I've started a new project, and I hope everyone will come over and take a look.
Rather then devote myself to The Whole Beast by Fergus Henderson which was the original idea, I am simply going to try and cook in the spirit of nose to tail eating. Now being a graduate student with a small space and even less money I am not going to go out and buy and entire creature (as much as I'd like too), but go in search of tripe, feet, brains and liver and do the best I can with them. If anyone has a book that will help me along my way please send me the title, if anyone has a dish from their childhood that uses offal or other seldom used parts of livestock please send it my way as well.
The possibilities that lay before me are a little daunting, but it's all very exciting.
There will be lots of pictures, and the occasional curse word. The first recipe that I plan on making is pig's ear and split pea soup, and I'm excited about it. I launched the new site a few days ago, but then pulled it back again because I think that it needs a little more love before I release it on the world. I'm hoping to get it back up ASAP.

I wonder about doing a soup. Like when we went to Pho and there is tripe, some sort of meat balls (I suspect not made with the "prime" parts of the beast") and the rare beef.
