Gourmet Cooking for Free

Product Details

The late Bradford Angier was known as "Mr. Outdoors" by his generation, and eating off the land was his specialty. First published in 1970 Gourmet Cooking For Free is a collection of over 300 of Angier's unique and delicious recipes for preparing wild game, fish, and wild plants, that are here brought back to print. Angier included recipes for Big Game (venison, bear, moose, buffalo, caribou), Game Birds (grouse, duck, partridge, quail, pheasant, goose, turkey), Small Game (beaver, rabbit, squirrel), Fish (trout, Atlantic salmon, bass, pickerel, eels), Shellfish (clams, oysters, crabs, crayfish, mussels, turtle), Edible Plants (wild rice, water cress, nettle, wild onion, mustard, dandelion, cattail, plantain, fiddleheads), and Wild Fruit (blackberries, elderberries, currants, raspberries, cranberries). Anyone who savors new taste sensations in exceptional cuisine needs to take this carefully guided tour through nature's cupboard.

mostly meat - Nora Frankel - los angeles
good, although it does not have any information on actually gathering and identifying the vegetables and fruits listed. better for hunters and people who already know much of the plants around them by common name. the majority of the book consists of meat and fish, and the greens and fruits tend to have fairly basic recipes.
