Each and every one of these 700 recipes is illustrated with a glorious, mouth-watering full color photo of the finished recipe, which all look scrumptious, beautiful, nutritious and surprisingly easy to follow.
what is black treacle, rolled hindloin of pork, or buckling? A few ingredients aren't things i commonly know or use. The ham pie recipe is actually a loaf or a pie crust surrounding a can of ham. Spaghetti with goat cheese overwhelms with the flavour of the cheese. Lettuce is cooked rather than raw. This book from 1976 features ingredients and some recipes long forgotten i think. They aren't any recipes that remind me of something i ate. However, this book does offer a challenge for those interested in recipes currently out of fashion and long forgotten. Many ingredients are readily available. Each recipe has a picture and takes a page- so the recipes are easy. Some recipes will remind of popular recipes cooked today such as minestrone or coleslaw. But prawns ravigote? Never seen that before. Interesting in the hands of the right person.
