I loved looking through the old newspapers, MD. It was a fascinating insight to a different world, as well as a different attitude to food.

I need to track down vegetarian suet before I go any further ….

I’m glad you enjoyed it, CJ. I saw you’d trained as a chef. Blenheim Palace sounds impressive! I’ve just made rosehip syrup, which was used for vitamin C in both world wars to replace the lack of fruit. I’m getting ready to put the results on my blog. I love the colour and the taste, and the fact that it was from the hedgerow and so wonderfully simple. I’m looking forward to trying the rest.

I’m glad I found your book here. Looking forward to it.

Juliet

As an ex chef (I trained at Blenheim Palace) I was fascinted by this. I alls make a pretty mean elderflower champagne now, but haven’t quite mastered the art of flitering it, so I have to freeze it upside down and the sediment pops out when I open it. Trouble is, after one taste things can go awry! What’s your favoutire recipe? CJ

I’ve studied food history for many years now, and am always eager to see what others have turned up.

It was fun, Julie! I’m still trying out recipes. I’ve just bought a straining bag to try rosehip syrup this weekend. There will be lots more baking too. I’m glad you like the idea!

I love to cook and bake so the premise of this book is so fun for me. What a great theme to incorporate.
