Smoked Whisky Mallard Breast
Smoked Whiskey Mallard Breast
Mallards are wild ducks that can only be hunted during the game season. Their flesh is richer than the farmed variety and far less fatty. Cured in whisky and lightly smoked keeps the meat succulent and moist.

Pheasant Breast wrapped in Bacon
Pheasant Breast wrapped in Bacon
Pheasant breast have very pleasant tasting meat, similar to chicken. Often the problem with pheasant dishes is that the breast needs a lot less cooking than the leg meat. So when they are cooked together you usually end up with dry breast meat. By wrapping skinless pheasant breast in bacon you provide a little fat to help keep them moist. This is a very quick and easy dish to prepare for a week day meal.

Pigeon Terrine
A slice ofPigeon Terrine
Pigeon terrine, a dish that's both rustic and refined, is perfect for those seeking a unique and flavourful appetiser. Though its popularity may ebb and flow, terrine offers a timeless elegance, especially when crafted with tender pigeon breast. I created this recipe after I was given several pigeons from the local farmer. It yields a light yet satisfying terrine that pairs beautifully with Melba toast, making it an ideal starter for any occasion.
