Hibler
This Cookbook-Reference Book Belongs In Every Complete Culin
From Seattle to New York, from Missoula to Miami, game is appearing on
many restaurant menus and gracing more and more tables at home.
Why? Because game, whether buffalo or boar, partridge or pigeon, is a
delicious, low-fat, nutritionally impressive, and versatile alternative to more
traditional meats. And since so much game is now farm-raised, its tender
and flavorful, and, best of all, readily available in butcher shops and
grocery stores everywhere. Clearly, the time is right for Wild About Game,
a comprehensive, updated cookbook by a nationally recognized expert in
cooking game. In this groundbreaking book, Janie Hibler offers detailed
information, helpful techniques, and contemporary recipes for wild and

farm-raised game. The 150 recipes range from simple dishes--Buffalo
Burgers and Roast Muscovy Duck with Persimmons and Figs--to
sophisticated ones--Venison Osso Buco and Ostrich Satay.Wild About
Game is divided into chapters by the types of game--birds, large game,
and small and exotic game. Each begins with an explanation of each type
of animal--wild and farm-raised--including what they eat, how and where to
buy their meat, and the best cooking method for each cut. Then comes
the best part--the recipes. Some are for farmed game, while others are
innovative twists on wild game dishes that Hibler has been cooking for
more than thirty years. And if youre hankering to make a recipe, but have
no game, Hibler offers suggestions for non-game substitutions, such as
Cornish hens for squab or pork tenderloin for venison. Other sections
include recipes for smoking game, marinades and rubs, sauces, and side
dishes.Color photographs of favorite dishes and archival photographs and
etchings are included along with a list of nutritional data for each type of
game, an unusual American game timeline, and an extensive resource list
for game that can be delivered to your doorstep. Try just one recipe from
Wild About Game, and youll soon be wild about game yourself.
Personal Review: Wild About Game: 150 Recipes for Cooking
Farm-Raised and Wild Game - from Alligator and Antelope to
Venison and Wild Turkey by Janie Hibler
I am not a hunter. I won't even step on a spider, and open windows to let
flies out. But as a food writer I am a big fan of game - both wild and farm-
raised. Just don't ask me to catch my own. The new book, "Wild About
Game" by Janie Hibler, is a cookbook plus more. Between the classy
covers Hibler has produced a veritable treatise on game: how it is raised;
information for each species on handling, seasoning, and best preparation
tchniques; a varied group of both traditional and 90's recipes; nutrition
data and mail-order game sources. What else does one ask from a
cookbook? Recipes such as "slow-roasted duckling with red currant
sauce", "venison with mustard-pepper marinade", and "pheasant with herb
dumplings and chanterelles" are as comfortable for the home kitchen as in
any five-star bistro. Just as nice as the recipes are the photos, historical
prints and drawings, and petroglyphs that illustrate "Wild About Game".
This reference-cookbook belongs in any complete culinary library.
