Book excerpt: The poignant and powerful second novel from the bestselling author of Custard Tarts and Broken Hearts. London, 1923. Bermondsey is the larder of London with its bustling docks, spice mill, tannery and factories. Milly Colman knows she's lucky. Working at Southwell's jam factory all week means she can have a pay packet and a laugh with her mates come Saturday. It's a welcome escape from home, where Milly must protect her mother and sisters from her father's violent temper. When autumn comes, hop-picking in Kent gives all the Colman women a longed-for respite. But it is there, on one golden September night, that Milly makes the mistake of her life and finds her courage and strength tested as never before. PRAISE FOR JAM AND ROSES: 'This book is raw and powerful and a fabulous read. This is where girl power came from; women like Milly and her family, girls who did not even have the vote at this time. This book is also a history lesson, telling the story of the general strike' Mrs H, Amazon reviewer. 'Well written, with pace, engaging characters, a good narrative and some suspense. A real authentic tone, too: the central characters reminded me of the formidable spirit of my mother/grandmothers who lived through, and survived, these demanding times' Fredmart, Amazon reviewer. 'A fantastic read! I was hooked from the first paragraph, Mary Gibson is a fabulous and talented writer. A book you can't put down but, yet you want to find out the ending without wanting the book to finish. Well done and thank you. Can't wait to read the next book' Michelle Thompson, Amazon reviewer. 'If you enjoy post war stories of women's hardship, based in london, then this is the book to read. It kept me enthralled from the start. Highly recommended' Shell R, Amazon reviewer. 'So full of emotion and tragedies, but also humour, happiness, love and hate' Patsy, Amazon reviewer.

Download or read book Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Eating Well written by Pellegrino Artusi and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2003-12-27 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1891, Pellegrino Artusi's La scienza in cucina e l'arte di mangier bene has come to be recognized as the most significant Italian cookbook of modern times. It was reprinted thirteen times and had sold more than 52,000 copies in the years before Artusi's death in 1910, with the number of recipes growing from 475 to 790. And while this figure has not changed, the book has consistently remained in print. Although Artusi was himself of the upper classes and it was doubtful he had ever touched a kitchen utensil or lit a fire under a pot, he wrote the book not for professional chefs, as was the nineteenth-century custom, but for middle-class family cooks: housewives and their domestic helpers. His tone is that of a friendly advisor – humorous and nonchalant. He indulges in witty anecdotes about many of the recipes, describing his experiences and the historical relevance of particular dishes. Artusi's masterpiece is not merely a popular cookbook; it is a landmark work in Italian culture. This English edition (first published by Marsilio Publishers in 1997) features a delightful introduction by Luigi Ballerini that traces the fascinating history of the book and explains its importance in the context of Italian history and politics. The illustrations are by the noted Italian artist Giuliano Della Casa.
Download or read book Jambusters written by Julie Summers and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compelling true story that inspired the hugely successful major ITV drama series HOME FIRES – now in its second season. The Second World War was the WI's finest hour. The whole of its previous history - two decades of educating, entertaining and supporting women and campaigning on women's issues - culminated in the enormous collective responsibility felt by the members to 'do their bit' for Britain. With all the vigour, energy and enthusiasm at their disposal, a third of a million country women set out to make their lives and the lives of those around them more bearable in what they described as 'a period of insanity'. Through archive material and interviews with many WI members, Julie Summers takes us behind the scenes, revealing their nitty-gritty approach to the daily problems presented by the conflict. Jambusters is the fascinating story of how the Women's Institute pulled rural Britain through the war with pots of jam and a spirit of make-do-and-mend.

Download or read book The Jam Book written by May Byron and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2006. The Jam Book is a practical guide to the preservation of fruit- not only jams, but also jellies, marmalades preserves, conserves, cheeses; pastes, butters, chips; crystallised, candied, and brandied fruit; fruit dried and fruit bottled. The object of preserving fruit is to ward off, exclude or neutralise those bacilli which otherwise would cause its almost immediate decay. A heavy solution of sugar; a strong acid, like vinegar; or storage in sterilised jars in which the fruit is externally heated to boiling point - these are the three most popular methods. The book contains hundreds of recipes - for apple marmalade, barberry jam, elderberry jelly, cherry conserve, melon marmalade, guava preserve, grape jelly, pear jam, apple and ginger preserve, and many other temping reads. For those who wish to make natural great tasting jams, this book offers an excellent array of possibilities.

Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction Starting Your Own Nursery – Red Roses Planting Your Roses Food for your roses – Pruning Added Ingredients in what you buy… Making Traditional Rosewater – the Easy Way Infused Essential Oil Starting the Infusion Process Quick Kitchen Method: Infused oil rose creams and ointments Healthy Traditional Rose Jam Rose Petals to cure Stomach Ulcers Traditional Cooling Rose Sherbet Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction In our book series publications, you are going to get informational books about how you can manage your finances, start up your small businesses, and even earn from home along with other useful necessary business and financial management tips. These books are not restricted to millennials only, because I passed the age limit of millennials – 35, more than a decade ago, and you can call me belonging to generation Y. Nevertheless, these books are based upon my experiences and the experiences of my colleagues, friends, relatives, acquaintances and Legion of cohorts. Some of them are millennials, belonging to the generation Z, age group 18 to 35, some are of generation Y, 36 to 60, and some belong to Generation X above 60. They can also find plenty of practical information in these books, and say, “yes, she is right, the financial situation and economic conditions through which we have passed and, of which generation Z does not know anything about, has been a global phenomenon, and we went through it can empathize and understand.” And that is why I decided that at least a couple of my books were going to be based on one single natural product, on which you could build your own small business, without lots of initial investment. The place in which you would make your products based on this ingredient would be either your kitchen or in a nice small corner in your basement, which is well aired, well ventilated and well lighted. Who knows that like Estée Lauder and like grandma Brown, this would be the location for a multibillion-dollar industry 20 years down the line, and you would be known all over the world as the Rose Queen or the Rose King – no doubt that dread appellation would have been bestowed upon you by the cynical press just waiting out there to pounce upon successful people. So today, we are concentrating on one product, roses, of which, we are going to be using the plants, rose petals, their leaves, their hips to make a large number of products. These products have been in use it, throughout the centuries all over the world, so I had to do a little bit of research to get the original recipes for herbal healing jam made in Persia, since ancient times, and then spread all over the world. Rosewater - Made at home Along with this, you are going to learn about healthy lotions and potions, which are going to use Rose items as a base and other natural ingredients as carrier oils. Also, red roses – this book is going to use just one plant, red roses not being not white, because these are not power enough, nor do they have the healing qualities which one expects from a fresh rose or dried rose petals. Remember these books are to help you start up your small businesses, without investing thousands of dollars in seed funding and starting up your business initially. You just need to have that product, right at hand, and a ready supply of red rose
