| | Customer Reviews: I need this book! (07 January 2009)RedOktober's question needs a prompt answer. Swedes are called turnips in Scotland. (I didn't really come across turnip turnips till coming to live in England.) Something above the ordinary (12 December 2008)This is wonderful cook book with hearty, practical recipes that are also easy to make. I am completely addicted to cook books and have several dozen but this is the first cook book I've managed to find with such down to earth recipes. My only criticism is that I have no idea what Maw Broon actually means by turnips - does she mean turnips or does she mean swedes which I believe may be called turnips north of the border? If anybody could enlighten me... Mrs Broon - Can I Come Round For My Tea? (23 October 2008)The scrapbooker in me loves this book for the pure visual experience I got as soon as I opened my Amazon parcel. Certainly not your average cookbook - it really is set out like Maw Broons very own recipe book from magazine clippings, scribbles & doodles from the kids, tea stains and squished spiders between the pages! This by no means detracts from the very real recipes - good proper recipes that the family will eat not the fancy shmancy stuff that looks pretty but wouldn't fill a gnats belly. I actually bought this for my sister for Christmas - purely for the nostalgia value as she collected the Broons and Oor Wullie books as a kid. I've now told her she isn't getting it unless she buys me one in return! :D A beautiful, beautiful book in it's own right and some drool inducing recipes to boot. Nostalgia on a plate (10 October 2008)Having been a recipient of The Broons and Oor Wullie annuals every Christmas for the past 50+ years, I was enchanted by this book. It combines sensible, every day recipes with a window into the family life. More importantly, it settles a long-running Scottish argument - as can be seen from the address on a postcard, the Broons very definitely reside in Dundee! Everyone should have this book! (01 September 2008)What a wonderful cookbook. Great recipes, wonderfully chosen, charmingly illustrated. Great comfort stuff, takes you back to childhood. I've sent many copies to all my expat Scottish friends and family. My own copy keeps on being borrowed so I'm buying myself another one for Christmas! Dinnae miss it! | |
