About

I’m Brian. I like dabbling with cooking, often trying new recipes. I enjoy the challenge of baking. I endorse these recipes. I’ve tried most of them. Many come from my mother’s old recipe book and are ones I enjoyed growing up.

I live in New Zealand and use the metric system, but many old recipes use imperial measurements.

The photo below includes my mother’s recipe book, her old Edmonds baking powder tin and a jar containing ginger for cooking. The green tin is an unopened tin of Strangs pure ground pimento or allspice.
