Bee Wilson è la scrittrice e storica del cibo che scrive come ''Kitchen Thinker'' sul Sunday Telegraph, ed è l'autrice di Swindled. Il suo nuovo libro affascinante e originale, Consider the Fork, esplora come gli utensili che utilizziamo in cucina abbiano plasmato il nostro modo di cucinare e vivere. Questa è la storia di come abbiamo domato il fuoco e il ghiaccio, brandito fruste, cucchiai, grattugie, schiacciapatate, pestelli e mortai, tutto in nome del nutrimento di noi stessi. Bee Wilson ci porta in un incantevole viaggio culinario attraverso le incredibili creazioni, invenzioni e ossessioni che hanno plasmato come e cosa cuciniamo. Da enormi fuochi aperti Tudor a macchine sous-vide, dalla nascita della forchetta ai gadget romani, Consider the Fork è la storia finora sconosciuta delle nostre cucine. Bee Wilson scrive una rubrica settimanale di cibo, ''The Kitchen Thinker'' sul Sunday Telegraph, per la quale è stata nominata tre volte giornalista gastronomica dell'anno dalla Guild of Food Writers. I suoi libri precedenti includono The Hive: The Story of the Honeybee and Us e Swindled. Prima di diventare una food writer, è stata una Research Fellow in History allo St John's College di Cambridge. È stata anche una semifinalista di Masterchef. Il suo utensile da cucina preferito è attualmente lo schiacciapatate.
