Synopsis

This book features unpublished recipes from the frontline during the Second World War. Quirky cartoons and diagrams show how to build your oven and kitchen in the desert or in a dugout. From curries to cakes, Frontline Cookbook will help you feed your own "army," anywhere, anytime. According to Napoleon, an army marches on its stomach and it fights on its stomach too--yet have you ever wondered how hundreds of men on the frontline are fed amidst hails of bullets and how kitchens are created in the desert or in the trench lines? In 1941 the Army officially created the Army Catering Corps and opened the Army School of Cookery in Aldershot. Troops were trained to make meals out of the bare minimum of ingredients, to feed a company of men from only a mess tin and cook curries to feed hundreds only yards from the frontline. Frontline Cooking brings together recipes from the Second World War, including hand-written notes from troops fighting in the Middle East, India and all over Europe. Many recipes are illustrated with cartoons and drawings on how to assemble the perfect oven and kitchen tools at a moment's notice from nothing. This book is the perfect inspiration for those who like to create an amazing meal anywhere, anytime, from anything.
