Women's Weekly: Retro Favourites

More about the book

Take a trip down memory lane to the 1950s when home cooks devoted endless hours to preparing meals, especially for elaborate formal dinner parties. This new selection of recipes not only reflects the way we used to cook and eat, but how we've brought food up-to-date to suit our current lifestyle. We used to eat plastic-plated inners with a knife and fork in front of the television, now we're more likely to eat a bowl of Asian-style food with chopsticks in front of all manner of screens. Teamed with memorable magazine ads from days gone by, these recipes create a cookbook to treasure.
