The Complete Nose to Tail is an exhilarating compendium that brings together maverick chef Fergus Henderson's two acclaimed cookbooks--Whole Beast and Beyond Nose to Tail.
Adventurous palates as well as some of the most famous names in the food world--including Mario Batali, Anthony Bourdain, Jamie Oliver, and Daniel Boulud--flock to Fergus Henderson's London restaurant, St. John, to indulge in his culinary artistry. A conscientious and resourceful chef who lives by the motto Nose to Tail, Henderson advocates using everything that is possibly edible of fowl, beast, and fish, creating dishes that fuse high sophistication with a strong tradition of rustic thriftiness.
The Complete Nose to Tail presents Henderson's complete culinary oeuvre: recipes that offer a unique and delicious eating experience.

Accompanied by inspiration from All Shall Be Well: A Modern-Language Version of the Showings of Julian of Norwich
Julian of Norwich was deeply concerned with the spiritual world-but she believed it was firmly rooted in the practical ordinary details of daily life, including eating and tasting. Her thoughts pair well with the recipes of her day, for she writes again and again of the nourishment God gives to us and the sweet taste of the Divine.
Joy and love are the two words that best sum up Julian's spirituality. May this cookbook, based on the food of Julian's lifetime as well as her writing, give you joy . . . and the certainty that you are Divinely loved.
