Format:Paperback
Great little book of sweet and savory old fashioned preserves. Thirty one recipes ranging from old favourites such as lemon curd, green tomato chutney and piccalilli to the more unusual chestnut jam, parsley honey and rum & raisin marmalade. Nicely illustrated with drawings of old country cottages.

I'm on to my second copy of this book, my mother came to visit and it just 'happened' to fall into her bag before she left.
No photos of any finished dish, so not one for cooks that require photos for guidence/inspiration.
There are a few recipes in this book that are duplicated in others of this range, but overall a nice collection.
