Good Eating (Daily Telegraph)

Description:

Supplemented by recipes by the Daily Telegraph Home Cook, this collection was put together at a time when, as the blurb states, new recipes are needed. This delightful facsimile edition includes recipes for the perfect omelette made with dried egg and mock cream; mock fish pie (made with Jerusalem artichokes! ) ; And seven ways to stuff potatoes. But amongst the more horrific attempts to feed a family on meagre rations are some dishes that would grace any good cooks table today: jugged steak, red cabbage, hot and cold, fresh fruit charlotte, and spiced fruit gingerbread. Even recipes that seem heavily reliant on tinned milk, margarine and dried egg, when made today with fresh milk, butter, and whole eggs will work a treat.
