The haunch of the roe deer is used for steak and roe deer roast. The meat is butter-tender, finely short-fibered, and quick to prepare. The flavor of the meat is partly determined by the diet and age of the animal. The younger the roe deer, the more tender the meat. The meat is tastiest when it is still slightly pink in color. Roe deer pairs well with various types of sauces, such as red wine sauce, cognac sauce, and red currant sauce. Also delicious with beets and apple and various mushrooms.
