Thrifty Cookery Book

DHI’s clients and staff have produced the Bath Thrifty Cookery Book, an enticing recipe collection with broad appeal for everybody, from those who claim to be unable to boil an egg to wannabe Michelin star holders.

The book has 30 recipes from DHI’s clients and staff, a local food writer and head chefs at leading local restaurants. The chefs include Michelin-starred Bath Priory chef Michael Caines MBE, Gideon Hitchin from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s River Cottage Canteen and Jamie Oliver's mentor Gennaro Contaldo. (The restaurants feature on the Bath-specific foodie website www.ThePigGuide.com). The pdf above shows a few pages of this publication.

None of the ingredients in any of the recipes cost more than £5, and they’ve all been tested and approved at special ‘cook-a-thons’ organised by DHI. Recipes from DHI clients include Regan Moyle’s 'Rehashed Jackets', Steve Woods' 'Misshapen Bacon Risotto' and Bridget's 'Peachoffee Pie'.

If you would like to buy a copy of the Bath Thrifty Cookery Book you can call in to our reception at our offices in 15-16 Milsom Street, Bath BA1 1DE, or send us a cheque for £5.99 (£4.99 plus £1 postage and packaging) made out to ‘DHI’.
