Carol Tennant is a member of the London N1 Women's Institute and the author of several cookbooks, including Good Kitchen Magic, Knead, and What’s Cooking: Fish & Seafood.

The Women's Institute was formed in 1915 to revitalize rural communities and encourage women to become more involved in producing food during the First World War. It has since grown into the largest national women's organization in the UK and has long been known as a leading authority on home cooking. A combination of maintaining traditional values while grappling with contemporary issues has raised the profile of the organization, which is continually expanding.
