Hi am looking for a supplier or anyone who can get hold of Bison Grass. Not the vodka but the actual grass used in cooking. I am in the UK and desperate for some for our bar.

I hope someone outthere can help me.

Just out of interest, does anyone know another use for bison grass other than vodka?

Damn those baskets would smell good. :)

I can't see people cooking with it though. I guess mjg is keeping bison ;)

Why not go to your local Polish shop? With all the Poles in the UK now, there must be a few shops like that near you.

Damn that looks good. I'd probably leave out the figs though along with the sugar and lemon. Definitely keep the venison. I'll stop eating animals when they stop making them out of meat!

In the meantime, check this website - the latin name for bison grass is Hierochloe odorata and you can buy it online. You can also order the seeds but be careful the bison don't come to visit if you try growing them ;)

Growing it would be by far the best option. The stuff tends to lose most of its flavour when it dries.
