My mother let out a huge secret of mine once - it was why I always won the Victoria Sponge category at the WI - it co-incided when we got turkey eggs - you make a sponge with turkey eggs and it'll be the lightest, fluffiest tastiest sponge you'll ever make. To try and placate me, she offered me her mother's christmas cake recipe, and was annoyed to find that I'd already got it and modified it! Our food has altered so much in the last 50 years, more imports and intensive growing - nothing tastes like it used to! I was oaning the other day about swedes I was making cornish pasties, swedes used to taste mustardy and hott-ish -now they taste of practically nothing, not good when trying to make a decent pastie!
we have a fruit cake recipe always referred to as 'capenhurst cake' due to a family member once working at the neuclear power station there, and obtaining the recipe from a colleague who use to bring in slices of said cake.
there are no recipes i wouldn't share, i'm always happy to pass on successful recipes to anyone who appreciates them.
