It seems that the 21st edition dates back to 1958. The recipe was not in the 17th (1954) edition which I also have so this recipe therefore first appeared between 1954 and 1958. So now we know !!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-68973070048420386892021-04-10T19:18:00.830+01:002021-04-10T19:18:00.830+01:00I've found the recipe in the 21st edition but ...I've found the recipe in the 21st edition but I'm not sure what date that was published.

They <b>always</b> leaked jam. I like the idea of coconut and ginger in a tart a lot. As for the size of eggs, I used to try hard to find eggs that were large enough for whatever I was making but recently I've been trying to make sure that they're not too huge. Questions should be asked in parliament.
