Hello, retro food lovers! Today we are stepping back in time for a fun theme.  Remember the childhood book “Ghosts and Crows and Things With O’s?  Well, today is the opposite. My aim today was to create a menu where none of the recipes contain the letter O in its name.  Weird?  Yes but so […] The post March 2004 – No O’s first appeared on Retro Food For Modern Times ..read more

Hello crime readers and food lovers!  Today’s Dining With The Dame novel, The Hollow, contains many references to food so I did not have to resort to any terrible puns.  The novel was published in 1946 which makes me wonder if, despite rationing continuing well into the 1950s, there was a sense of post-war abundance […] The post Caramel Custard – The Hollow first appeared on Retro Food For Modern Times ..read more

Instead, consider it a literary aperitif, a tasty prelude to the main course.  Today’s recipe is a cocktail called “Malice in The Hollow.” This concoction is a playful riff on Hedda Hopper’s […] The post Malice In The Hollow first appeared on Retro Food For Modern Times ..read more

Hello crime readers and food lovers. Let me start right off with an apology for the atrocious pun. I am so sorry. But…I was racking my brains to think of what to cook for Towards Zero and, as is my want, I started searching for a pun. “What rhymes with Audrey..tawdry…no cancel that one.

Hello, retro food lovers and welcome to 2004!  This month the random number generator chose Pink as the theme for our menu via the pages of Good Taste Magazine. Before we start though, maybe let’s throw around some phrases usually more prevalent in corporate speak than around here… Maybe we just need to redefine what […] The post Jan 2004 – Pretty in Pink? first appeared on Retro Food For Modern Times ..read more

G’Day Mates! Today we are heading back to our old friend Goodhousekeeping’s World Cookery for a sweet treat from the Antipodes! People hotly debate whether the Pavolva was invented in Australia or New Zealand.  We will not be entering into that discussion here.  Neither does Good Housekeeping.  They, rather wisely have a recipe for Pavlova […] The post Classic Pavlova first appeared on Retro Food For Modern Times ..read more

Hello crime readers and food lovers! I will admit that I was not looking forward to reading Death Comes As The End.  Whilst I have read a few historical mysteries, it is not my preferred genre of mystery reading.  The 150 years from the late 19th century (Sherlock Holmes) to now a pretty much my […] The post Death Comes As The End – Spelt Salad with Duck first appeared on Retro Food For Modern Times ..read more
