Product Description
From the proprietor of St. John Restaurant, which won the 2001 Moet & Chandon Restaurant Award, comes this fascinating, cutting-edge guide to preparing carnivorous dishes. Written in the same entertaining and accessible voice that made Nose to Tail Eating a certified foodie classic, this beautiful new collection of recipes by Fergus Henderson teaches you everything you’ll ever need to know to prepare even more mouthwatering, offal classics, from pork scratching, fennel and ox tongue soup, and pressed pig’s ear to sourdough loaves and lardy cakes, chocolate baked Alaska, burnt sheep’s milk yogurt and goat’s curd cheesecake, among others. While taking you through more than a hundred simple, easy-to-follow recipes, Henderson explains why nearly every part of every animal we eat is a delicious treat waiting for the hands of a patient cook to prepare it.

Beyond Nose to Tail October 15, 2008 P. Schruben 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the best cook book I have ever read! The second best cook book is The Whole Beast.
Even better than The Whole Beast / Nose to Tail Eating December 17, 2007 Maxime Lachance (Ottawa, Ontario Canada) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Although much more dessert and baking oriented than I would have liked, this book still deserves all your attention as it is the perfect complement to the first book. Most recipes are written in a delightfully humorous prose dusted here and there with a few opiniated, informative or funny comments. If you like no non-sense anti-diet be-happy food, this book if you.
Among the great lessons from that book is what Henderson calls trotter gear wich is simply pre-cooked and debonned pig trotters in their cooking liquid. This can serve as the base of deliciously unctuous braises, stews or pies. I will now keep a few bags of 'trotter gear' in my freezer in the same way many keep veal stock.

Fergus is at it again, writing another delightfully written and informative book about good honest food.
I love the guy.
