This book is a wonderful collection of early Australian recipes. Included is a wide variety of recipes from mains through to deserts. I have included with each recipe the date in which it appeared in the newspaper of the time. This book is a wonderful look back through cooking in Australia. What ingredients were used and how. It also includes some helpful general principle cooking tips. The recipes have been rewritten as they were at the time to ensure the authenticity of the recipe. I hope you enjoy reading and using these wonderful early recipes.
