Bad Cook

About this book

The ebook inspired by the hugely popular Recipe Rifle blog.

One of the funniest cookbooks you are ever likely to read. And definitely the sweariest.

For over three years now, Esther Walker has been entertaining foodies with her hilarious Recipe Rifle blog. Charting her progress from bad cook to, well, not-so-bad cook, she is blisteringly honest about what works, and what doesn't, in the kitchen. If a recipe works for her, it will probably work for you. If it doesn't, she will swear quite a lot.

Crammed full of recipes, tips for entertaining, stories of pregnancy and tales of her husband (restaurant critic Giles Coren) coming home drunk, The Bad Cook will make you laugh out loud. It will also make you want to start cooking.
