 Nigel Slater's Tender

Tender by Nigel Slater

What is Your Favorite Cookbook? 

My book is really new but once I started reading it I couldn't stop. Its not a classic yet but I bet it becomes one really quickly. The book is called Tender and it is written by a British writer called Nigel Slater.

What Do You Like Best About the Book? 

It is a book that firstly tells the story of the author creating a garden, then all the recipes are made from the garden produce. I have just started a small vegetable garden so I am really inspired by the pictures of what the results of a lot of hard work can achieve.

The recipes are so good, I want to cook them all. Mainly they are not too complicated so even a basic cook like me can make something.

Advice 

  • There are too many to choose from just yet, I have only had the book for a few weeks but I will come back and add some when I have made them.
