Nigella Lawson has high praise for Ruby Tandoh's new cook book. Ruby was a runner up in series 4 of The Great British Bake Off back in 2013, when she was a bright-eyed first year at the prestigious University College London. She was a clear star from the get-go and has had an impressive career as a food writer since, writing for the likes of the New Yorker and the Guardian alongside five books.
