Les Les Abats by Michel Roux Jr

With his trademark French elegance and style, Michel Roux Jr takes readers on an epicurean adventure, with recipes that use the whole beast.
One for dedicated food fans, with access to a good butcher, because this, as French speakers will realise, is all about offalUnrelentingly meaty, with no pretty pictures, Roux offers recipes for chopped liver, pickled venison heart and poached calf's head. -- Claire Coleman * METRO *
There's a cost to eating only certain cuts of meat, as well as a whole lot of waste. From brains to intestines and organs, in Les Abats, Roux shares ways to make the most of the whole animal, from snout to tail. * THE IRISH NEWS *
No bone marrow in Michel Roux Jr.'s tribute to offal, Les Abats: Recipes Celebrating the Whole Beast but pretty much everything extreme belonging to an animal is. Cooks need to be in safe hands with offal, never a problem with a Roux family member, so dive into the uncharted and try chicken liver gratin, the crispy feet of the same bird. hake throats a pil pil or a sweetbread and black pudding tart. A classic, bravely without images; but Roux's enthusiasm for his subject is enough. -- Rose Prince * THE SPECTATOR *
After apprenticeships with Maitre Patissier Hellegouarche in Paris and Alain Chapel in Mionnay, and basic training with the French army, Michel Roux Jr worked for two years at the Elysee Palace under French Presidents D'Estaing and Mitterrand. Posts with Pierre Koffman at La Tante Claire and at the Mandarin in Hong Kong led to firstly the Waterside Inn with uncle Michel and then to Le Gavroche under his father Albert. He ran the Roux catering businesses for three years before in 1991 becoming Chef de Cuisine at Le Gavroche, the restaurant his father Albert and uncle Michel Sr founded in 1967.
