Poultry--chicken, turkey, duck, goose and game birds--are among the

most versatile ingredients available to the home cook. They take well to

almost any preparation, from the simplest roasting with fresh herbs to

more elaborate presentations such as pates and galantines. Piquantly spiced

or delicately subtle, in salads or stews, sauteed, stuffed, broiled, poached

or fried--and for lunch, brunch or dinner--poultry is reliably abundant,

usually inexpensive and always thoroughly delicious.

Cooks all over the world agree: Poultry is a universal favorite. As

this collection of recipes from the pages of Bon Appetit tantalizingly dem-

onstrates, poultry is an international master of disguise, It can appear with

the zip of Szechwan Spicy Tangerine Chicken (page 42) and Honey-brined

Smoked Duck, (page 74) or with the refined elegance of Chicken Breasts

with Pearl Onions and Gratin of Mixed Greens (page 9) or Pheasant

Souvaroff (page 84).

Not to say that you won t find poultry here in intriguing variations

of its more familiar guises. For instance, Braised Turkey with Lemon and

Cinnamon (page 63) and Turkey Paupiettes with Creamed Chestnuts (page

61) are both dressed-up twists on a genuine American tradition. Braised

Goose with Red Wine Sauce (page 82) and Smoked Herb-seasoned Quail

(page 89) are classic specialties that are easy to prepare yet sophisticated

enough for company. And to help turn even the simplest poultry dish into

an occasion, there is also included a helpful chapter on stuffings and

sauces--with enough variety from around the world to suit any menu.

Each chapter also contains tips and techniques to make preparation

as easy as possible, including how to cut up and bone a whole chicken,

simple steps to the perfect roast duck, and how to cook a turkey in a

microwave oven.

Good cooks everywhere have put the advantages of poultry to delect-

able use throughout history. Now it is easy to follow in their footsteps

and discover the wealth of culinary possibilities poultry can provide.
