The Orvis Cookbook

Orvis represents the best in outdoor life - and what is the essence of living well in the outdoors if not eating well of Mother Nature's purest ingredients? In The Orvis Cookbook, Romi Perkins offers her years of expertise with complete fish and game menus to bring out the unique flavours of such pleasures as pheasant, venison, and wild salmon, and advises on the wines that complement them. Extraordinary dishes grace this wonderful cookbook, including Roasted Canada Goose with Butternut Squash and Chestnut Puree, Smoked Venison Haunch, Roast Quail on Grit Croustadines, Quail Hash on Buttered Wild Rice, Red Snapper with Sour Cream, Grilled Sharptail Grouse, and "The Best Salmon Recipe of Them All." Romi Perkins also provides recipes for side dishes and desserts that perfectly balance each entree, including Basil Fritatta, Spinach Roulade with Mushroom Sauce, Melon in Lemon-Ginger Marinade, and Calvados Apple Tart. The Orvis Cookbook blends flavours as eternal as the hunt itself with the exciting cross-cultural influences of the new millennium. And the invaluable appendix by the author's husband, Leigh Perkins, shows how to clean, pluck, hang, cook, and freeze game. The Orvis Cookboo
