Emu Adds Flair to Down Home Favorites
Cookbook offers easy to use recipes
Previously found only on menus featuring exotic dishes, emu is strolling into the American kitchen, peeking in the oven, lifting a few pot lids and encouraging cooks to try something new in their old recipes. According to Louisiana Chef Dale Emu Bourgeois, emu is a high-protein, low-fat, nutrient-packed, heart-healthy red meat that can be substituted in any recipe calling for lean meat.
The 500 recipe book, Emu – Life Just Got Healthier, contains an introduction by Bourgeois expounding the merits of cooking with this low-cholesterol red meat, along with nutritional information on both emu meat and emu egg. 200 of the easy to prepare recipes feature emu as the main dish. In a delightful twist, recipes calling for egg are given the "emu equivalent" followed by the number of chicken eggs you could substitute. For example, if a recipe calls for 1
cup of emu egg, you may substitute 4 chicken eggs.
The cookbook was compiled of recipes submitted by the people that eat emu every day, members of the American Emu Association. Because emu growers across the country submitted these recipes the cookbook provides a variety of regional favorites that are sure to please. For the chef's convenience, this cookbook also lists AEA emu meat distributors.
"Emu.... Life Just Got Healthier" cookbooks are available on the AEA Website, at www.aea-emu.org or you can order by calling AEA at 541-332-0675. ######
