School) by Glasgow citizens - and was put together by the school's staff to document the methods and recipes they taught in class. However, its reputation for dependable and economical recipes ensured that its influence spread far beyond the walls of the College. Its practical and reliable cookery advice became famous worldwide. Scottish mothers bought it for daughters and daughters-in-law, and it became an essential purchase for young brides and brides-to-be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The Purple Book\", as it was known to College staff and students, has gone through many revisions over the years. It has again been updated for the modern-day cook but its tried-and-tested favourites - such as Haggis, Pot Roast, Dutch Roast, Cheese Scones, Dundee Cake, Gingerbread and Shortbread - have been preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts practical approach to cooking delicious food on a budget is as relevant now as it ever was.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Waverley Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47049769517296,"sku":"9781849340038","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781849340038_p0.jpg?v=1763751968","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781849340038","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
