If, looking at a bird's carcass, you simply can't tell what's in front of you —
chicken
,
duck
,
goose
, or
turkey
— then it's definitely
game
!
In a broad sense, the word "game" refers not only to birds taken by hunting but to mammals as well. In other words, quail are game, and so is bear. Because of that,
cooking game
depends entirely on what kind of meat we have at hand. If we're dealing with a game bird, it should be handled much the same way we handle chicken or turkey.
On the whole,
game dishes
can't be called all that common at home. As a rule, game dishes are served in restaurants and themed cafes. But the moment one of the home cooks is lucky enough to marry a hunter, game dishes will show up on the dinner table more often than usual. So what about those who are far from hunting, and those genuinely shocked by the price of game in stores? It's simple here: any game can be swapped for a more affordable stand-in.
For example, there's a game dish that uses quail. Quail are easily replaced with young chickens. If a cookbook has a game recipe that mentions pheasant, it can be swapped for an ordinary duck, and so on. The flavor of the game dish will, of course, come out different (supposedly), but it won't lose its refinement.
On top of that, poultry has one fairly significant advantage over any game: its meat is more tender. Any game, however young and fresh, should be soaked in a marinade before cooking. And not for an hour, not for two, but for a day, then a second and a third. Only then does game become fit to eat. Another important point: the meat of female game is tastier than that of males. Then again, that holds true across the whole animal kingdom.
