A fascinating and nostalgic collection of over 40 wholesome recipes from the Second World War.
At a time of shortages and rationing, British householders were faced with the daily challenge of providing nutritious meals for the family. This evocative compendium of recipes, illustrated with wartime propaganda notices, photographs and advertisements to give a real flavour of the time, can all be made with modern ingredients.
You'll find warming soups, ingenious ways with tinned meat, delicious vegetable dishes using produce straight from the Dig For Victory allotment, clever puddings using leftover bread and jam, and – for those who like that sort of thing – some recipes for offal. Dishes such as Spinach Soup with Dumplings, Corned Beef Rissoles, Tomato Macaroni au Gratin and Coconut Orange Pudding not only recall the ingenuity and camaraderie of those wartime days, but also make truly mouth-watering meals for today’s family table.
Now published at a bigger size with a beautiful new cover, this classic recipe collection makes the ideal gift for thrifty cooks, twentieth century history buffs, and anyone who wants to learn from Britain’s wartime ingenuity.
