Helpful Hints:

Puffin is a traditional dish in Iceland where the wild game birds have been part of the diet since the earliest settlers. Puffin is not easy to obtain outside of Iceland. In the USA the wild birds have been hunted to the brink of extinction. Icelanders are a bit more careful with their natural resources and still have many Puffin - the national bird - while being able to enjoy a puffin feast.
