Absolutely love this book. The pictures above are of the pudding "Apple Dumpling" that i made from this book - incredibly simple and yet it has become an instant favourite.
If you want traditional English/British food then these are the books for you (yes, we have a rich food culture beyond "fish 'n' chips" that people largely repeat out of ignorance).

Jane Austen said "good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness" and one can understand that opinion as a good warm apple pie can invoke dreamy memories (and not those that were shown in the "American Pie" film either!). Yet the apple is an often under-estimated ingredient in cooking, despite its versatility in both food and drink affairs.
This "Favourite Apple Recipes" book is another in a long series of pocket-sized and friendly books that feature many oft-forgotten, uncommon English recipes, This modest 48 page tome features 34 diverse apple recipes ranging from old favourites such as an apple crumble and apple pudding to more rarified delights such as apple gingerbread, apple and potato cake or even an apple, raisin and cider tea bread.
One can surely state that there will be at least a few recipes that you've never heard of, let alone tried before. Yet one does not need to be a kitchen genius to try these recipes, each featured on their own page, as despite the lack of food illustrations one gets sufficient information from the concise, to-the-point instructions. A very brief history or explanation about the dish's development is provided as well for the curious.
As with other books in this series, one does not even have to plan to cook the various recipes in order to benefit from it as the timeless sepia images of rural England can provide a dreamy excursion back to a more innocent age. But you would be advised to don your apron and prove to yourself that the humble apple is, in fact, a versatile beast.
Favourite Apple Recipes, published by J. Salmon Ltd. ISBN 978-1-902842-28-8, 48 pages. Typical price: GBP1.50.
