'Without preaching, this argues for eating meat in a better way,
sustainably, ethically, intelligently and with an understanding of
farming' - Diana Henry, The Daily Telegraph This book is a
celebration of proper meat. Meat as it was before it got messed
with. Before animals became a unit of production, but were reared
to produce excellent food, and were willingly given an equally
excellent life. It explores the connection between nature and
farming and the result is a mixture of hands-in-the-earth wisdom
and balanced seasonal recipes. Meat is revered and stretched as far
as we can make it go by respecting the animal and using every part,
cheek to lard, tendon to tail. The recipes are not just meat and
two veg, but provide cooking that is devised for the way we live
today. Think a modernised version of warming farmhouse food, to
suit the weather and our homes. Fast, fresh, surprising dishes for
midweek, and slow-cooking or theatre pieces shared with friends for
weekends and holidays. Far from countering the vegan spike, this is
the definition of fair, honest, sustainable food. This is meat done
right.

Featuring recipes from Raymond's ITV series - SIMPLY RAYMOND BLANC
'Of the many cookery books that I have written, this one has the
most extraordinary story,' says Raymond Blanc. His long-held plan
to write a simple cookbook - inspired by his mother, Maman Blanc -
began months before the Covid pandemic hit. Suddenly everything
changed, and Raymond, like the rest of the world, struggled to find
a way through lockdown. At home, and isolated from his family - as
well as his army of chefs at the world-renowned two-star Michelin
restaurant Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons and his Brasserie Blanc
restaurants - Raymond cooked and cooked. He opted for the simple
dishes that evoked the happy memories, provided the connection to
those he could not be with. He focused on recipes that were neither
a challenge nor fussy. They required ingredients that were
easily-available and needed only basic kitchen equipment. The
result is Simply Raymond. It is a collection of his favourite
home-cooked recipes - the dishes that mean the most to him; the
ones that connect family and friends, and dishes that took him on
stove-side travels to other parts of the world. Dish by dish,
Simply Raymond presents an irresistible feast. This is cooking from
the heart, and here you'll find must-make dishes to add to your
weekly repertoire, as well as others for special occasions. There
is also a profound poignancy to this book. Shortly before Raymond
finished writing it, his mother sadly passed away. This book is a
heartfelt tribute to her, created with passion and thoughtfulness.
It is also a testament to the great pleasure derived from stepping
into a kitchen, simply to cook simply for others. Something he has
done all of his life. Recipes include: * Cod Cassoulet with Chorizo
and Mixed Beans * A Quick Ratatouille * Cauliflower and Red Lentil
Dhal * White Onion Soup * Beetroot Salad with Hot Smoked Salmon *
Salade Nicoise * Tartiflette * Strawberry and Mascarpone Tart
