How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[Omletina Kyckling]

I was reminded of this by Kate's snickerdoodles recipe as I've just made them and they really remind me of Melting Moments from the Be-Ro cookbook, although these don't have cinnamon but are rolled in oats or coconut instead.

 

Anyway, how many of you out there use the old Be-Ro cookbooks? My mum used to send off for them using coupons off flour packets and I have a couple which are all held together with tape now.

 

I was in Morrisons the other day and they had them for sale, next to the flour for £1-2 or something like that. So I just looked on the internet and all the recipes are now online!!

 

If you're interested, have a look here, there are some great traditional cake recipes on it, I often use fancy cookbooks but always go back to either my Be-Ro ones or the Dairy Book of Home Cooking which mum got from the milkman back in the 80s (before you say anything she paid cash for it..... )

Wow! Your Be-Ro cookbook beats mine!! I love the basic recipes in it, and always go back to them. Have a look at the website as there are even more recipes there!

I have my Grandma's Be-Ro cookery book and use it all the time. A smashing little recipe book all held together with sticky tape . It's one of the ones which sparked my interest in 30s-40s cookery books.......an interest which has now become a bit of an obsession .

I have the Be-Ro cook book that used to belong to my mum, the orange cake is a favourite in our house and i can still remember making cheese straws using the book when i was a child......I love my Be-Ro book and hope to pass it on to Emily when she leaves home.....

I use the Be-Ro cookbooks as well - and the Dairy Cookbook

They were the two books mum packed me off to University with....we didn't do cooking together when I was little as mum couldn't stand the mess in the kitchen so she gave me those two books so I could teach myself!!

Hello

 

This brings back memories

 

I have exactly the same Be-Ro book as Egluntine !

 

When we used to have a coal fire back in the days when OH worked for NCB we often used the Drop Scone recipe to cook fresh mini pancakes on a griddle pan over the open flames. I also remember popping corn, roasting chestnuts and baking spuds wrapped in foil on the fire when the weather tuned cold.

 

The living flame gas fire we now have looks real enough but is now where near as practical as a real coal fire.

 

Regards,

I have my nanna's be-ro cookbook and when I smell the pages it takes me back to her kitchen when I was a child! That's a bit weird isn't it!?

I have a couple of Be-Ro books my Mum only had one of these and a Good Housekeeping cookbook when I was a child.

 

The first things I ever cooked were from it, melting moments ( I have never managed to make them as nice as my Mum's) and butter tartlets ( my favourite when I was little)

 

The first cake that I ever made was the boiled fruit cake

 

We also have an old Stork margarine book that was my MIL's main cookbook, so my OH likes a lot of the recipes in that, steamed puddings, baked sponges, yorkshire pudding and fruit crumble the recipe my YD always uses so it is going on for another generation but it is now falling apart.

i sent off for one two years ago...and we've made sausage rolls. corned beef and potato pie (I know ugh...but with enough potato and onion it was suprsingly nice and cheap), tarts and cakes...

 

much nicer than shop bought...

 

I used to use my mothers for home economics/food and nutrition when I was at school. as well as the Hamlyn All Colour Cook Book..!!!!still available on amazon...

 

she also had the Farmhouse Kitchen cook book...
