PASS IT ON - COOKING TIPS FROM THE 1950s

Pass It On: Cooking Tips From The 1950s is a collection of the culinary recipes and tips collected from newspapers and magazines of the 1950s, when housewives used to write in with their ingenious, clever and tasty hints and tips. How do guarantee a cake won't stick in a baking tin? What's the secret of the best gravy you'll ever taste? What's the recipe for that cure-for-all-ills chicken soup grandma used to make? There are hundreds of tips in the book with names of contributors and dates when they were published in the 1950s. Illustrated by classic adverts for food of the 1950s, with illustrations from the original versions of the cookery and recipe pamphlets given away with magazines, baking powder and flour manufacturers. Pure nostalgia.
