Do tell what you think when you get it. 

 

Well, Anna, I am well into the book and except for your post I would have no clue as to Hugh's last name.  It is a glimpse into an alien world where gas mark is venerated but no condescension is made to Fahrenheit.  Most of these three item recipes would not make it past the six, twelve, or even twenty item checkout lanes at the local supermarket.

 

Which is not to say some of the recipes are not interesting.  I have been sticking in bookmarks.  Though I must reiterate my hands on experience of British cuisine is bacon in cans from Denmark and custard in packets from Bird's.
