The Cook's Companion - Stephanie Alexander
A magnum opus at over 1000 pages, Nigella Lawson and Nigel Slater say this is one of the best cookbooks of all time and who are we to argue. Nigella says: ‘Stephanie Alexander is the author of one of my most prized and consulted cookbooks, the mighty Cook’s Companion, first published in 1996, and still as fresh and inspiring as the day it came out. If I could have only one cookbook for the rest of my life, it would, I think, have to be this one; I feel you could cook out of it for a lifetime and never get bored. If Stephanie Alexander had written not a word since, her achievement would be heady enough.’ These bloody semicolons. Wouldn’t a full stop have done the job Nigella; honestly.
Third Printing of the 2004 Penguin Edition. Hardback.
