Description:
Hunting for a fresh chicken in a supermarket is one thing, but bagging a plump pheasant with nothing more than a cardboard tube and a poncho is quite another. In The Contented Poacher's Epicurean Odyssey, wily woodswoman Elantu B. Veovode details the finer points of the chase, with humorous tales of close encounters, unique hunting strategies, and delectable recipes. Try Lemon Roadrunner with Almonds, Porcupine in Pomegranate Sauce, or Rattlesnake Potpie with Prickly Pear Apples; other recipes feature venison, moose, woodchuck, prairie dog, and armadillo (complete with supermarket-bought substitutions). A rare treat for true do-it-yourself cooks as well as armchair survivalists and culinarians, The Contented Poacher's anecdotes and cooking tips will satisfy your taste for the hunt.
