A Cook's Book

Part memoir, part kitchen companion, *A Cook’s Book* is Nigel Slater’s heartfelt ode to a life spent cooking. With over 150 recipes—both plant-based and meat-inclusive—it’s a warm, deeply personal collection that celebrates the simple joy of good food.

From childhood jam tarts baked beside his mum to the first taste of a perfect Parisian baguette, Slater invites readers into the stories behind his most beloved dishes. His signature warmth and lyricism shine through as he shares lessons learned over the years—from mastering whipped cream to perfecting a roast chicken.

With comforting soups like pumpkin laksa and red lentil, to everyday favorites that are as gratifying to make as they are to eat, this is more than a cookbook—it’s a life told through flavor.
