GRANDMA'S COOKING

This terrific book has a comprehensive collection of classic British recipes that come directly from Grandma's kitchen, where little has changed since the days of wartime rationing. From the humble pasty to roast beef, from chocolate cake to christmas cake, treacle tart and apple sponge to scones and strawberry jam, you will find all you need to bring the delicious flavours and comforts of Grandma's plain home cooking to your family and friends at any time of day, all year round. Starting with the fundamentals such as sponge mix and shortcrust pastry in Basic Methods, the recipes are categorised into eight sections: Light Meals, Fish, Main Courses, Sunday Roast, Puddings, Cakes & Biscuits, Christmas, and Jam & Marmalade. The recipes are written in plain English, with a very clear layout and easy to follow instructions given in short numbered steps. Included are tips from Grandma and an invaluable timetable to help organise and simplify the too often intimidating Sunday roast.
