Janie Hibler has had a freezer stocked full of game since the day she
married an avid hunter thirty-two years ago. She was a founding member of
the International Association of Culinary Professionals and the Portland
Culinary Alliance. A regular contributor to national magazines, she is
the author of Dungeness Crabs and Blackberry Cobblers, which was nominated
for a James Beard Award. She lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband,
Gary, but they spend weekends at their cabin in the Cascade Mountains
enjoying the outdoors and cooking game.
Northwest cooks have made the most of the incredible bounty of a vastly
diverse terrain - ocean, mountains, fertile valleys, and desert. Cooking
teacher and food writer Janie Hibler weaves the strand of local culinary
history into this collection of 220 delectable recipes, blending the old
with the new.
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, it is tender and flavorful,
and, best of all, readily available in butcher shops and grocery stores
everywhere.
