Oxford Sausages
2 Dec 2010
Format:Paperback
I love this mini-cookbook series--each book packs 30+ traditional English recipes into an attractive illustrated volume (no pictures of the food, however.) This one in particular was worth the purchase because of one recipe--Oxford Sausages, (which do not require stuffing into skins, by the way.) Wouldn't have thought of putting grated lemon rind, nutmeg, parsley, thyme, mint, sage and marjoram into the meat, but it gives the sausages a delightful & distinctive flavor. Each recipe hails from a different part of England, and represents centuries-old cuisine. Measurements are English, not metric, but the book includes a metric conversion chart at the back. Occasionally recipes call for an ingredient not familiar to American cooks ("black treacle" sounds rather sinister, until you realize you can substitute light molasses)--and "Sweeney Todd" came to mind when I saw that the Cornish Pasty calls for 1 pound of "swede" (aka. rutabaga). But part of the fun is exploring the British culture through its food. This is a great little cookbook, excellent stocking-stuffer and a high-value, low-cost gift for friends.
