Cook, Eat, Repeat by Nigella Lawson
5.0
I've been slowly making my way through this, stealing moments in the day to read a few essays and recipes. It is important to spend time with Nigella as each recipe is rich with detail and sentences as beautiful as the food on the opposite page.
I think this has swiped the title of favourite Nigella cookbook. The premise is gorgeous: one of recipes we return to again and again that fill up our life. Since I've starting reading, I've already made her fish finger bhorta, no knead bread and sandwich loaf regular recipes in my repertoire. I've baked many things from this too and am eagerly looking forward to repeating those soon.
As a vegetarian I think there is a good level of both meaty recipes, which I can admire but won't be cooking, vegetarian and vegan. As well as plenty of gluten free options. Some are quite easily adaptable as well - the fish finger bhorta, for example, which I make with quorn fishless fingers and wouldn't want to go without!
If you are looking for a cookbook to inspire and treasure, this is it.
