Miss F. Marian McNeill: Scottish Favourites: I
(From Edinburgh)
This week Miss Marian McNeill begins the series of talks on national dishes which extends Miss White's subject to all parts of the Empire. She is the authoress of 'The Scots Kitchen: its Traditions and Lore, with Old-Time Recipes' and of 'The Scottish National Cookery Book.' Scots cooking has, like that of all other nations, been determined by the materials available in the past; so that we find that meal and fish, rather than flour and meat, preponderate in the Scottish recipes. Miss McNeill will no doubt refer to the classic handbook of the Scots cuisine, Meg Dod's historic Manual of Cookery.
