Seventy-six of the best tried-and-true homemade recipes from a bygone era, lovingly selected from the notebooks of 95-year-old Dulcie May Booker. This edition, Compiled by her granddaughter, talented foodie Natalie Oldfield, Grans Kitchen is sure to satisfy the current interest in traditional cookery in a very personal way. A little of the old, a little new, it is full of simple, comforting, and easy-to-make cakes, breakfasts, dinners, and desserts, as well as her secrets to award-winning baking and preserving. Not only is this book a beautiful cookbook, but it is also filled with wonderful family love and community spirit. At times achingly nostalgic, Grans Kitchen is peppered with reminiscences and photographs of a once-typical but now disappearing lifestyle of pastoral dances and neighborhood dressmakers. Laden with warm, gorgeous, full-page images, it is the perfect gift for a grandmother, or a granddaughter. This edition is in American measurements.

I loved this cookbook it is full of those old recipes we all love like lamingtons and sponges. I also loved the sentiment behind the making of the book. Natalie Oldfield together with her sister deicated this book to their Gran hence the title. It is a collection of family and friends recipes handed down through the generations.
