Quail Casserole image

I have a really cool cookbook called "The Washington Cookbook" which is a compilation of recipes from Washington state compiled in 1982. This is a wild game recipe I have never tried posted in response to a request from the wild game forum. The original recipe calls for simply "flour & salt" with no measurement so the 1 cup flour is a guess. If you make this please let me know so that I can change it to the appropriate amount. Prep time is approximate.
