The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

30-60 minutes
30-60 minutes
ingredients
2 shallots, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
5 1/2 teaspoons five-spice powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 quail, washed, patted dry, and flattened
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon Szechuan peppercorns, lightly smashed
1/2 lime, cut into 4 pieces
directions
Place the shallots and garlic in a mortar and pound into a paste. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the oyster sauce, white pepper, fish sauce, five-spice powder, and oil and mix well. Add the quail and let marinate for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the salt mixture. In a small saute pan over low heat, dry roast the salt and peppercorns until fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Divide salt mixture into small ramekins.
Preheat oven to broil. Place quail, skin side up, on a baking sheet and place under the broiler on the top rack. Cook to desired doneness, about 10 to 15 minutes.
If barbecueing, preheat grill to moderate heat. Cook each side about 3 to 5 minutes.
Serve on a bed of cabbage salad with the salt mixture on the side. Squeeze lime juice into the salt mixture before dipping pieces of quail in it.
