Technique is all about cooking good food and "Kitchen University" is all about technique. It is simply the best "How To" Cookbook there is, without exception. "Kitchen University" was written with a "How To" philosophy, putting the accent of the book on techniques rather than over-done recipes or hard to find ingredients. Using this book will teach you how to cook, rather than teaching you how to read a recipe. Most cookbooks find a home on a coffee table or on a bookshelf, "Kitchen University" will find it's home in your kitchen, along side your Chef's knife, peeler or paring knife as perhaps the most important and useful kitchen utensil you own.
'It would be disingenuous to the animal not to make the most of the whole beast; there is a set of delights, textural and flavoursome, which lie beyond the fillet.' In this new collection of recipes, Fergus Henderson, award-winning author of Nose to Tail Eating, inspires with more carnivorous classics such as deep-fried rabbit, pigeon pie, venison liver and pressed pig's ear. Justin Piers Gellatly, Head Baker and Pastry Chef at St. John Restaurant, introduces us to the world of breads and sweets - sourdough loaves and lardy cakes, puddings such as chocolate baked Alaska, burnt sheep's milk yoghurt and goat's curd cheesecake, and delicious ice creams including bay leaf and the famous Dr. Henderson. This covetable collection is complemented by quirky colour photographs by Jason Lowe and a St. John-inspired monochrome design, making it the perfect companion to Fergus's first book.

"These essays are noble relics indeed, and Jekyll has the puff-pastry touch."--BookForum "Three cheers to Persephone Books for publishing this witty, sharp writer, nostalgic but unsentimental, humorous but precise, erudite and always elegant."--"Country Living" "Kitchen Essays is a rare thing, a cookbook that is as fun to read as its food is to eat."--"Sunday Herald" (Glasgow) " An] exquisitely reprinted period piece."--"BBC Good Food" magazine First published in "The Times" (London) during the 1920s, "Kitchen Essays" explains the proper way to make Lobster Newburg while offering fascinating insight into the social history of England. Agnes Jekyll felt that cooking should fit the occasion and temperament and states that "a large crayfish or lobster rearing itself menacingly on its tail seems quite at home on a sideboard of a Brighton hotel-de-luxe, but will intimidate a shy guest at a small dinner-party." And that "a hardy sportsman should not be fed in the same way as a depressed financier." Agnes Jekyll (1860-1937) was the daughter of William Graham, Liberal MP for Glasgow and patron of the Pre-Raphaelites. A celebrated hostess and entertainer, her first dinner party included Robert Browning, John Ruskin, and Edward Burne-Jones. She lived in Surrey, England. |
