Tara Wigley is the author of the ingenious illustrated ‘cookbook without recipes’ How to Butter Toast and in-house writer for Team Ottolenghi. Over the last decade Tara Wigley has co-written nine major books, including million-selling Ottolenghi Simple, Ottolenghi Comfort and Falastin. In addition to these, she writes the weekly Ottolenghi Guardian column and the monthly column in the New York Times. She has a dedicated following on Instagram and writes about food in a way that is both informative and hugely entertaining. She was a judge on the 2022 Fortnum and Mason Food and Drink awards.
Praise for Tara Wigley’s How the Cookie Crumbles:‘You know those people who always make you smile? … Tara Wigley’s latest book, How The Cookie Crumbles, is the follow up to her similarly happy-making How to Butter Toast … I love it and fully expect to be gifting it all over the place when Christmas rolls around.’ Angela Clutton‘Some of the greatest kitchen conundrums – solved, clarified, demystified. As ever with Tara, this is informative and entertaining!’ Yotam Ottolenghi‘It’s often said that people remember rhymes best… armed with this book, you’ll always come out on top when arguing the toss between a cookie and a biscuit, pumpkin and a squash, a quiche or a tart. A must for every loo library.’ Ed SmithPraise for Tara Wigley’s How to Butter Toast:‘A total joy. Part Dr Seuss, part Ogden Nash, part Julia Child, 100% inspired and inspiring’ Samin Nosrat‘I can't think of many food authorities who can string together words which are as poignant and profound as they are entertaining and ear-pleasing.’ Yotam Ottolenghi‘It feels gently revolutionary … Wigley’s book has the makings of a modern classic. Smuggled within the sing-song is a trove of know-how … in other words: she’s got chops.’ The Wall Street Journal‘In just a couple of hours reading it, I feel l've learned more than from reading dozens of recipes. It's something to dip into and return to with delight. A lovely kitchen companion.’ Bee Wilson‘Fun and wise, Tara manages to capture the kinds of the things we cogitate about – sometimes without even knowing! – and provides reassuring answers to those confusing everyday conundrums. A collection for when you are weary of recipes and cooking, but not of life itself!’ Helen Goh‘Charming’ Nigella Lawson‘Gorgeous new book by the lovely Tara Wigley full of useful cooking tips and tricks for so many different everyday meals and very tastefully done in gentle rhyme form! Love the uniqueness of this gorgeous little guide, great for family cooking, too!’ Sabrina Ghayour
