WINNER OF THE FORTNUM & MASON DEBUT FOOD BOOK AWARD 2021 WINNER OF 2021 LAKELAND BOOK OF THE YEAR 'Extraordinary. Vivid, irreverent, heartbreaking.' NIGEL SLATER 'So funny and so delicious. I could eat it.' DAWN O'PORTER 'Delicious.' THE OBSERVER From an early age, Grace Dent was hungry. As a little girl growing up in Currock, Carlisle, she yearned to be something bigger, to go somewhere better. Hungry traces her story from growing up eating beige food to becoming one of Britain's best-loved food writers. It's also everyone's story - from cheese and pineapple hedgehogs and treats with your nan, to the exquisite joy of a chip butty covered in vinegar and too much salt in the school canteen on a grey day. And the Cadbury's Fruit & Nut from a hospital vending machine that tells a loved one you really care. Grace's snapshot of how we have lived, laughed and eaten over the past 40 years reveals the central role food plays in either bringing us together or driving us apart - from toasting a large glass of warm Merlot to grimly polishing off a wilted salad. Heartfelt, witty and joyous, Hungry shows us what we've always known to be true. Food, friends and family are the indispensable ingredients of a life well lived.
With 40 delicious variations on the classic Negroni cocktail, this is

Now a Netflix series. WINNER OF THE FORTNUM & MASON BEST DEBUT FOOD BOOK 2018 While cooking at Chez Panisse at the start of her career, Samin Nosrat noticed that amid the chaos of the kitchen there were four key principles that her fellow chefs would always fall back on to make their food better: Salt, Fat, Acid and Heat.

And with her simple but revolutionary method, she has taught masterclasses to give both professionals and amateurs the skills to cook instinctively. Whether you want to balance your vinaigrette, perfectly caramelise your roasted vegetables or braise meltingly tender stews, Samin’s canon of 100 essential recipes and their dozens of variations will teach you how. “Quite simply an essential book … a masterpiece” - NIGELLA LAWSON “I have become slightly obsessed … revolutionary in its simplicity” - YOTAM OTTOLENGHI

I have always loved to bake. I found cooking difficult, especially after I got married. It took years to get to a level where I am proud of my cooking. Proud that all that experimenting finally paid off and now I dona t freak out at the thought of guests coming for dinner, I welcome it. Every Ramadan for the last 6 years I have raised money for charity with my children. We have sold cakes, sweets, balloons, absolutely anything! This year I started teaching children how to cook online. Which gave me the idea to write a cookbook of the recipes I was teaching them. Recipes that are easy to make and that are perfect for those new to cooking. The whole idea behind these classes was to teach the next generation how to cook hearty homely meals easily. The profits from this cookbook will help out individuals in desperate need of something, whether it be medical assistance, a house, clothes, rations, a wedding, anything that they cana t get the help for easily. I am targeting, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan as I have reliable people on the ground that can check to see that it is a genuine cause and send evidence of where the money will be spent. I will update the website www.kitchenmagiccookbook.com regularly with the profits made from the cookbook and which projects have been funded. Thank you for your support, I pray you all love the dishes you cook from this book and they bring joy to your family as they do to mine!
