Rediscover the Spirit of Christmas Past with Glyn Hughes' culinary journey through half-a-thousand years of English cookery books. This collection of original recipes, including Durham Fluffin, Pepper Cake, and the shape for mince pies, brings to life the Old English Christmas and Yule celebrations.
From traditional dishes like Christmas Pottage and Queen Victoria's mincemeat recipe, to more unusual ingredients like tripe in the mincemeat (1764 recipe included), this book is a treasure trove of historical cooking. With nearly one hundred authentic recipes at your fingertips, you can experience the evolution of English cuisine over centuries.
Part of the Foods of England project, this book offers a unique insight into the history of Christmas food and invites you to make it part of your festive traditions yet to come.
