Heston Blumenthal has made his name creating such original dishes as snail porridge and nitrogen scrambled egg and bacon ice cream at his internationally acclaimed restaurant, The Fat Duck. In this book, Heston focuses his creative talent on reinventing some of our most well-known (and most abused) dishes. The stories of how he and his team went about researching and creating superb dishes are very readable, even for the non-expert.
