Encyclopedia of Food and Cookery |
 Margaret Fulton was born near Inverness in Scotland, the youngest of six children. Her parents were both tailors and went to Australia when Margaret was four years old. The family set up home in Glen Innes, NSW, and it's there that young Margaret first learnt to cook.
You might not recognise the name unless you are Australian but Margaret is as celebrated there as Delia Smith might be in the UK. She has 20 or so books to her credit and was said to be one of the 100 most influential Australians and credited with teaching the nation to cook.
Encyclopedia of Food and Cookery is an obvious labour of love. It took Margaret a full 18 months to bring this mammoth work to completion for publication in 1983. This is the revised and updated edition and reflects the array of ingredients available to modern home cooks. |

 If we eat our cornflakes late on a Sunday morning we might think we are eating brunch but that, dear reader, is only a late breakfast. Brunch is an event! It's a great way to feed a crowd in style. Rachel Lee is a Californian (did they invent brunch?) who lives in Italy and divides her time between Tuscany and Sicily. She has taken another look at the whole concept of brunch and has devised a selection of themed menus. You don't have to stick slavishly to those; you can mix and match the dishes and even add a few of your own favourite breakfast or lunch recipes. |
