Product Description

Product Description

This cookery book originally came out in 1933, four years after the Aga was first sold in Britain: it was invented by a Swede who had lost his sight and has now been part of British life for more than seventy-five years. But although "Good Food on the Aga" is the perfect cookbook for those with an Aga, it can easily be used by those without since only the first part, about forty pages, is specifically about Aga cooking ("The Aga Cooker, its Management and Scope"); the second part, organised into months, has a list of food in season at the beginning of each section followed by very easy-to-follow recipes suitable for any kind of cooker. This book takes us back to a time when knowledge of what food was in season was an essential part of every cook's equipment - and when the technique of riddling the Aga was a vital part of everyday life. The numerous illustrations are by Edward Bawden.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Christmas present, 9 Dec 2003
By FJ Todd (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this for my Mum for Christmas because she is adores her Aga. I weakened though and I've already given it to her. She absolutely loves it. The book is an object of beauty, in common with all Persephone's editions and Edward Bawden's illustrations are charming. The recipes are sensibly divided up into months of the year and according to my Mum are 'jolly good' despite - or perhaps because - they were devised in the 1930s. Perhaps the best thing about this book though is the language - my Mum is delighted by its wit, sophistication and irony. Very warmly recommended to anyone interested in cooking and clever writing, whether they own an Aga or not.
