On visiting his local butcher,Norman Tebbit,food lover and family cook, wondered why people would rather buy tasteless,rubbery chicken when they could eat good-quality game,often for less money. 'Mostly',replied the butcher,'because they think it's difficult'. In this exciting new cook book,Norman Tebbit showcases his favourite game recipes including pheasant,partridge,duck,grouse, wood pigeon, woodcock,deer,rabbit and many more.Whether the recipe is a relatively simple casserole,Tebbit's easy to follow style will guarantee consistent results.And to help the reader along,he also includes instructions on preparation and equipment to use,as well as individual hints and tips on the various game included. Written with humour and a practical approach,there is,as you would expect,nothing bland in this book, making it a mouth-watering morsel for those who love food,who care about where their food comes from,and who are looking for tasty, wholesome game dishes. The Rt. Hon. Norman Tebbit CH,PC,is a former Member of Parliament for Chingford and Cabinet minister.He is the author of several books, including 'Britain's Future', 'Upwardly Mobile' and 'Unfinished Business' .He is a keen amateur cook and a fan of Delia Smith and of Sophie Grigson too.
