Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Game is ultimately the most American ingredient, the only possible food capable of establishing itself as a defining element in a true American cuisine.' So writes Rebecca Gray in the Preface of The New Gray's Wild Game Cookbook, and for the next 61 menus and 180 individual recipes she gives us what amounts to a celebration of wild game as the ultimate gourmet food.

Rebecca Gray knows this, and every recipe here celebrates it. So will anyone lucky enough to be served its menus.…
