Nichola Fletcher and her husband John started Britain's first deer farm in 1973, and Nichola has devoted her life since then to helping people to appreciate, understand and cook venison and other game meats. The Fletchers have been nominated for a Slow Food Award, and were joint winners of the Best Food Producer category in the 2006 BBC Food & Farming Awards for their work with venison.
She is past Chairman of the British Deer Farmers Association Promotions Committee, and was also a Director of Scottish Farm Venison Ltd. As Deputy Chair of the Food Trust of Scotland she is a champion of the small specialist food producer and a founder member of the Scottish Food Group. She was awarded the 1994 Scottish Food Achievement Award for her work for the Scottish venison industry.
Over the years Nichola has given many specialist workshop courses for cookery schools, private tuition sessions, and international lectures. She did the game cooking demonstrations for the CLA Game Fair for many years and has done the Scottish Game Fair demonstrations since it started. She works with the Deer Commission for Scotland on their 'Best Practice' events, teaching stalkers how to make the best of their venison.
"Nichola Fletcher is a talented cook with the unusual experience of having managed Britain's first deer farm in Auchtermuchty, Scotland, with her husband for more than a decade and of being a nationally recognised jewellery designer. The combination of her qualifications with the fruits of a country life has resulted in a book of remarkable and unusual recipes, enlivened by some perceptive and entertaining comments on the history and uses of game.
The recipes - for salmon, trout, pheasant, guinea fowl, quail, pigeon and venison - are based on a thorough understanding of the nature of the ingredients used coupled with flair, style and a precision of detail that ensures the dishes look as good as they taste. The culinary virtues of game are now widely recognised - game is often very low in fat and high in flavour, and changes brought about by increased care and attention in breeding and rearing mean that excellent quality game is within the reach of everyone. After reading Game for All you will undoubtedly be all for game!"
