Sharing the recipes on social media, she wrote: “Well, yes, Bitter Orange Tart just happens to be #RecipeOfTheDay.

“Apart from anything else, there are more things to make with Seville oranges than marmalade! This is not complicated: the base is bashed ginger nuts.”

Author Caitlin Moran wrote on Twitter: “If anyone says ‘Given the last few years, are there any things that still make you proud to be British?’

“I have to reply, ‘It’s a dwindling list, but Nigella Lawson calmly choosing Bitter Orange Tart on the day Trump leaves office would be one of them’.”

BBC Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw added: “Nigella love levels rising.”
