'Ever wondered how to cook Thomas Hardy's frumenty, make Izaak
Walton's Minnow Tansies or pickle elder buds?' asked the "Sunday
Telegraph". "Good Things in England" is a collection of 853
regional recipes dating back to the C14th. First published in 1932,
it was written by Florence White, the country's first ever
freelance food journalist, and, like all classic culinary works, it
is a pleasure to read. 'A marvellous compendium of recipes'
declared Matthew Fort in "The Guardian"; 'one of the most
influential cookery books of the C20th' said the "Church Times";
and in "Saga" magazine Derek Cooper wrote about 'a remarkable woman
called Florence White...who believed that "we had the finest
cookery in the world but it has been nearly lost by neglect.'"'The
book is a classic,' said Elizabeth David, 'in that the author's
collection of English recipes is unique and their authenticity
unquestioned. The book is also a lovely one to read, full of fresh
ideas and appetising descriptions of English specialities.'
