The pleasure of a day out on the moors, in the mountains, woods or marshlands, using outdoor skills such as tracking, stalking or simply patiently waiting, is to respect and honour wild food; whether you are blackberry picking or stalking a stag. This, combined with knowing the land where you hunt, studying the animals, learning to read the environment, and working for your evening meal, is all part of the hunting experience. This book comprises a complete handbook of what to do with your game, whether it's your own hard-won kill, or a field-fresh purchase from a game merchant. Animals covered include upland birds and waterfowl, small furred game, red deer, wild boar and goat, and the illustrated sequences take you through every stage of butchering, whether you are trussing a whole bird for roasting, filleting a partridge breast, de-boning a haunch of venison or trimming a rack of boar ribs. There is also a wealth of advice on storing, hanging and cooking these delectable meats, including information on traditional accompaniments and flavourings. A fabulous selection of delicious recipes follows the preparation sequences, featuring many classic and contemporary dishes. Traditional game favourites such as roast partridge with caramelized pears, duck with orange sauce, roast goose, and crofter's pie sit happily with more modern dishes such as squirrel and ham skewers, potted rabbit, and barbecued goat cutlets. With recipes for all tastes and all levels of experience - from simple warm duck liver salad to a wonderfully elaborate Moroccan pigeon pie, this book holds everything the lover of game cooking needs to know. How to prepare shot birds, furred game, deer and boar - with campfire and kitchen recipes. A Practical Step-by-Step Guide to Dressing, Preparing and Cooking Game in the Field and at Home, with Over 75 Delicious Recipes and 1000 Photographs
