Perhaps the most endearing thing about Nigella was the fact that she wrote this book without any prior formal cooking experience. There are no rules here, just guidelines for making something delicious, told in Nigella’s poetic prose. Nigella came along and used ‘handfuls’ and ‘glugs’ as measures of quantity, and this move away from perfectly-measured teaspoons taught us how to cook and critically assess for ourselves what the dish needed. How to Eat was published at a time where cookbooks were divided into two very distinct categories, namely the “cheffy” books of Gordon Ramsay and Marco Pierre White or the very homely, and quite frumpy, writings of Delia Smith and Mary Berry. Whether cooking Pasta E Fagioli or baking Orange Breakfast Muffins, Nigella knows just how to achieve maximum flavor with minimum effort.A special #tbt: this was my author photo on the original How To Eat book cover when it came out in 1998 Photograph by for #HowToEatĪ post shared by Nigella on at 2:59am PDT All the recipes are delectable to read, dreamy to look at, and, of course, delicious to eat. In Nigella Bites, Nigella shares her favorite recipes that are easy to make after a busy day at the office, perfect to linger over during a lazy weekend, or fun to make with kids on a rainy afternoon. Fans of the TV show will find all these easy-to-follow recipes familiar, and the book is even designed with pages for note taking at the end of each section. Her other books include How to Eat and How to Be a Domestic Goddess. Nigella Bites-the title is taken from Nigella Lawson's Style Network cooking show of the same name-is the third book from British Vogue food editor and New York Times food columnist Nigella Lawson, a force of nature all her own.
