The other day I received Nigella Lawson's brand new cookbook. So brand new its the advance uncorrected proofs. I'm not allowed to quote it. LMAO. However...I can make something out of it. I think of recipes as a loose suggestion on which to go crazy. The rice crispie part is Nigella's but the rest of it is all me. I slathered on a toasted coconut, hazelnut, dulce de leche mixture on top and then drizzled white chocolate on top. For the sake of drama I sprinkled on some chocolate covered cocoa nibs. It has a lot going on but its not overwhelming. What I can tell you about the cookbook is that it is truly wonderful. I think Nigella makes her cookbooks very blog like. There is a story for every recipe. I really connected with this on a personal level. I always thought Nigella was a bit stuck up...but she's real....and her passion is very well placed. I want to thank Hyperion for allowing me to preview this magnificent cookbook even if the pictures are black and white. It was truly enjoyable. So no recipe...not until its out in stores anyway. So look out for it....Nigella Kitchen: Recipes from the Heart of the Home.
