1857 Tabatiere Breech-loading Shotgun
Frequently known as “Zulu”.
Own the original!
This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Here we present a Tabatiere Breech-loading Shotgun, frequently known as “Zulu”. The origin of this shotgun is an interesting one. Originally, this was an 1857 French musket. Soon after they converted these muzzleloaders to breech-loaders, using the Snider system, so that they became known as the System 1867. They were used in the Franco-Prussian War in which the French were defeated. By the end of the war, the French decided that the converted muskets were unacceptable and once again updated their arsenals, this time with the 1874 Gras. Being that there was no military use for these surplus guns as they were, a Belgian gunmaker, Bertrand & Fils, had the idea to convert these (for a second time) into shotguns.

Servings: 4
Food Network ~ Step by Step
Make the sides before browning the lamb chops in a cast iron skillet for a meal that's ready in less than an hour.
Recipe by: Food Network magazine
-
Ingredients:
- 1 large cucumber, halved lengthwise, seeded and thinly sliced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small onion, roughly chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 bunch cilantro, leaves finely chopped and stems roughly chopped
- 1 pound large carrots, sliced 1/2 inch thick
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 jalapeno pepper, minced (remove seeds for less heat)
- 4 lamb shoulder chops (1/2 inch thick; about 6 ounces each)
- Put the cucumber slices in a colander and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss. Let sit 20 minutes to drain.
- Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, coriander and turmeric and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add 1 cup water, the cilantro stems and carrots and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a food processor and puree until smooth, at least 1 minute.
- Season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; cover to keep warm.
- Gently squeeze out any excess water from the cucumbers and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons olive oil, the vinegar, cilantro leaves, garlic and jalapeno; season with pepper.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper; rub all over with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cook the lamb chops two at a time, turning once, until browned, 6 to 7 minutes for medium doneness. Serve with the carrot puree and cucumber salad.
