Nigella’s kitchen wisdom

Mimic Nigella’s kitchen wizardry with these simple tips:

• Bring fridge-cold eggs to room temperature by soaking them in warm water for 10 mins
• Sea salt is less salty than table salt so if you’re replacing sea salt with table salt, use half the amount
• After roasting meat in the oven, let it rest for at least 15 mins. The meat will be juicier and easier to carve
