Book is the story of Nigel Slater's life in the kitchen. From the
first jam tart Nigel made with his mum standing on a chair trying
to reach the Aga, through to what he is cooking now, this is the
ultimate Nigel Slater collection brimming with over 200 recipes. He
writes about how his cooking has changed from discovering the best
way to roast a chicken to the trick to smoky, smooth aubergine
mash. He gives the tales behind the recipes and recalls the first
time he ate a baguette in Paris, his love of jewel-bright Japanese
pickled radishes and his initial slice of buttercream-topped
chocolate cake. These are the favourite recipes Nigel Slater cooks
at home every day; the heart and soul of his cooking. Chapters
include: a slice of tart, a chicken in the pot, everyday greens,

Travel across Italy’s regions through food and discover the best of its
produce and dishes.
For centuries, Italy has cultivated some of the world’s finest produce,
from plump tomatoes to nutty parmesan and velvety bottles of wine. It’s
a country that revolves around mealtimes, and no visit is complete
without experiencing these culinary traditions.
Mangia guides us through Italy’s 20 regions, sharing the cuisine that
defines each. Learn about their food histories and produce, discover
what dishes to try (along with what drinks to pair them with), learn
about culinary festivals and experiences, and cook your way through an
iconic recipe from each region.
You don’t have to travel to the boot to try its food, though: Every
chapter includes a recipe for readers to experience a bite of Italy in
their own kitchens, written by chefs who run some of the world’s best
kitchens. In Italy, it’s all about la dolce vita, and there’s nothing
that captures that better than a table full of food.
