Hi there,
My name is Keith and I have decided to create this blog about food but not just any old type of food as the main focus will be Field To Fork cuisine.
I am far from being a professional cook but I do love my food and I have always been eager to try my hand at creating simple and delicious dishes. As a father of two, dinner time can be a real pain and having fallen into a rut of convenience food, I had had enough and wanted to create real simple dishes, packed with flavour that doesn’t ruin the bank account.
Throughout my journey into the world of Field To Fork cooking, I will be sharing my ideas and recipes, using meat that has been locally sourced. You will hopefully be inspired to learn something new and feel free to get in touch with suggestions that you might have tried. I’m keen to try my hand at anything in the kitchen and for the best part, all meat used will be game or wildfowl.
You may be wondering “Why is this guy banging on about game meat”? The answer is quite simple really, for many years society have become reliant on convenience foods sold every supermarket, however, the mass production of the likes of cows, chickens, pigs etc has a massive impact on the earth and the carbon footprint left behind is huge, not to mention the poor conditions some of these animals are kept in. Whilst this may sound like a contraction, hear me out because it’s pretty simple.
Ever since mankind began, we have been hunter gatherers. We went into the wild, we caught an animal, we killed it and we provided our families with food to survive. I feel that by going back to the basics of where our food comes from and understanding the journey that your food has taken is key. It is a vital step for me, not only as someone who loves animals but as someone who wants to appreciate the food I am eating and that my family is eating.
I love food and I love to know where my food has come from. I’d be more inclined to eat venison from a deer that has roamed freely than a chicken that has never seen daylight and with this in mind, I have launched myself into the world of Field To Fork cooking.
That’s it for now but please follow my endeavours on Instagram and on my blog.
Cheers
Keith
