So I stumbled across this new cook book and its called The Credit Crunch Cook Book.  To me, it sounds great in principle, but I can’t understand how the content will be any different than that of a normal cook book, unless it makes such suggestions as:

  • During the winter, store all refrigerated items outside.
  • To save on ingredients, only cook half!
  • etc etc

Personally, I believe cooking recipes from scratch is the cheapest way to cook, if you want to save money, change where you shop and cook from scratch.  As I believe cooking a recipe from a bog standard recipe book will be just as cost effective as from this book.  I shouldn’t really comment yet as its not published so I could end up eating my words (a very cost effective meal!!!).  But I will keep you posted.
