Irish Stew - 1970s

Image
This is most probably an older recipe, but I am taking it from the newest addition to my collection.  The first edition of the 1000 Recipe Cook Book, editied by Isabel Barrett and Jane Harrop ISBN 0706405315 As with these sorts of books, the recipe itself is most probably older than 1970s but it appeared in 1976, not possibly the first time it appeared.  It is very much one of those timeless classics that has evolved as you can read on  about.com  on their history of Irish Stew.  One thing that I love is that this recipe can be 'Boozy' if you want it to be.  Whack a bit of Guinness in why not?

Cheese and Orange Salad

Here is a recipe in two parts.  First part is for the salad , second part is the dressing.  As its a French dressing you could get away with a shop bought alternative.  This would be perfect for a sixties themed party. 8 oz. cubed cheddar cheese 2 oranges 2 medium sized onions 4 half inch slices of bread fat for frying watercress French Dressing 6 tablespoons of olive oil 1 tablespoon of orange juice 2 tablespoons of lemon juice grated rind of 1 orange salt pinch of cayenne pepper 1.

Wash watercress if needed.  Make dressing by mixing all ingredients together. 4. Toss all ingredients in dressing separately and arrange in circles overlapping towards the centre. *Editors Note* This is quite a straightf...

Danish Open Sandwiches (1970's)

Image
The open sandwich has had a bit of a revival recently.  You can purchase open sandwiches to go in some upmarket shops, have a meal in a Scandi restaurant KuPP and you'll see open sandwiches on the menu.  But this is Marguerite Patten's take on this fancy fashionable party food idea.
