This is Nigel Slaters all-time favourite cookbook: If I could only keep one cookbook, this would be it.How To Eatsuits the way I cook.

I love Nigella Lawsons writing and I love her recipes Delia Smith

Theres an intelligence to the way she writes and she expects a certain intelligence of her readers as well Nigel Slater

I am unapologetic about being a home cook rather than a chef. Real cooking, the sort that goes on in homes, does not have to be tricksy or difficult. A dish of chicken poached with leeks and carrots definitely isnt fancy. But it tastes good, and feels essentially nourishing, to both body and soul, to cook and eat. I want you to feel that Im there with you, in the kitchen, as you cook. My books are the conversations we might be having. Nigella Lawson has written nine bestselling cookery books, including the classicsHow To EatandHow to Be A Domestic Goddess the book that launched a thousand cupcakes. These books, her TV series and herQuick Collectionapps, have made her a household name around the world. In 2014 she was voted Best Food Personality at theObserverFood Monthly Awards.
