Which Nigella book first?

[Astrid]

Ok, decided that I would really like to get some of the Nigella Lawson cookbooks and I really don't know which one or two to get first.

So if you have any, which ones do you have and what is your favourite?

I don't have it yet but I'm dying to get How to be a Domestic Goddess! I've heard it is great, mum tried to get it for me and coudn't find in anywhere - all sold out so that must be a good sign! Will be interested to see what others say too!

Hmm I'm in the same vote, would love to get some but unsure of which one!
The domestic goddess one sounds good Tanstar......hmm adding it to the search list now!

I own quite a suite of Nigella books and I have enjoyed reading them all. (I actually read them cover to cover like a novel!). Some are more useful than others in terms of recipes that I actually use. Firstly, How to Eat (her first) has the most useful information in it, but it's not a really "pretty" cookbook as there aren't lots of photos but it's the one I'd use most often (of Nigella's). How to Be a Domestic Godess is also a great one - lots of good recipes for cakes and nice photos. I also use her Summer book quite often. I got Feast about 6 months ago and also it's great reading, I've found some of the recipes are a bit too inaccessible - I'm not going to go out and buy pheasant or whole trout etc.

Anyway, that's my two cents worth!

Take care
