Whenever i see this video i miss John although I wasn't even born when he died...but later watching her shows i learned about him...he was a great loving husband, father and a person❤️❤️....Her Recent husband is a Monster
I live in Memphis, Tennessee and I would always watch it because our daughters and sons are the same age. I watch her to this day and always felt like we raised our kids together. Every recipe I have made of her’s has been well received from my family. God Bless, Nigella Lawson. John Diamond was one incredible journalist and father, may he rest in peace. ♥️
15:47 It's so bittersweet seeing scenes like this of such a happy family, knowing that John (Nigella's first husband) died from throat cancer not too long after filming these episodes of Nigella Bites in 2002.
I agree. Awful. Then she had so much trouble with her second husband too. I truly hope that she is happy with her life now, she deserves to be. I adore Nigella.
Yum yum yum, indeed! Nigella where have you been all of my life? How am I just now discovering you? I am an American with heavy British ancestry (great grandparents) who has always resonated the UK in my bones. You are a breath of fresh air in the kitchen and a decompression to my hectic day. I pray that life finds you well if you are reading this. Thank you for being you.
To everyone freaking out about her hand hygiene - it's a tv show. If they filmed her every time she washed her hands you wouldn't have time for the recipes. Of course she washes her hands. All you have to worry about is the safety in your own kitchen, not hers. x
AMEN!! Like someone stated below - there hasn't been a case of salmonella in the UK since the 80s. Also - if raw/undercooked eggs scare you - don't eat cookie dough, Caesar salad or Eggs Benedict.
She’s really go-with-the-flow isn’t she? hahaha the most untidy baker I’ve ever seen. That thick layer of cream and passion fruits, almost extravagant! 🤣
I'm addicted to that roast chicken and pasta dish from Venice I did mine with spaghetti and now I'd rather have that than a roast dinner I promise its addictive try it you will be hooked lol xxx
A nice Dessert: Slice plump chilled Strawberries. Put back in the fridge to chill. In a sauce pan, add a heaping tablespoon of butter. To that, add a heaping tablespoon of rich, dark brown sugar and two ounce of Kahlua. let the emulation of butter sugar and Kahlua caramelize. Place your thick slices of strawberries on your plate, pour over the caramelized sauce. Next, dab on a tablespoon of (Sour) Cream, not whipped cream. Then drizzle with chocolate sauce. To end it off, crackle over black pepper over everything, the sweet, sour and pepper is a taste explosion in your mouth.
😋🍝🍲🍛🥗🥪🍚🍮🍋I always enjoyed her cooking and these series from 2002 are nostalgic for me when it was a special mood to stay indoors when it rained and watch the endearing series.
I love Nigella; however, I honestly am at a loss because these episodes don't remind of when I first saw her. Not sure what I'm missing, but I do love her.
I don't know about what others think, but watching her cooking is different than watching others cooking. Its not like I am going to cook anything. But it's not like I feel like I am bad cook in my home kitchen. If anyone have tried cooking, it's impossible to be super clean unless you are super neat. Lemon juice do get in your hand, unless you are super neat and tidy and affording a mess free lemon juice device. And, it's not like world is ending if little cream or little sauce is left in, one always like to lick it from pot. Not Everytime you wash your hands, kitchen towels are there for some reasons. I mean, if you have tried cooking for many (even 4) all meals, in less time in kitchen, with many varieties to cook, you all will know it's tough. Plus she is filming, what you all want. One cameraman to just show her washing hands? Grow up people. All those saying about hygeine, have a chair in there home fill with dirty clothes or eating foods from outside, or having dirty dishes. Unless you are super neat mad mad person, which not all can be. Like I am very neat freak but my mom is not, in kitchen. But I am still less neat freak than some other person in world. So no one is like you. Not all world revolves on just few ideas of cleaning. Take care of yourself, and let others do whatever they want for there family. You are not eating her food. If you like follow her recipe, and leave. Do modification according to your taste.

trinigyul When I was growing up we weren’t obsessed about washing hands and trying to kill germs all the time. Funny thing I was never sick! Love you Nigella 💜
@@mariemills1936 When did you grow up during the mesozoic era? It aint have nothing to do with "obsessing" as you put it. Its basic cleanliness, if the cross contamination dont bother ya'll (which I cant see how) raws eggs are sticky af why would you wanna get everything sticky and funky? Btw I love you too Nigella, even tho I can disagree with sumn you do/did.
It seems unlikely to me that that chicken and pasta dish is from Venice. Italians (for some odd reason-they’ve explained why but never very well, to be honest) never mix pasta and chicken. Also, Venetian food is almost always seafood-based. If there’s a Venetian out there that can confirm or rebut this, I’d welcome their input.
I really don’t mean to be unkind but did ever get bilious attacks as a child? I used to get them all the time which I hated when I was home. But atborning
Sameena, it's rare but it's safe, if that's what you're worried about. Any bacteria are on the outside, so a good sear on all surfaces will kill all the bacteria. Minced beef needs to be cooked thoroughly, because mincing distributes the bacteria throughout the beef, but a single piece of beef is fine.
Ever tried a rare steak? Red meat is more delicious when it’s barely cooked..... but if we are going to get technical, the meat in this video was medium/medium rare. Anyone who cooks their steak well done is a fool and should be banned from the kitchen. The only time a steak being cooked well done is acceptable is when it’s for kids...
I feel like she is very scattered and frantic in this particular video compared to others I have watched. It’s kind of putting me on edge so I’m going to look for a different video.
She throws away the two egg whites at 1:05 (ı know it because she puts them to the same container as the shells so it's obvious) and then she says that she is never wasteful and cant even throw an egg white away at 16:33.

Yes. I have a compromised immune system and went into septic shock due to eColi. In addition, prior to being immune-suppressed, I got salmonella poison from egg drop soup. Some people obviously do fine but it does bother me to see some of this 😬

She’s such a lovely person. The things she says are so intelligent but also soulful. I know I’m not the only person who wishes she was my friend.
I have Nigella on in the background when I´m working. It´s relaxing and makes me more creative. One of these days
I´ll even try one of her recipes..
I love Nigella
Me too
I do the same
Do it! All of the recipes I've tried from hers were knock you out your socks good.
Whenever i see this video i miss John although I wasn't even born when he died...but later watching her shows i learned about him...he was a great loving husband, father and a person❤️❤️....Her Recent husband is a Monster
Yeah he turned out to be a pos. So glad she divorced him
I love Nigella’s rough cooking techniques in her early episodes. She throws food, bangs bowls, licks her fingers. She cooks like a real working mom.
Me too! That's what I love best about her show.
Nigella blesses the English language by speaking it
"Where's the salmon?" Looks like the children have helped with salmon patties, too! Wonderful.

@@mariagarner1658 I think she is! Plus she currently continues showing us her recipes on a new show called "Cook, Eat, Repeat" on BBC
Exactly... Knowing what her 2nd husband did to her afterwards just makes the moment even sadder.
John was the one who encouraged Nigella to do the cooking show when she had her reservations.. RIP John Diamond.
The ending made me smile. I wonder where he learned that from, sneaking downstairs in the middle of the night to eat cake... ...
Haha her mother ofcourse

Precisely because it is a show, which is edited, etc., hygiene should not be negotiable.
It is a stylistic thing, a thing the character does. About appearing the opposite of “stuffy”
Also she's cooking for herself so even if she doesn't wash her hands, if she doesn't care why should anyone else?
She’s really go-with-the-flow isn’t she? hahaha the most untidy baker I’ve ever seen. That thick layer of cream and passion fruits, almost extravagant! 🤣
Knowing that even Nigella gets crappy fruit sometimes makes me feel better about myself.
She is such a cool mom
