Basic pastry recipes
Simple short crust or flaky pastry is used in many of the recipes here. Do remember when a recipe calls for a quantity of pastry – for instance 4 oz. of short crust pastry, the quantity refers to the weight of the flour only, not all the ingredients added together. Therefore 4oz. short crust pastry means a pastry made up using 4 oz. flour and 2 oz. fat, etc.

How to make a hearty breakfast
Hearty breakfast is a sound basis for a day's hard work, whether at the office or at home. If you've little time for preparation, set the table and prepare as much of the food as possible the night before. Allow as much time as possible for eating, and vary the menu as much as possible - begin with porridge, cereal, stewed, fruit or fruit juice and then follow up with a main dish, toast and marmalade and a hot drink.
