    This is what makes this woman so extraordinary. Unlike any other woman of her stature, she possesses a historic intelligence and embraces her past, instead of pushing a cookware product line that nobody needs or wants.

    This was a lovely interview, so organic and unrehearsed. It reminds me of conversations you'd have at the kitchen table over cups of tea. I love listening to Nigella talk about food, so filled with love and comfort.

  • @user-lf1os3sh5c

    There have been times when I was skeptical of her recipes, but what makes me come back over and over is how she makes food seem so much more than just sustenance; it is such an integral thread in the fabric of our existence, and she captures the simple majesty with her eloquence. At My Table is perhaps my favourite of all her shows and books.

    Nigella, you are such an inspiration to me on a regular basis, you taught me most I know about food and balancing flavours, dozens of your recipes are now the part of my regular repertoire. But what I admire the most about you is how strong and resilient you have been in face of personal loss - your beloved sister, you mother, your dear husband John. If I could ever cook with you, or for you, it would be a dream come true!

    What I’ve always loved about Nigella’s work is the running thread of food as communication and sharing. Not just the sharing of recipes but of memories, histories, cultures and philosophies, the main philosophy being one of having permission to eat food that suits. I think she single handedly liberated a generation from the 80s starvation diet mentality.

    Nigella is a lovely, genuine woman, but look at a newspaper article about her and her mother (Vanessa Salmon) and you'll see that her childhood was not a happy one. Her mother's disapproval of her and eating disorder featured heavily.
    Sadly, judging by what I've read Nigella hasn't got over that.
    I'd love to meet her.
