In the book Niki explores 12 basic culinary categories: Bread Cornbread, Polenta & Gnocchi Batter Roux Stock, Soup & Stew Pastry Nuts Cake & Biscuits Chocolate Sugar Custard and finally Sauce. Testing hundreds of flavour pairings required Segnit to strip recipes down to their basic formulae. ![]() Ten years in the making Lateral Cooking, grew out of experiments with flavour combinations that went into her bestselling debut. Lateral Cooking is set to do the same, a companion to her debut, focussing on method rather than flavour. Niki Segnit is author of the best-selling Flavour Thesaurus, a book that had an enormous impact on the way that many of us cook today, freeing us up to make our own decisions about pairing different flavours in our cooking. Tickets in advance, £42 per person (not including wine). We'll be serving a five course menu, based on recipes from Niki's new book and Niki will be here to talk about her cookery writing and latest tome. We've hugely excited to be hosting a Sunday lunch with the award-winning cookery writer Niki Segnit to celebrate her new book Lateral Cooking on 30th September from 12 noon. ![]()
