An entertaining and informative history of New Zealand kitchens and cookery, told through artifacts, gadgets and ephemera that tell a story that goes deeper than the objects themselves.


This is not a cookbook, but it is a book about cooking.

It's a rummage through New Zealand's culinary past via a hundred everyday objects from the Kiwi kitchen. It's a fossick through the pantries and cake tins and drawers of our heritage. There are delicious morsels of trivia, failed attempts to revolutionise everyday tasks, and the odd (really very odd) mousetrap. Read about the food trends, garnishes, gadgets, appliances and of course, cookbooks and the fascinating people who wrote them.

Illustrated with quirky line drawings and written by the team that brought you Kiwi Country - Te Radar and Ruth Spencer.
