big fan of horseradish. Oh my... wonder if I can come across vension here without Elmer Fudd-ing it? We'll see. Another great post - thanks so much!

Jim, this sounds brilliant... it's one I could make for sure. Thankfully we don't have to go out and catch our own as we have a brilliant fish/poultry/game seller right nearby and they have venison pretty much all year round. I'll let you know how I get on.
Cheers
