Product Information
For the hunter-gatherer, butchering food was simply a matter of cutting to make the maximum use of an animal's edible flesh. It was not so much a skill as a necessity. Thankfully we no longer go, spear in hand, to track our food but our convenient, off- the-shelf way of life has removed us from the source of our food and, some would argue, our respect for it.Current trends for local food and a more self-sufficient lifestyle have prompted a desire to restore these traditional skills back to the prominence they once enjoyed in the nation's kitchens. New landowners who now account for some 47 per cent of newcomers to the countryside, are also in need of these long lost skills as they try to maximise their earnings from their herds and flocks.Product Identifiers
