Recipe Collection: Game recipes

The term ‘game’ applies to wild animals and birds that are hunted and eaten. It also includes birds and animals once caught in the wild that are now raised domestically, such as quail, rabbit and deer (the latter two can be farmed or wild; quails are always farmed because they are no longer allowed to be shot in the wild.

Generally, ‘game’ falls into two categories. The first is feathered game or game birds, including grouse, pheasant, partridge, quail, snipe, wild duck, woodcock and wood pigeon. The second is furred game, including hare, rabbit, venison and ‘wild’ boar. ‘Game’ meat is often considered more flavoursome than farmed meat, and may be a little tougher to chew, depending on the animal’s age.
