Mongolia is a steppe because of volcanic formations from ~10 million years ago. Significant traces of volcanic activity are still found throughout the whole fuckin country, and these igneous rocks can retain and exhaust unbelievable amounts of heat. throw two of these rocks in a fire for 20 minutes and it'll give off heat like a 500 degree oven for at least an hour. In Mongolia, they'll heat a hundred of these rocks over one communal fire, and then distribute them to the various families who travel together.

Huh, neat

what’s the meat like? Doesn’t look unappetizing

why is mongolia so resourceful yet china is so retarded when it comes to food? it can't be scarcity alone, food is also scarce for rural chinese

Since we are in rock territory, spaghetti with sea rock.
When people couldn't afford fish in Sicily

It's great.
Cheeks are tender but the tongue is more firm.
Lots of different textures but it all tastes great despite looking sort of "out there"

>>18543612
man idk I clearly made all of that up. Rocks that emit 500 degree temperatures after 20 minutes in a fire? does that make any fucking sense?

Ate the head of a pig once, very little meat, the ears were hard as fuck even tho I heard they were the best part.
Beautiful eyelashes tho

How long do you cook them until they're ready?

River rocks do this if they still have water inside
Toss some in the fire on your next canoe trip and you will know I'm rght

>>18545205
I've done this umpeen times and the worst that ever happened was they split in half from the heat, and you don't even know it you just see them broken in the ashes in the morning. doesn't happen anon. or at least not at any rate worth worry about

>>18545211
Not that guy, but there are a great many different kind of rocks. Why the hell you would keep playing a risky game where you find one that could have water appropriately placed inside so it blows up is beyond me. Go win a darwin award by throwing wet rocks from the water into fire. Or speed up the process by proving your gun is unloaded by looking down the barrel and pulling the trigger. I mean, you're sure right?

>>18545227
don't be glib anon. that was very glib.

Never make buuz(mongolian steamed dumpling) from whole grain flour it will look like shit
