Gwyneth is seeking recipes with stories for new cookbook in aid of Moya Cole Hospice
Gwyneth Roper aims to publish the cookbook down the line, featuring recipes with fond stories behind them
Gwyneth Roper is asking the community to put their MasterChef hats on and to send their best recipes to be featured in an upcoming cookbook in aid of Moya Cole Hospice.
The recipes can come from anyone, far and wide but they must have a story with them. Did you learn the recipe from a loved one? Is it your favourite meal your nan used to make when you were young? Any story counts as long as it comes with a recipe!
Gwyneth has started off by including a recipe called ‘Mommy Cake’, a sultana fruit loaf that Gwyneth’s brother used to ask for when he was in the Christie hospital receiving chemotherapy. The cake brought him some everyday normality, and he is now fit and healthy, enjoying ‘Mommy Cake’ at home.
The recipes can be savoury or sweet, starters, mains, or desserts. All you need to do is write down the recipe (including ingredients), take a lovely picture of your fine dish, and send it to Gwyneth at gwyneth.roper1@btinternet.com.
I’m also on the lookout for someone to write a foreword for the cookbook. I’ve even written a letter to the King! I plan on sending it to see if he or someone from his household would kindly write a foreword for our cookbook and the fantastic cause that it is going towards Gwyneth Roper, Volunteer at Moya Cole Hospice
“I look forward to reading and trying all of these lovely recipes that I get sent in. I have volunteered at Moya Cole Hospice as a complementary therapist, and I see first-hand what a worthy cause the hospice is,” she added.
Even if you don’t have a recipe, but you know someone who can put together a mouth-watering dish, why not give them a nudge to have their recipe included amongst the other delectable dishes in Gwyneth’s cookbook?
For more information, please get in touch with Gwyneth at the email address above.
More information on publication will come down the line, but for now, get cooking!
