Exotic Meat Market offers Squab or young pigeon, bred for food.Our Squabs are raised with no antibiotics or hormones, in open barns and humane, stress-free conditions. Squab Meat is dark, moist, tender and flavorful. Our squabs are dressed at four weeks.
Squabs possess a characteristic which allows them to retain more moisture during the cooking process than other poultry - the result being a very versatile and easy bird to prepare for large or small groups of people. Squab is known to be one of the most easily digestible of all meats.
Squab meat is best cooked medium-rare. Squab pairs well with red wine. It’s often served with saffron rice in Arabic and Indian cuisine. I prefer squab stuffed with pistachios, almonds and cardamom.
