Fergus Henderson caused something of a sensation when he opened his
restaurant St John in London in 1995. Set in a former smokehouse
near Smithfield meat market, its striking, high ceilinged white
interior provides a dramatic setting for food of dazzling boldness
and simplicity. As signalled by the restaurant's logo of a pig
(reproduced on the cover of Nose to Tail Eating) and appropriately
given the location, at St John the emphasis is firmly on meat. And
not the noisettes, fillets, magrets and so forth of standard
restaurant portion-control, all piled up into little towers in the
middle of the plate: Henderson serves up the inner organs of beasts
and fowls in big, exhilarating dishes that combine high
sophistication with peasant roughness. Nose to Tail Eating is a
collection of these recipes, celebrating, as the title implies, the
thrifty rural British traditions of making delicious virtue out of
using every part of the animal. This new edition, beautifully
redesigned, comes with an introduction by Anthony Bourdain.
Learn how to make 20 cute kitties using easy techniques and
inexpensive materials. The techniques are explained with
easy-to-follow instructions, and no previous experience of sugar
crafting is needed. The materials used are widely available from
major cake suppliers. These characterful cats include a Siamese, a
Burman, a Ragdoll and lots of moggies including a ginger tom, a
tabby and a tortoiseshell. There are also some very cute kittens to
make. The author makes this very easy, with all the component parts
pictured and very clear step-by-step instructions, plus an
informative section at the beginning on tools and materials.
