Recipes, updates, and occasional musings, fresh from Nigella.com.

Nigella Lawson

At My Table / Discover exclusive recipes, and behind-the-scenes glimpses, from my new book. I'll be sharing some of my favourite recipes from At My Table so follow this board to make sure you don't miss any. The food in this book, that comes from my kitchen, is eaten at my table, and will be eaten at yours, is the food I have always loved cooking. It doesn't require technique, dexterity or expertise, none of which I lay claim to. Life is complicated; cooking doesn't have to be.

Chocolate Recipes

Chocolate Recipes / Everyone loves chocolate, and Nigella has a host of chocolate recipes to satisfy your chocolate cravings.

Kitchen Witter / Nigella's kitchen musings...

Salted Caramel Recipes

Salted Caramel Recipes / Ticking off the holy trinity of sugar, salt and fat – salted caramel is the class A drug of the confectionery world.

Summer Puddings and Desserts

Summer Puddings and Desserts / Summer, is an idea, a memory, a hopeful projection. Sometimes when it's grey outside and cold within, we need to conjure up the sun, some light, a lazy feeling of having all the wide-skied time in the world to sit back and eat warmly with friends. I am not talking about creating some overblown idyll of perpetual Provencal summer, but of extending that purring sense of sunny expansiveness.

Gluten-free cakes

Gluten-free cakes / I have been inspired by a new book in my life - America's Test Kitchen The How Can It Be Gluten Free Cookbook - to dabble in a bit of gluten-free baking. I get asked so often for gluten-free cooking tips and it gives me genuine pleasure to be able to help.

Pink-tastic / We're thinking pink!

Ice Cream Recipes

Ice Cream Recipes / Ice cream made easy! These ice creams are very simple, and absolutely delicious.

Easter Recipes / A time of year, that is perfect for cooking and baking up a storm, not forgetting all the chocolate to be eaten! From old favourites like Hot Cross Buns, to baking a lovely Easter Egg Nest Cake or Apple & Almond Cake for Passover.

Pancake Recipes

Pancake Recipes / You do not have to be a devout Christian to observe Pancake Day. I couldn't let the date pass without making a batch of crepes or pancakes: it would seem a sin against tradition, nature and greed, that other holy trinity.

Cookbook Corner

Cookbook Corner / With over 4,000 titles and rising, we thought we should share the wealth! So each week we will scour the shelves of the Lawsonian Library to bring you a book, old or new, and highlight one of its recipes.

Nigella's Food Pics

Nigella's Food Pics

Nigellissima / Italian food has colonised the world. Nigellissima shows us how and why in over 100 delicious dishes - from telephone-cord pasta with Sicilian pesto to the crustless Meatzza, from Sardinian couscous to Venetian stew, from penne to pappardelle, from ragu to risotto, from Italian apple pie and no-churn ices to panna cotta and sambuca kisses - in a round-Italy quickstep that culminates in a festive chapter of party food, with an Italian-inspired Christmas feast as its mouthwatering centrepiece.

Feast / "Food can never just be about the bald story of the recipe: the meals we eat say something fundamental about who we are and how we want to live. Whenever an occasion matters to us, we mark this with food, from a birthday cake to a wedding breakfast. But Feast is not just about big-deal special occasions: it’s about the way we use food to celebrate life."

Simply Nigella / "Part of the balance of life lies in understanding that different days require different ways of eating…"

Simply Nigella is the perfect antidote to our busy lives: a calm and glad celebration of food to soothe and uplift.

Valentine's Day with NYT Food

Valentine's Day with NYT Food / A collection of Valentine's Day recipes from Nigella Lawson and The New York Times Food. Follow for romantic dinner ideas, chocolate desserts and more.

Salad Recipes / Nigella's salad recipes

Nigella Express

Nigella Express / Nigella and her style of cookery have earned a special place in our lives, symbolising all that is best, most pleasurable, most hands-on and least fussy about good food. But that doesn’t mean she wants us to spend hours in the kitchen, slaving over a hot stove. Featuring fabulous fast foods, ingenious short cuts, terrific time-saving ideas, effortless entertaining and simple, scrumptious meals, Nigella Express is her solution to eating well when time is short.

Nigella Summer / "Summer food, even when eaten in deepest winter, contains within it the idea of simple cooking. But the best recipes are never blueprints, only ideas hungrily mooted. The ones in this book have come to me the way they always do, plundered from friends, from family, grown out of an idea of what might go with what."

How to Eat / "In writing this book, I wanted to make food and my slavering passion for it the starting point; indeed for me it was the starting point. I have nothing to declare but my greed."

Devil's Food Cake Cookalong

Devil's Food Cake Cookalong / WIN A SIGNED BOOK IN THE OCTOBER COOKALONG! Hallowe'en is looming and the devil is in the detail with this delicious cake! But, forget the name, this cake is heavenly. The crumb is tender, the filling and frosting luscious.

Once you've baked your chocolate delight; take a snap, upload your photo and comments, then you'll be in the running to win one of Nigella's books (your choice of course!) signed by Nigella.

Enjoy!

Valentine's Day Recipes

Valentine's Day Recipes / Wow your loved ones this Valentine's Day with these delicious recipes, guaranteed to win anyone's heart! From traditional mains, to decadent desserts, we have something for everyone.

Nigella Bites / "Even if themes, the focus of these chapters, are varied, what remains constant, and so what links them, is taste. I don’t mean taste in a food-snobbish, status sense (please, I am just not interested) but the tendency towards certain techniques (for me, that means easy ones) and certain ingredients."

Kitchen / “…this book is simply the story of my love affair with the kitchen. Whatever the opposite of the currently still fashionable genre, the misery memoir, might be, this is it: a comfort chronicle."

Baklava Cookalong

Baklava Cookalong / WIN A BOOK IN THE JULY COOKALONG!
This is a fantastic all-year-round treat: those of us in the Northern hemisphere can bring out the baklava to finish off any al fresco feast; those in the Southern hemisphere can let the rich, sweet pastry warm them up with a hot strong coffee any time of the day.

Feel free to play with the choice of nuts for the filling, and please report back!

Stationery / I have been delighted by the reaction to the new jacket designs for my books, and am equally delighted to tell you that my inspired designers at Ink Works have translated the artwork into wrapping paper and notebooks.

How to be a Domestic Goddess

How to be a Domestic Goddess / "This is a book about baking, but not a baking book – not in the sense of being a manual or a comprehensive guide or a map of a land you do not inhabit. I neither want to confine you to kitchen quarters nor even suggest that it might be desirable. But I do think that many of us have become alienated from the domestic sphere, and that it can actually make us feel better to claim back some of that space, make it comforting rather than frightening."

Strawberry Shortcakes Cookalong

Strawberry Shortcakes Cookalong / Win a cookbook signed by Nigella in the June Cookalong!

Nigella's Latin Loves

Nigella's Latin Loves / If I can't be in Italy, I need to bring Italy to my kitchen, and to my life: these are my must-have Italian ingredients or implements; others are part of that all-important Italianate inspiration.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake Cookalong

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake Cookalong / Each month we will put up a recipe on Nigella.com for everyone to try in their own homes, comparing their finished dishes and commenting on each others'.

We are kicking off with a little light snack in the form of our Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake. The winner will receive a signed copy of a Nigella book of their choice.

Vietnamese Chicken and Mint Salad Cookalong

Vietnamese Chicken and Mint Salad Cookalong / This month's Cookalong is a simple, summery dish that is absolutely addictive, our Vietnamese Chicken and Mint Salad.

Thanksgiving Recipes

Thanksgiving Recipes / Happy Thanksgiving! From reliable side dishes such as Creamy Potato Gratin to cranberry classics such as Redder Than Red Cranberry Sauce, and not forgetting celebratory puddings such as Pecan-Plus Pie and the legendary Girdlebuster Pie! And we've also got ideas for using up your leftover turkey - Turkey And Glass Noodle Salad, anyone?

Christmas Side Dishes

Christmas Side Dishes / The ultimate Christmas plate is usually one that is piled high with goodies - so much so that the actual turkey seems a mere afterthought. If that vision is more than a little intimidating then fear not because we have a range of simple, straightforward Christmas side dishes, salads and soups which will ensure that your Christmas meal is a feast and not a feat.

Christmas Recipes

Christmas Recipes / The sheer joy of Christmas, an excuse (if we ever needed one?) to eat, drink and be merry! The opportunity to be with friends and family and celebrate together. Sometimes though, cooking during the festive season can seem a bit overwhelming and we could all do with a bit of inspiration.

Christmas Dessert Recipes

Christmas Dessert Recipes / No Christmas meal would be complete without an indulgent Christmas dessert or two. These delicious desserts will turn any meal into a feast and have everyone contentedly confined to the sofa. Try the infamous Girdlebuster Pie or the divine Chestnut Chocolate Pots for now is not the time to think of calories. Relax, enjoy and overindulge!

Christmas Cake Recipes

Christmas Cake Recipes / To be honest, I don't always get it together to make a traditional Christmas cake (which needs a bit of time to stand and mellow to be as good as it can be) so I tend to rustle up either the Incredibly Easy Chocolate or Gorgeously Golden Fruit Cake (or both) at the last minute. But a traditionally iced and comfortingly decorative Christmas cake is a lovely thing, and if efficiency allows, should be embraced.
