Favourite Yorkshire Teatime Recipes: Traditional Country Fare (Favourite Recipes)

In 47 pages, 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.
