First published in 1929, this is the quintessential Scottish cookbook with classic recipes and the lore and history of food in Scotland. The writer, F. Marian McNeill, wanted to preserve traditional foods and cooking techniques at a time when new cooking methods and what she termed 'an age of standardization' risked sending these recipes into oblivion. Her fresh approach telling the history of the dish in addition to the recipe made her book a best seller. It has been our best selling cookbook over the past 20 years and we are delighted to offer the newest reprint edition. 344 pages paperback.
