ESSIE'S RECIPES

Recipes From The Books Of Essie Summers

"Some books are to be tasted, other to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested."

Francis Bacon

Cooking and eating good food was obviously one of the great pleasures of Essie Summers' life. This is reflected in her novels where her heroines (with one notable exception!) are all capable and often excellent cooks. Consider Prudence Sinclair, a culinary expert who astounded Hugo Macallister with the delicious meals she prepared ("Where No Roads Go"). On this site I would like to assemble recipes for some of the dishes that she talks about, both so I can keep track of them myself and so that others can share them. I will also be including some of my favourite recipes, and links to other recipe and cooking sites that I enjoy (particularly with a New Zealand bent). So sit down with a cuppa while you browse through the recipes. I hope you enjoy your visit here.
