This is a collection of poultry and game bird recipes, some of which have been passed down through several generations of my Pensylvania Dutch family, others inspired by Italian friends and recipes I read, and the remainder of my own creation. I suppose that many of us make more chicken than any other meat for the obvious reasons: it is healthier, economical and very versatile. I know that, when I don't want to think about what to make for dinner, I often have chicken and use one of my favorite "standby" recipes. Turkey is equally versatile and delicious, so don't save it just for holidays. Game birds, such as quail, squab and cornish game hen (which is actually just a small chicken), are delicious and make quick, elegant presentations for special dinners. What is not available in your grocery store can be purchased through reputable online stores. I have included a recipe for stock, as well as some of my favorite stuffings, dressings, sauces and relishes that can be served as side dishes. I hope you enjoy!
