How does horse compare to other meats?
Mmm, I had horse many times in my life. To me it tastes like horse. I'd say it has a bit more taste than beef (beef is quite bland IMHO, not really a fan) so more similar to pork in this regard. But less fat than pork. It is about as chewy as good lamb. For me personally horse is a better lean steak than beef. But beef is better when it has a lot of fat. Basically, horse meat has taste, but in beef fat has taste.
That sounds a lot like deer which is what I was assuming you'd say!
I thought of venison too.
Venison has a very iron-y taste which I enjoy. This looks pretty similar to it, nice and dark red. Horse isn't something we eat where I'm from but I'd definitely try it given the opportunity.
Venison is gamey. Because it is a game meat. Horse is not. They are very similar texturally indeed, but the flavour is completely different.
I had horse meat sashimi once in Korea and I remember it being sweeter.
