Finally, someone with a healthy perspective on what is truly healthy food and how humans eat! I've always loved Nigella for her wit and common sense on eating. Thank you so much for posting this!
My Grand parents came from the North of Italy and I feel like you, my Grandmother taught me everything I know and I had felt so fortunate to have someone as special as her in my life and you just reinforce my feelings. Thank you. 😊
I love Nigellas honesty and perspective. I am a pretty good cook but i used to own and run a restaurant and employed a professional chef (well several actually) and there is a world of difference cooking for a few friends and turning out 150 top quality top class meals day in day out at speed.
Nigella is so Beautiful Elegant and Classy I could listen to her for hours I love her recipes they're very easy to make even a guy like me can make them and they taste great.
what she said about living abroad and speaking another language is sooo soo true. I haven't really heard anyone talk about that (with those details) before
30:49 The boldness of Nigella stating this is why I love her. Most Brits don't like facing the fact that empires are built on slavery and exploitation of others.
I compleately disagree. Any Brits who are old enough to know there used to be a British Empire are fully aware of all the history with slavery, India and China, etc, because of the endless amount of detailed historical TV documentaries and dramas that's been made going back to the 50's. Every week there's around 5 to 10 new historical TV programs usually covering something about the days of Empire. There's no way you can grow up in the UK and shy away from it's history as it's fully exposed and ingrained in our culture. The fact is though, that British people back home in the UK had no idea what was happening overseas. They didn't know Africans were being kidnapped and enslaved for greedy profiteers, but when they eventually did find out, there was mass public outrage and protests which brought about the abolition of slavery, 60 years before the US abolished it. So the bad parts of the Empire had nothing to do with the people of Britain. Besides, the Empire didn't make Britain rich. Sure those profiteers built some big houses with the money they pocketed and the Royals got some fancy trinkets, but the Empire could Bearley afford to pay for itself. What made Britain rich and succesful was the industrial revolution. Steam power, electrical power, machines.
Most countries are built on slavery and exploiting others. Italy, Turkey and America for example. Brits are well aware of their own history. They particularly exploited their own working-class people.
You never see celebrity chefs openly criticizing the hospitality industry and its crappy wages. If jamie oliver can go lose an entire franchise and still walk away 20M pounds richer, then high end restauranteurs can pay their staff more. Running a restaurant is tough on everyone but if a restaurant owner is clever enough, they can make it work the right way without insulting their employees
My cousin who was diagnosed with a terminal brain cancer, was told by her doctor to avoid a glass of wine at dinner, but coca-cola is fine. I won't say more.
What i love about Nigella is, i love to hear her talk & how she describes everything.....like it almost makes me feel smarter & maybe expands my vocabulary. Hahaha! (i didn't realize she had been a journalist). She certainly has a grasp on language. it's so refreshing, the things she says. AND, even tho she is not a chef, (Rachel Ray isn't either) Nigella certainly has had alot of experience with food & how it 'behaves'; she knows food.....& she cooks what she likes! she has a sensitivity about flavors, textures, what tastes good together & how to create it all & presentation, & how to present it to her friends, all relaxed*! Haha! so she may even have some knowledge that some chefs don't have! OH, she's got skills, alright! i love watching her videos on TH-cam.....& she's so pretty & real......she's 1 of a kind! I see she likes asian dishes, middle eastern dishes, (i will include Italian dishes in that category) & comfort foods from her past & things she has easily created; only things that SHE thinks are very good!
Ya know I feel cheated because I am not a foodie. I have a very unsophisticated palette and wish that I could enjoy food like everyone else. I hate fish so much. Shrimp especially. I don’t even like the smell of it. I’m happy for people who enjoy fish.
But in our whole evolution we've never eaten consumed meat on an industrial scale.Our hunter and gatherer ancestors were not eating huge slabs of meat with every meal. That's the problem.
I’m a 30 year veggie/vegan Nd I’ve never been deficient in anything. Also we’re not designed to eat meat. Our stomach acid isn’t strong enough. I think white meat is ok but defo not red.
I could listen to Nigella for ever. Thank you.
Me too I love her
Me too!!!!
There is something very soothing and zen about this woman
We all hang onto the truths that serve our desires....So well said.

I also appreciate her views on how waitstaff are treated and paid in some places, men and women.
My Grand parents came from the North of Italy and I feel like you, my Grandmother taught me everything I know and I had felt so fortunate to have someone as special as her in my life and you just reinforce my feelings. Thank you. 😊
She is so beautiful and beyond intelligent, sharp and spot on!
Loved the last question, and of course the beautiful answer
what a wonderful interview - great questions and thank you for letting her answer - Nigella is a miracle. :)
I love her way of cooking and talking about food.

Indeed.

I think that Nigella Lawson should be on UK TV instead of all the male chefs that we pay our TV License's for 🤔
Another rude & small minded interviewer. Gosh Nigella stays classy. Brilliant woman. Magical spirit💫
Why do you say that? The The small mindedness bit
love you Nigella, the all of you with flaws and all

LOL...!
Was he sponsored by coca cola?
Goddess.
She's like the British Monica Belucci
She's 60? She looks 32. Wow!!!
Don't thinks she looks like that you g
She’s had some very good work done unlike a lot of celebrities.
She avoids sun. She never exposes her skin to sun and also her plastic surgeon is a genius.
Shes Very English and Quite exuberant

Nigellas comments on 'airplane mode' are 💯 factual.
Get to know your airplane mode button.
It's magical! 🙏💕
ooo i love Nigella!!!

Nigella 'You Know' Lawson
Good interview. You just need to get out of the way and let her talk.
The little girl is adorable.
The sound is really bad on this. Nigella can be heard but not the questions from the audience.
Huh? Every questioner was perfectly audible.
But in our whole evolution we've never eaten consumed meat on an industrial scale.Our hunter and gatherer ancestors were not eating huge slabs of meat with every meal. That's the problem.
Shut up, hippie.
Did she really ask her about “me too”? WTF, stick to the subject: food!
Exactly! I thought the same thing
I’m a 30 year veggie/vegan Nd I’ve never been deficient in anything. Also we’re not designed to eat meat. Our stomach acid isn’t strong enough. I think white meat is ok but defo not red.
👍
Lady…. Nigella is not a feminist so get over yourself!
Funny that she used to be a coke addict during the filming of her shows. Lol
She looks younger than plastic Madge😅
number1!Cat
Nigella really didn't seem prepared for this interview...lots of stammering & studering... swing & a miss.
perhaps she did breast reduction surgery
She is so so beautiful
