Maw Broon's Cookbook

Winner of the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2007: Best Scottish Cookbook - Nominated for the Best Easy Recipes Book and Best Cookbook Design Awards

Launched in 1936 in the "Sunday Post" in Scotland, The Broons are undoubtedly Scotland's first family - the Nation's favourites - with a readership covering all generations.

This is a facsimile of Maw Broon's very own cookbook, which we borrowed from the sideboard at No. 10 Glebe Street - first made for her by her mother-in-law when 'Maw' married 'Paw', and added-to over the years with recipes for every day and special days, from friends and neighbours and others that simply caught Maw's eye in "The Sunday Post", or cut-out of the back of a flour bag. These are the very recipes that became the favourite dishes of the whole extended family - Maw and Paw, Granpaw, Daphne, Horace, Joe, Maggie, Hen, the Twins and 'the bairn'.

There are some examples of the strip from years gone by that Maw must have clipped into her Cookbook - perhaps as reminders of special days. We've just left the 'bits and pieces' that you find tucked into a cookbook, exactly as we found them - stains and all.

We have sample pages from Maw Broon's Cookbook for you to download and print out - with Porridge, Stovies and Orange Marmalade, plus Hen Broon's heart-stopping breakfast recipe - only for special occasions!
