    The pickled fish is fantastic - just how my husband remembers his grandmother making it.

Notes about Recipes in this book

      I made a half quantity in a loaf pan and boy were the volume measurements annoying. I don't mind things measured in cups but this measured in ml things that had no business being measured in ml. I was worried that SR flour AND baking powder AND baking soda would end up tasting metallic, but it didn't. The raising agents and the oil made a really tender, light cake, but the flavour was disappointing. If I were to make it again, I would add a good pinch of salt and double the amount of cinnamon, or add an equal amount of ginger or nutmeg or something.
