Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 lb pheasant hen, cleaned (up to
- 2 1/2; lb)
1 onion, quartered
1 bay leaf
6 peppercorns
1 sm carrot, sliced
1 celery stalk, sliced
1 ts salt
4 tb butter
1 pn thyme, powdered
1/4 ts rosemary, dried and crumbled
1/4 c mushrooms, chopped
2 tb flour
2 tb black walnut meats, finely
-chopped

COOK BIRDS: Split pheasant down the breastbone (or have your butcher do
this). Rinse the halves, place in a deep pot and barely cover with water.
Add bay leaf, onion, carrot, celery, salt and peppercorns.

Bring to rolling boil, then turn down heat and simmer for approximately 30
minutes, or until tender. Remove foam and scum as it forms. Remove bird(s)
from broth, reserving the broth.

Using a heavy skillet, saute the halves in about 2 T of the butter until
golden. Place birds into small roasting pan or casserole with just enough
water to cover the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with thyme and rosemary.
Bake, lightly covered with foil, for 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees F.

MAKE GRAVY: While the birds are in the oven, strain the broth and boil
rapidly down to about 2 cups.

Brown the mushrooms using the same skillet in which you browned the
pheasant. Remove the mushrooms and keep them warm.

Melt the remaining 2 T of butter in the skillet. Add the flour, stirring
up the browning from the pan. Cook over moderately high heat until golden
brown. Blend in the broth using a wire whisk.

Add mushrooms and continue cooking approximately 1-2 minutes. Turn down
heat, cover and keep warm until pheasant is roasted.

When the pheasants are cooked, remove them from the oven and scrape the
herbs from the skin. After placing the pheasant halves on a warm platter
(or leaving them in the casserole), pour the gravy over the pheasant.
Garnish with the chopped nutmeats and serve. This dish is particularly good
with wild rice.

NOTES:

* Pheasant in the North American tradition -- This recipe is adapted from
the exceptionally good, controlled-circulation Recipes Only Magazine. The
original dish was created by Mary Richard for use in her Teepee Restaurant,
in Winnipeg. I found some of the ingredients hard to locate in a hurry and
used what I had available with good results. You can substitute rock
Cornish hen, guinea fowl, or chicken for the pheasant and hazelnuts,
filberts or walnuts for the black walnuts.

: Difficulty: easy once you have the all the ingredients ready.
: Time: 40 minutes preparation, 80 minutes cooking.
: Precision: measure the spices.
