About this deal

The story of my cooking life, from the first tray of jam tarts I made with my mother when I was nine, to the food I cook now, in my kitchen at home. Chapters include: a slice of tart, a chicken in the pot, everyday greens, the solace of soup and the ritual of tea. I like to hear the voice of the cook who tempted me to follow their recipe, to feel they are beside me in the kitchen as I cook, a guide and a friend.

For more details, please consult the latest information provided by Royal Mail's International Incident Bulletin. We are experiencing delays with deliveries to many countries, but in most cases local services have now resumed. It is accepted by you that Daunt Books has no control over additional charges in relation to customs clearance. Each one a letter to a friend, a story of something I have made for dinner, the tale of how it came to be on my table. Mrs Woolf, wife of the manager, is a very celebrated author and, in her own way, more important than Galsworthy.

The Hogarth Press where I’m working, is in the heart of the literary world, with authors coming in all the time. There are chapters on vegetarian suppers and meat-feasts; cakes for everyday and special occasions; bread, everyday suppers and the ritual of tea.

From the first jam tart he made with his mum standing on a chair trying to reach the Aga, through to what he’s cooking today, A Cook’s Book is the ultimate Nigel Slater collection.Slightly Foxed brings back forgotten voices through its Slightly Foxed and Plain Foxed Editions, a series of beautifully produced little pocket hardback reissues of classic memoirs, all of them absorbing and highly individual. A longtime food columnist in the UK and the author of fifteen previous books, he cooks food which is sometimes unmistakably British—Cumberland sausage with cheddar roasted-potato mash; smoked haddock and mussel pie—and a page or two later he’s suggesting food which is resolutely, nimbly not of any single tradition: broccoli with pumpkin seeds and bread crumbs; ground lamb with lime and cilantro. These are the favourite recipes Nigel Slater cooks at home every day; the heart and soul of his cooking. Ebooks fulfilled through Glose cannot be printed, downloaded as PDF, or read in other digital readers (like Kindle or Nook).

Watching the progress of dinner as you stir onions in a pan, at first crisp, white and pungent – you may have shed a tear - then slowly becoming translucent gold, darkening to bronze, all the time becoming softer, sweeter. But I also enjoy those that are more than just cold instructions, those that are more than simply ‘do this, do that. Cooking - for me at least – is about making yourself something to eat and sharing food with others but is also – whisper it - about the quiet moments of joy to be had along the way. Receiving no public funding, the RA depends on the continuing generosity of our supporters and Friends.Sharing food with those at your table - passing round a bowl of late autumn raspberries or a slice of sugar-encrusted blackberry and apple pie – is heart-warming enough, but a recipe posted in a newspaper, ephemerally on social media or in more lasting form in the pages of a book, has the chance to be shared even more widely. p>
