On sent que Nettie a voulu s’entourer d’experts non végétariens, compte tenu du manque de connaissances sur le sujet qu’elle confesse sans ambages: «Pour moi, le plus grand défi aura été de me familiariser avec la viande. Je n’utilise même pas de “faux viande” dans ma cuisine, pas plus que dans ce livre, mais si ça peut aider les gens à apprendre la base, puis à explorer davantage, pourquoi pas?»

No, Nettie did not test the meat recipes herself. Instead, for taste and doneness, she relied on friends, family, her co-author and organic cattle farmer Cynthia Beretta who provides Meat Lover insights. While I love to see more attention devoted to organic breeding, Beretta’s comments tend to be largely amiable and not technical enough for my taste. I would have liked to see more hands-on information about meat cuts and such, but I’ve a feeling Nettie mostly wanted to surround herself with meat experts, given the lack of expertise on the topic she readily confesses: “For me, the biggest challenge was educating myself about meat. I don’t even use faux meat in everyday cooking, and certainly not in the book, but if it can help people learn the basics and move forward, why not?”
