George Egg - The Snack Hacker

George Egg - The Snack Hacker
By George Egg

Comedian and cook George Egg is 'The Snack Hacker'.

What began as a lockdown project ballooned into a full-time pursuit for accessible, innovative and delicious culinary ideas, racking up millions of online views in the process. In his first recipe book, George delivers delights that will appeal as much to the food-fanatic as they will to the culinary curious - a crash course for the undiscovered gourmand and a reminder to the seasoned foodie that it's OK to have fun in the kitchen.

Presenting a mixture of hacks for fast food favourites alongside recipes for 'proper' dinners using surprising combinations and unconventional methods, while leaning into the food nostalgia of formative years, The Snack Hacker inhabits a place where the frowned-upon (processed cheese, crab-sticks, salad cream) sits with the gourmet (honey, tahini, seaweed). Join George as he guides you from deep-fried Pot Noodle to chip shop tortilla, microwave shakshuka to Twiglet brownies, peshwari toasties to beer-battered Celebrations - all stitched together with his culinary memories of growing up in '80s London.

A colourful cookbook that's rich with inventive design, illustration and photography, The Snack Hacker offers an inspiring approach to unpretentious cooking whether you're a professional chef, a home cook or a kitchen-shy greedy-guts.
