hunting & cooking

The fish used in this particular preparation is what makes the recipe unique to many chefs and home cooks.

The chef’s response was: “It was just a balsamic reduction.”

Growing as a hunter also stimulates my desire to continue learning about the world around us.  

This week, instead of making a big pot of comforting, hand-warming, homemade soup to curl up on the couch with, I am having a salad!

This hand pie is filled with ground deer or elk meat that has been cooked with all the aromatic spices found in traditional corned beef.

This stew is rich and savory, very comforting, rustic, and perfect for sharing.  

While most people seem to anticipate the big game hunts in the fall, I get most excited for the spring wild turkey hunt.

Osso Bucco is Italian and translates into English as “bone with a hole.”

The stew usually contains peanut butter, hence the name “groundnut,” and is full of warming spices such as ginger and mace.

If you show up with this dip in hand you’ll leave with an empty bowl and an invitation to the next party.
