Kitchen by Nigella Lawson, ISBN 9780701184605

> Cooking Books > Chefs & Restaurants Books

A big, compendious, comfortable, informative and utterly engaging book, Kitchen brings us feel-good food for cooks and eaters, whether Express-style and exotic-easy during the week, or leisurely and luxuriating (in the spirit of How to be a Domestic Goddess and Feast) at weekends or for occasions.

Divided into two parts - Kitchen Quandries and Kitchen Comforts - Nigella gives us the wherewithal to tackle any situation and satisfy all nourishment needs. But real cooking is often about leftovers, too, so here one recipe can lead to another from ham hocks to pea soup and pasties, from chicken to Chinatown salad. This isn't just about being thrifty but about demonstrating how recipes come about, and giving new inspiration for last-minute
meals and souped-up storecupboard suppers.

As well as offering the reader a mouthwatering array of new recipes, both comforting and exciting from clams with chorizo to Guinness gingerbread, from Asian braised beef to flourless chocolate lime cake, from Pasta alla Genovese to Venetian carrot cake Nigella rounds up her kitchen kit must-haves (telling us, too, what equipment we don't need) and highlights individual ingredients both basic essentials and modern-day life-savers. But above all, she reminds the reader how much pleasure there is to be had in real food, and in reclaiming the traditional rhythms of the kitchen, as she cooks to the beat of the heart of the home, creating simple recipes to make life less complicated.

About the Author: Nigella Lawson

Nigella (the origins of her name are said to be 'made up by her Grandmother', but probably come from either the plant Nigella Sativa, or from Nigella seeds, used in India and the Middle East as a seasoning) Lawson was born in 1960 and one of the UK's most highly regarded food writers.
Not a trained chef, Nigella worked as a book reviewer and food critic, before releasing her first book, How To Eat, in 1998. In 2000 she began to host her own TV series, Nigella Bites. She is known for her flirtatious manner on screen and has been labelled the 'queen of food porn'. Throughout Lawson's television programmes, which are broadcast worldwide, she emphasises that she cooks for her own pleasure, for enjoyment, and that she finds cooking therapeutic. She does not like being labelled a 'Celebrity Chef'.
She has two children to her first husband who died in 2001. She married art collector Charles Saatchi in 2003 and they share a home in Belgravia, London.
