Austerity Baking!

Nutrition or ammunition?

One of our residents was in the Naafi during the war, and recalls being on the south coast in the days before D-day keeping the troops fed. Her speciality was rock buns, so we had a go.......

In fact, warm from the oven, they were delicious!

The kitchen rose to the challenge too, rustling up Woolton Pie, and bread pudding.  Woolton Pie was a recipe promoting vegetables as a main course, and was named after Lord Woolton, the Minister of Food.
