# Stotty 'n' Spice Cake by Bill Griffiths (Paperback)

Stotty 'n' Spice Cake brings  
together regional recipes, dialect, social history and kitchen technology to  
give us an insight into how kitchen skills, tools and diets have  
developed. Bill Griffiths takes us on a journey through cooking history -  
from the griddle on an open fire and the 'beehive' oven to the widely used,  
much loved and polished kitchen range (th' yuven).

This  
book describes the changing tastes - as well as changes in supplies of meat,  
fish and grain over the years to include traditions such as the popularity of  
oatcakes, broth and bread. Recipes from across the region, such as Leak  
Pudding, Carlins, Singin'-hinny, Taffle Apple, Barley Broth and wartime recipes  
'Warton Pie' (Wartime Pie) of course, all served with much home grown North  
East humour.

A  
joyous celebration of the history of the food and its people from the North  
East of England.
