How to be French: A guide to eating

Hi!

I'm Ally and welcome to my food blog, Nigella Eats Everything! I’m a chef and food writer from the UK and have recently moved to France. I can usually be found making a mess of a kitchen somewhere, or eating something, usually with jam involved. I love to cook and eat and write. I hope you enjoy my stories from the kitchen!

January is tough so marinate a steak in citrus juices and coriander and garlic, fire up a skillet and cook until nicely charred. Serve over nachos with all the tinsel - guacamole, salsa, pico de gallo, lots of melted cheese, and some pickled shallots and jalapenos. Pretend you're on a sunny holiday not stuck in 0°C huddled under a blanket as you work. Perfect to share or to keep entirely for yourself. No one's judging.

I will now always recommend making a chocolate cake on a Sunday afternoon to snack on throughout Monday, it really eases those Monday blues. And I can't even take credit for this idea. @gaylordszt chocolate cake, which is basically soft melt-in-the-mouth chocolate mousse, only improves with time, getting stickier and more tender and it's covered in a thick blanket of chocolate ganache which also really really helps.

When the fridge is empty and the radiator is broken it's a takeaway, fluffy slippers and contemplating moving house kind of night and meanwhile I'm lusting after this jam sponge and custard I made after crimbo.

Pre-Christmas caramelised white chocolate and fig biscotti and a window sill and a plant. Best lighting is by the plant.

Beetroot, bulgur, chilli and nigella seed rolls, all scruffy and lopsided in crispy pastry, really easy eating for lazy whichever days they are after Christmas 🥴

Another day, another bowl of porridge and this one is Christmas themed! Stewed plums, honey, crunchy flaked almonds and a spontaneous spoonful of homemade mincemeat, gently warmed in the microwave. Turns out it will be a daily addition I think! Even after xmas probably.
