A Cook's Book

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'A Cook's Book, all 500 pages and nearly one and a half kilos of it, enters the world as if from the kitchen of someone fresh to the world of food writing, a-brim with ideas, vital and enthusiastic . . . He is king among food writers . . . There is not a cook or a reader in the land who wouldn't gratefully hug this new volume of his to their chest' Nigella Lawson


'A magnificent volume of comfort. After all these years, no one describes the simple sensuous pleasures of food better than Slater' Bee Wilson


'This is a book for life . . . This, and it's high praise, is Slater's best book' Diana Henry, Sunday Telegraph


'It's so good. I think it's his best one, and I say that because every single recipe is something you'd make tonight, for supper, with no fuss or stress . . . It's super-homey and a friendly, comfortable book for people who don't view recipes as projects. Divinely written, as per' India Knight, Sunday Times


'I've got five Nigel Slaters - and in all honesty I don't need a single new recipe in my life . . . But that's absolutely nothing to do with it. Cookery books are like new clothes - you imagine a whole life to go with them' Alexandra Schulman, Daily Mail


'It is beautiful' Grace Dent


'This beautiful book has all you'll ever need' Graham Norton, Virgin Radio


'Every time Nigel Slater announces a new book, I quickly make a spot next to all his other books that sit on my bookshelf. His latest book, A Cook's Book is like your favourite chocolate cake, sweetened with fond memories and layered with Nigel's wisdom to make us all better cooks in the kitchen' Nik Sharma


'It's gorgeous' Felicity Spector


'It's beautifully designed, spilling over with tempting ideas' Express Books of the Year
