So many of our happiest childhood memories are connected to food. Rediscover the flavours of all-time favourites such as traditional stuffed roast chicken, figgy toffee pudding, and freshly baked scones with strawberry jam. Darina also offers lots of thrifty tips for using up leftovers in delicious ways. Essential reading for urban and rural dwellers alike, this is the definitive modern guide to traditional cookery skills. 'There's not much this gourmet grande dame doesn't know.'
