Introduction

I have a rack of cookbooks.  Many were gifts, all are good reads and some I've taken a step further and actually cooked from.  I recieved another one this season from my brother and it has begun to take upon a life of its own.

The book is 'The Whole Beast: Nose to Tail Eating' by Fergus Henderson.  It has dominated much of my time in the kitchen and in general in the few weeks I've owned it.  I was forced to borrow it back to my brother as I was so taken aback with its content that I had to share it - as much as this hurt me to be away from my precious book for a short period.

I intend to continue cooking recipes from it and documenting my progress here.  I will unabashedly improvise on ingredients and techniques that I do not agree with or have other reasons to be opposed.  This may come across wrong to those that are familiar with the books info; fear not, I shall not replace any of the offal described therein.  I shall say no more on this particular angle, as it will be wholeheartedly explained as the times arise within the individual recipes and blog posts.


And here we go!
