We are all familiar with the flavours and ingredients of Italian cooking and how delicious they are. What is less known is how well these ingredients marry with game, such as pheasant.
As shooting season has drawn to a close, and pheasant is traditionally hung for 21 days before being consumed, it is now plentiful at local butchers and easy to source and cook at home. It’s a healthy protein choice, which is low in fat and high in protein – more than chicken and turkey. It is also a wonderful source of vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and vitamins A and B.
