In 1939, Britain was preparing for war. As well as building
aeroplanes and digging Anderson shelters, this meant managing food
supplies for the home front. The Ministry of Food rose to the
challenge, introducing rationing, encouraging the nation to dig for
victory, and issuing cookbooks and health advice. Drawing
inspiration from Britain’s ‘finest hour’, when the thrifty
British housewife had to grow her own veg, stretch the butter
ration and still keep her family fighting fit, this is both a
social history of wartime dining and a collection of over sixty
delicious and healthy seasonal recipes with a vintage twist.
