Book Review: Quiet Kitchen

Quiet Kitchen

by Nici Wickes

Review by Bel

One of my favourite cookbooks! It’s intimate, peaceful and so comforting – full of wisdom and solace. Nici is real and generous, and her recipes are varied, simple and delicious. These recipes are designed for one, but can easily be modified for more. Although I don’t live alone (or perhaps because I don’t live alone…) her thoughts on solitude, acceptance, selfcare and finding joy resonated with me deeply. This is a book I turn to myself, and one I have given to friends and family – particularly those who find themselves suddenly cooking for one. Fans of Matt Haig and Susan Cain will particularly enjoy this one!

And now she has a second glorious book that follows on from the first: More from A Quiet Kitchen.
