Fat Duck Cookbook
In this beautiful smaller format edition of the award-winning Big Fat Duck Cookbook we hear the full story of the meteoric rise of Heston Blumenthal and The Fat Duck birthplace of snail porridge and bacon-and-egg ice cream and encounter the passion perfection and weird science behind the man and the restaurant. Heston Blumenthal is widely acknowledged to be a genius and The Fat Duck has twice been voted the Best Restaurant in the World by a peer group of top chefs. But he is entirely self-taught and the story of his restaurant has broken every rule in the book.

is distributed in the centre of a souffle. In the first section of The Fat Duck Cookbook we learn the history of the restaurant from its humble beginnings to its third Michelin star (the day Heston received the news of this he had been wondering how exactly he would be able to pay his staff that month). Next we meet 50 of his signature recipes - sardine on toast sorbet salmon poached with liquorice hot and iced tea chocolate wine - which while challenging for anyone not equipped with ice baths dehydrators vacuum pumps and nitrogen on tap will inspire home cooks and chefs alike. Finally we hear from the experts whose scientific know-how has contributed to Heston's topsy-turvy world. With an introduction by Harold McGee incredible colour photographs throughout and illustrations by Dave
