Ruffling feathers: New takes on the humble chicken
|
|
|
Weâve just added two cracking chicken books to the ckbk shelves. First up, The Good Chicken Cookbook by Marcus Bean â a guide to cooking chicken sustainably, from beak to tail.
With tips on prep, using the whole bird, and even chicken care, it's perfect for anyone wanting to give their Sunday roast a conscience.
|
|
|
|
Chicken might be a budget-friendly bird, but that doesn't mean it has to come cheap. Beanâs recipes â like Thai-style Chicken Broth, Chicken Falafel with Cucumber Raita, and a genius Crispy Chicken and Potato Crust show that good chicken starts with good choices.

Take a peck at our chicken bookshelf for more creative ways with chicken beyond the roast.
