Reviews
"But the crowning glory of "Tender" is Mr. Slater's own prose, even when treating of something as lowly as the autumnal cabbage-each dark-green leaf of which "somehow seems as if it will fend off our winter ills. Elephant ears of crinkled green, sparkling with dew; black plumes of cavolo nero like feathers on a funeral horse, and the dense, ice crisp flesh of red cabbage. Strong flavors indeed." Strong, yes, but also tenderly enticing, as guests at Mr. Slater's latest literary feast will discover." -The Wall Street Journal, Bookshelf, 4/23/11 "The best Brit you've never heard of. . . . Nigel Slater is who you'd get if you combined Alice Waters with Mark Bittman: a garden-to-table advocate whose goal in life is to make people love fresh produce and cooking because they are gasp fabulous and fun and do not have to be fussy in the slightest. -The Christian Science Monitor, 4/19/11 "Nigel Slater's Tender is a rich tale of one man's passion for cultivating, cooking, and eating from the garden. His sensuous and delicious recipes make us want to run right into the kitchen and start cooking. But even if you never set a foot in your garden or turn on the stove, it is a great, inspiring read." -Christopher Hirsheimer and Melissa Hamilton, authors of Canal House Cooking "As a second-floor city-dweller with no patch of land to call my own, a glimpse into Nigel Slater's garden sanctuary makes me ache for a small plot of good dirt, preferably just off a kitchen, to grow some of what I eat. Nigel captures the small moments-the rituals, sights, and smells-that are part of the cycle of growing, cooking, eating, and sharing, culminating in a collection of vibrant, bold yet approachable recipes. A rare treasure." -Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Cooking "A home garden isn't just the best source of the ultimately fresh. It's also the place where scent, smell, and touch vie with taste to inspire and shape our culinary imagination. Nigel Slater, a food writer too little known in this country, has a unique ability to convey this magical play of the senses, and what happens when we let it permeate our cooking. The imaginative, often inspired dishes that result are a revelation. Tender deserves pride of place on any vegetable lover's shelf." -John Thorne, author of Outlaw Cook "Nigel Slater is my kind of cook. His gently passionate garden-to-kitchen approach shows respect for the beauty of simple ingredients. He celebrates the sweetness of a roasted onion, the thrill of a ripe berry, and the real pleasure of a good salad." -David Tanis, author of Heart of the Artichoke, " Tender is pleasing in so many ways. For cooks it's filled with glorious vegetable-centric recipes, for gardeners it's an insightful and personal story about just how much a garden can mean, and for those who just enjoy reading about food, well, you're going to love getting acquainted with Nigel Slater." -Serious Eats, Cook the Book, 5/23/11 "But the crowning glory of "Tender" is Mr. Slater's own prose, even when treating of something as lowly as the autumnal cabbage-each dark-green leaf of which "somehow seems as if it will fend off our winter ills.
