This is definitely the season for die-hard carnivores. Here's how to make the most of game, from venison and wild boar to rabbit and duck.
Wild game is delicious, healthy and sustainable but often plays second fiddle to readily available farmed livestock such as beef, lamb and chicken. Most cookbooks will have dozens of recipes featuring chicken but are unlikely to feature much quail or rabbit, leaving home cooks a little adrift when it comes to making the most of wild game. For our top tips on the best cuts and how to handle them like a pro, click here.
Roasted or grilled, braised or served as carpaccio, there are a myriad of ways to serve up venison, wild boar et al, making them perfect for a family night-in or entertaining. We've even got you covered with a guide to the best wine pairings for game so you can really impress your guests. If feathered game is more your specialty, we have the best wine matches for pheasant, grouse and duck as well.
The Falstaff team wishes you lots of fun and every success in the kitchen!
