From country shows to kitchen table, discover the secrets of blue-ribbon cooking. 'This delightful book takes me right back to the delicious aromas and tastes of the farm kitchens and country shows of my childhood, and encourages us all to have a go.' Heather Ewart
If you've ever tasted a sublime scone, looked in awe on glowing ranks of preserves, wondered if you could make your own dog biscuits or felt an itch to enter baked goods in your local show, and if you've ever wished someone would share their inside tips and tricks to help you achieve perfection, this is the book for you.
The New Blue Ribbon Cookbook is a treasury of time-honoured recipes that have been tested in competition, and a compendium of priceless knowledge and advice from prize-winning cooks and meticulous show judges who have refined the art of making and selecting the best of the best.
And it is about more than recipes. In this accessible and stunning guide, best-selling author Liz Harfull also brings to life the heart-warming stories of diverse cooks- from 9 years old to 90, men and women, neurodivergent and neurotypical- and gives a unique glimpse into the rich traditions of agricultural shows and their lasting significance to communities across Australia.
This book is the ultimate inspiration for anyone desiring to expand their repertoire of blue-ribbon winners- for competition or for company.
