About Dove

Dove is a type of game bird commonly enjoyed in various cuisines worldwide, particularly in Mediterranean, European, and Southern American cooking. Known for its rich and earthy flavor, dove meat is lean, tender, and packed with protein. This makes it a popular choice among those seeking a healthier alternative to fattier meats. It also contains essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which are vital for energy production and immune function. However, since dove is often prepared with rich marinades, oils, or fried in traditional recipes, these cooking methods can increase its calorie and fat content, potentially affecting its overall health benefits. When cooked simply, such as roasted or grilled, dove meat can be a nutritious and flavorful addition to a balanced diet. As it is a wild-caught food, dove is naturally free from hormones or additives, catering to those seeking more natural protein sources.
