Overview'This is not a cook book but a true source of knowledge and inspiration.' - Zero Waste Europe Silo maps out an extraordinary new plan from radical young chef Douglas McMaster, founder of SILO the first zero food-waste restaurant-a food system for the future. He's a man on a mission-dedicated to weaning us from our entrenched and over-processed food habits, encouraging us to go for the purest, most natural and efficient way to cook and eat, committed to de-industrializing our food system so that we eat fresh, waste less and make the most of what nature gives us. 'Closed-loop systems,' 'radical suppliers,' 'off-grid ingredients,' 'waste-free prep' and 'clean farming' are just some of the words you will find in this polemic on the future of food as we know it. These are just some of the raw ingredients deftly chopped and mixed into an irresistible and intoxicating fusion. Part inspiration, part practical kitchen know-how, part philosophy-just add anarchic flavours and a dash of pure hope for a beautifully crafted book destined to be a refreshingly radical addition to your kitchen library. 'I've always said that it's in a chef's DNA to utilize what would otherwise be thrown away. We are hardwired to take the uncoveted and make it delicious. But Doug McMaster is on another level entirely-he is doing some of the most thorough and thoughtful work on food waste today. This book gives you more than a glimpse into his mind. It provides a much needed roadmap for a future of limited resources and growing demands.' - Dan Barber, Chef/Co-owner of Blue Hill and Blue Hill at Stone Barns Full Product DetailsAuthor: Douglas McMasterPublisher: Quarto Publishing PLC Imprint: Leaping Hare Press ISBN: 9781782406136ISBN 10: 1782406131 Pages: 176 Publication Date: 27 June 2019 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Available To Order ![]() We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
