My beloved Soupy Rice with Celeriac and Chestnuts is #RecipeOfTheDay. Don’t belabour the beige: this is full of comforting flavour! To quote my intro, there is just something quiet and lovely about it that seems to still the air around you as you eat. www.nigella.com/recipes/soup...
Soupy Rice with Celeriac and Chestnuts
I think of this rather as an autumnal or wintry version of risi e bisi, Venice’s celebration of spring in the form of a pea risotto that is just this side of a soup. It has a certain elegant calm abou...

While I do know that Blue Monday was invented by marketing people in the travel business in order to sell summer holidays, I’m prepared to go along with it for the purposes of #RecipeOfTheDay – which is, cheeringly, Sunshine Soup! www.nigella.com/recipes/suns...
Sunshine Soup
There was a British singing outfit in the Seventies called Instant Sunshine and this is it in soup form. The silkiness comes from the peppers which are quickly blitzed in a hot oven, then blended with...

Midweek Treat: #RecipeOfTheDay is Sticky Toffee Pudding, the dark empress of desserts! I can’t even write its name, let alone gaze at this photograph, without wanting to eat it, frankly. www.nigella.com/recipes/stic...
Sticky Toffee Pudding
There is very little that can compare with the glory of a sticky toffee pudding. My STP is altogether deeper and darker than the original version: it is still sweet, but the muscovado sugar and black ...

#RecipeOfTheDay comes from The Royal Marsden Cancer Cookbook. I was asked to contribute, and it was an honour to do so in support of this great hospital. Obviously, I make no curative claims for my soup, but I can promise it provides comfort and tastes delicious www.nigella.com/recipes/caul...
Cauliflower, Garlic and Turmeric Soup
Packed full of vegetables and phytonutrients, it is undeniably true that this soup is both soothing and bolstering as well as easy and gratifying to eat. Baking the garlic gives a lot of depth while t...

As a longtime listener to the BBC World Service I couldn’t agree more.

The maelstrom of news this past week alone has been a timely reminder of its incredible depth and range of journalistic excellence.

The World Service really is a rare gem in broadcasting, double or triple the spending on it! 🎙️
BBC's Tim Davie to the Public Accounts Ctte this week on the World Service:
"I think the UK should be spending double the amount on this service. Look what China and Russia are doing. It is absolutely paramount we invest in a unique, precious strategic asset."
... But domestic services come first.

Parmesan shortbreads are the perfect accompaniment to any festive fizz you may be uncorking to celebrate the New Year. They’re #RecipeOfTheDay now in case you want a get a head start on them, but they’re neither difficult nor time-consuming to make. www.nigella.com/recipes/parm...

This is an Italian-inspired recipe that comes to me from Australia via Brazil. To explain: a Brazilian friend, and the best cook I know, Helio Fenerich made it for me, and I had to keep (rudely) askin...
