Condition: Like New Rare Book - No markings. Appears Unread. The dust jacket has minor rubbing; otherwise, it is an exceptional copy.
Written by practicing Jamaican cook Enid Donaldson, The Real Taste of Jamaica provides simple, time-saving recipes that allow ingredient substitutions. The book is divided into the following sections:
| Fish, Chicken and Meat | Vegetarian |
| Soups, Sauces and Dressings | Beverages |
| Traditional Jamaican Baked Goods | Desserts |
Each section opens with stories and anecdotes that remind you of the days when meat was cured by smoking, and sweet potato pudding was baked in an iron ‘dutch’ oven. The Real Taste is abundantly illustrated with photographs, line drawings, and watercolour images.
"This is the very best cookbook I have ever owned. The recipes and ingredients are true to the finished products. I was born in Jamaica and have lived in Canada since I was eleven. I miss many of the foods I had as a child. Now I will be able to make these again and will eventually pass the book on to our daughter.” Buyer review.
