Niki Segnit’s first book, The Flavour Thesaurus, won the André Simon Award for best food book, the Guild of Food Writers Award for best first book, and was shortlisted for the Galaxy National Book Awards. It has been translated into thirteen languages. On BBC Radio 4, she has contributed to The Food Programme, Woman’s Hour and Word of Mouth, and her columns, features and reviews have appeared in the Guardian, the Observer, The Times, The Times Literary Supplement, The Sunday Times and Prospect magazine. She lives in London with her husband and two children.It is hard to convey just what a staggering achievement <i>Lateral</i> <i>Cooking</i> is. <b>Segnit is truly a one-woman Larousse.</b> Only the scope is so much wider and deeper: this book covers continents! … I can lose myself in it any time, from any page, and <b>you could cook from it over a whole lifetime, and still be learning</b>
