Cooking the English Way
by Barbara W. Hill
Lerner Publications
ISBN 0-8225-4105-X
Published July 2002 - Hardcover - 72 pages - $25.26

This is the second book I chose to read in this series.  Food I'm very familiar with.  Once again, there is a brief bit about the country, and I found the festivals and holidays particularly interesting as there were many I'd never heard of before.  Although I grew up eating "English" food, it wasn't the traditional food in every sense.  We had Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding as a treat, but were accustomed to bacon and egg breakfasts, Scones, and Shepherd's Pie.  I'd like to try the recipe for Carlings as I don't recall ever having had them, at home or abroad.  I was surprised there wasn't a recipe for a Trifle, a most English pudding and quite delicious.  And neither was there one for Bubble and Squeak.
Illustrated.  No nutritional guides.  A children's book.
Conclusion - Easy to follow recipes many of us know and love.
