A whole new generation of home cooks can bring something good to the table with this completely updated edition of a classic cookbook. Margaret Fulton is credited as the woman who taught Australians how to cook with the first edition of her revered volume, published in 1968. Her kitchen wisdom fills this book, with tips and tricks on every page and recipes and techniques taught with her trademark clarity and talent. The recipes are arranged by difficulty so that cooks can make a menu to match their expertise or that fits with their schedules. Beginners and gourmands alike will find something to suit their tastes in this tantalizing collection.
Wonderful to give to your kids when they branch out on their own. And great for all sorts of "Aussie" basics, including dishes brought in by migrants from everywhere.
The influence of this book which transformed Australian eating in the 1960s cannot be overestimated. Remarkable book for its (what we'd call now) multi-cultural authenticity in the face of White Australia. Lately it's been revised, but it scarcely needs it.
This book is my cooking reference book. It's got everything in it and great explanations on cuisine, ingredients etc. I just love flicking through it and learning more about food and cooking
