Beating even J. K. Rowling for Author of the Year 2000 (The British Book Awards), Nigella Lawson has become a household name in the UK, selling almost a quarter of a million copies of her first award-winning book, How to Eat, and over 150,000 copies of her new book" How to be a Domestic Goddess in the first two months. The feel-good cookbook for our stressed-out lives, How to be a Domestic Goddess is not about being a goddess, but about feeling like one. What this deliciously reassuring and mouthwatering cookbook demonstrates is that it's not actually hard to bake a tray of muffins or an upside-down cake, or to create everything from brownies to bagels, peach cream pie to pizza, rhubarb schnapps to paradise chutney -- but that the satisfaction they bring are disproportionately high. Here is a book that understands our anxieties and feeds our fantasies, and makes the art of comfort cooking simple and alluring for the modern cook.
