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.

Given how much we eat, it's amazing that no book has ever been
devoted to toast. Here Heidi Nathan provides a true first with
contributions from Dame Maureen Lipman and Joanna Lumley. An
essential guide to tastier toast toppings featuring delicious
recipes sprinkled with anecdotes and facts on the history of toast
'Bread and water can so easily be tea and toast.' was famously
written on a tea towel and in the pages of Punch magazine in 1852
where a man cried 'No bread? Then bring me toast!' For Heidi Nathan
'it has become my guilt trip to just stick whatever is left in the
fridge on a slice of hot buttered toast. At the expense of my BMI,
this, shamefully, has become primarily how I eat.' But for her
toast is much more than a grilled slice of bread. In this book she
gives the ultimate guide to what you can put on toast. Joanna
Lumley explains her own favourite toppings which include Home-made
marmalade, quite sour, quite chunky. Marmite: and sometimes peanut
butter on top of the marmite, with watercress squashed onto the top
of that. Baked beans pronounced baked beings for no reason other
than to get an easy laugh. She is a great comedienne after all.
Toast also involves technology. The "modern" timed pop-up toaster
was created in 1919. Toasters got increasingly thinner and blended
into the late 20th century kitchen neatly, until the tide turned as
tides tend to do and bulky alloy mock art deco ones emerged.
A cookbook to suit the whole family's differing wants and needs,

and convenient timesavers, whilst scrumptious puds and simple bakes
help get smaller hands involved in the cooking. Covering everything
from gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free cooking and veganism, to
suggestions for flavour and spice adjustments for younger or
fussier palettes, this book will be a lifesaver in the kitchen and
a crowd-pleaser at the table. Over 75 recipes, each with flexible
options, covering: Breakfast and Brunch Soups and Broths Snacks and
