So I got mum's cookbook back the other day from the Philippines and I'm loving the cake and biscuit recipes.
The savoury recipes though range from hilarious to horrific.... Let me show you some marvellous recipes from the 70's and 80's.....
1. This doesn't look to bad... then you read the description... kangaroo stew, with pickled onions all over it. Like it ain't no thang....
2. "An Impromptu Meal" with impromptu napkins in glasses. Food stylists take note. Boiled until they almost die a second death peas and corn. Asparagus Rolls Supreme, yes, that's what they are called: Asparagus spears, cream of chicken soup (canned), ham slices... olives. Tuna Aurora made with tomato soup with chips jammed into it's sides. Tangy Fruit Marshmallow.... !
3. ROLLMOP SALAD. Doesn't it look delicious?! Cold, slippery rollmops in sour cream...
4. Roast Fillet of Beef with Sauce Valouis... and by the looks of it semi raw bacon....
If anyone wants these recipes let me know... hahaahahahahaha
I wonder what recipes we will cringe at in 30 years time from now?
