Product Information

Coco is Anna s 11-year-old granddaughter and her tireless helper in the kitchen. From a very early age, Coco showed an interest in food and cooking Anna would sit her down with a spoon and a piece of bread or a clove of garlic, and Coco would watch and imitate. Anna taught her to smell and taste food, and soon enough Coco was able to start really helping, progressing from decorating cakes to making pasta to conjuring up her favourite tagines. Taking us from the simple dishes of the early stages, through to more complex cooking for older children by way of meatballs, Coco s first biscuits, lamb with couscous and sweet ricotta pancakes and illustrated with beautiful photographs, Anna brings us the best of all the recipes they have cooked together. She emphasises the importance of passing on basic skills, knowledge about seasonal cooking and the ability to find the best ingredients. But Cooking with Coco is also a record of memories and time spent between Anna and Coco, and an inspirational reminder of how exciting food can be for children and how much pleasure families can have together in the kitchen.

  • Pointless!

    I made a bad mistake as a result of watching a Nigella Lawson TV programme featuring Anna Del Conte. De Conte is held in legendary terms by the Lawson woman. The book is dreadful and a waste of money buying, and a waste of time reading.

  • this brings back so many childhood memories. ONE RECIPE STEP BY STEP = ONE GIANT LEAP FOR LONGTERM WELLNESS.

    Anna Del Conte reminds me of my Italian Grand -Mother who had chickens rabbits and a diverse vegetable plot. So as i v,e been saying for years to friends "this is how to make an authentic N.Italian risotto or a minestrone, or a Lasagne from 00 flour and a pasta making rolling machine etc etc. just like my Grand - Ma,s lifelong lessons . As is the case and influence for most of our 21st centuries T.V Superstar chefs ie]; Nigella, Jamie, Hugh , Theo Randall etc . Without Anna there,d be no River Cafe either which is where the afore mentioned launched their carres, apart from Nigella who became a close friend with her mentor and hero chef.
