NEWS: Miss S Coyle Cellan-Jones, Sunday night party girl, said when interviewed βma mΓ¨reβs gateau looks trΓ¨s magnifique. Moi wonders who these amis are. Moi hopes it is Juno, mais nous will have to be careful, she could mange that gateau in une secondeβ.
Ginger cake is the best particularly if the starting mixture is quite liquid. I too use a very old recipe..I think mine is the McDougals one from the 60s rather than Bero.
I think I'll have to make one now having seen yours.
My mum went through 8 gingerbread recipes before finding the one she'd used when we were kids.
The one from a 1970's Bero book was the winner (the most recent Bero edition has a different recipe), just the right amount of sticky gingeryness. π
I actually like the sound of the corned beef roll π my mums corned beef hash with crusty bread when we were growing up was always a treat. With beetroot or red cabbage π
My sister in law makes a lovely ginger cake made from a Caribbean recipe handed down from her Mum. Along with her Christmas cake, itβs the highlight of our Christmas.
