2016 Project366 (Day 31)
I have been performing a little emergency surgery on this old cookery book.
It is well worn and falling apart with a selection of old recipes tucked safely between the pages.
It is my go to book on how to make classic sauces and meals but also contains some specials such as a section called ‘Recipes from round the World which has recipes for Baked Eel, Bird’s Nest Salad and Beetroot Soup.
This book belonged to my Mum and it is annotated throughout with her thoughts. It makes me feel close to her, and I love the thought that she is able to continue influencing my cooking. I miss her so much.
