If this is not a cookbook, then what is it? In this book, chef Heston Blumenthal wanted to tell a story that could not be summarized in a cookbook. At least, not in a conventional cookbook, where the recipes are presented as a more or less inviolable set of instructions that must be followed with military precision. No, Heston shows you why you should take certain steps in a recipe. With intriguing recipes, such as shrimp cocktail-in-a-bun, kimcheese toasties, and savory oatmeal with bacon and egg, Heston shows you how to take your kitchen skills to a whole different level.
