Kitchen

Recipes from the Heart of the Home: Fabulous feel-good food to make life less complicated and more pleasurable.

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 Quandaries 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.
