Essential Cooks Books - Episode Dos




This book is a fascinating read. One of my favorite parts of the book is the argument against vegetarianism.

If you are a fan of the book's namesake, then you should go out and buy it. Hugh Fearnley- Whittingstall is extremely passionate about the subject matter and spends the entire 1st 100 pages or so helping one understand meat.

Below is an interesting clip wherein Hugh demonstrates how to grow your own food in urban areas. This show originally aired on BBC and is quite insightful.



Watching Hugh follow someone around with"fine rotted horse muck"(manure)...priceless.

Check out the River Cottage Handbook series of books as well. I just ordered the 1st four on Amazon and hope they arrive in time for my birthday!!
