Yorkshire Teatime Recipes

Time traveling from your kitchen

In 47 pages of Yorkshire Teatime recipes by Amanda Persey, you get 34 recipes and many of them are very new to me. Batley Cake, Cable Cake, Curd Tarts, Harrier Cake, Ilkley Cake, Leeds Parkin and so on.

Then there is the set of recipes that begin with York and Yorkshire - Biscuits, Buns, Cheesecakes...

Some recipes come with very distinct notes like how Parkin always has oatmeal in it. Batley Cake is made on a baking sheet and not in a tin. Thats the first one I am going to take a stab at.

And the black and white pictures interspersed between the recipes retain the feel of Yorkshire in visual sense too.

Cooking for engineers Tasso Ham . When I read that Tasso is also the name of an Italian poet, I wanted to point to his work too. I looked for it but found it in prehistoric language. It so happens that I am reading poems about horses and recognised Tasso's name beneath his poem translated. Second paragraph has life infused in it with equine motions. Another poem that I like in this collection is 'New Foal' by Ted Hughes.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard. all purpose flour plays the corn starch role of thickening the custard. I used Parle G instead of vanilla wafers.
