Like nearly every human being on the planet, British cooking icon Nigella Lawson spent the larger part of 2020 in lockdown during the Covid-19 pandemic. But unlike everyone else on the planet, those months in lockdown resulted in a critically-acclaimed cookbook, titled Cook, Eat, Repeat.

Lawson initially began writing the cookbook before the onset of the pandemic, but ended up finishing it during the months of lockdown in Britain last year, an experience that coloured how she tackled the book, and consequently gave it a far more insightful, personal sheen.
