This is the story of how we have tamed fire and ice, wielded whisks, spoons, graters, mashers, pestles and mortars, all in the name of feeding ourselves. Bee Wilson takes us on an enchanting culinary journey through the incredible creations, inventions and obsessions that have shaped how and what we cook. From huge Tudor open fires to sous-vide machines, the birth of the fork to Roman gadgets, Consider the Fork is the previously unsung history of our kitchens. 'In considering the fork, she forces us to reconsider ourselves.' Sunday Times 'A delight.' Independent on Sunday, Books of the Year 'Delightful, charming . . . infused with a sense that every omelette, cup of coffee, meringue or tea cake is steeped in tradition and ancient knowledge, and that that is partly what makes cooking one of life's joys.' Spectator 'A pure joy to read . . . like having a long dinner table discussion with a fascinating friend.' Los Angeles Times 'Wonderful, witty, utterly absorbing.' Guardian, Books of the Year 'I love Bee Wilson's writing.' Nigella Lawson 'A joy to read.' Glaudia Roden
