Welcome back to the Cookery Calendar Challenge. After a break of a few months, the Cookery Calendar Challenge is back for 2018, and this time anything goes, meals, cakes, bakes, and preserves, are included.
Everyone is welcome, and if you would like to join this month, you will find all the details you need on the Cookery Calendar Challenge page.
As the Cookery Calendar Challenge has been absent for a few months, I do not have any new recipes to share from last month, so will instead announce my chosen book for February, which is The Breakfast Book by Dorset Cereals. I have cooked from this book several times in the past, but recently Isaac and I have looked through it together and have earmarked a few nice looking recipes to try.
I do hope you decide to join me this month, and if you do, it couldn't be easier.
This is an ongoing project, so it is never too late to get involved, and everyone is very welcome.
The challenge is simple: the first week of every month, select a cookery book from your shelf, and cook two new recipes from it. The recipes can be for anything: main meal, a cake or bake, a preserve, anything at all which uses a recipe that is new to you.
If you haven't taken a photograph of the dish, don't worry, you can still describe it, and let everyone know how it worked out. Similarly, you are welcome to share a recipe if you wish, but there is no pressure to do so. This project is more about the process of reconnecting with your cookery book collection, than about recipe sharing or food photography.
At the beginning of the following month, blog about the book and recipes you have used, and announce your chosen cookery book for the month ahead. Add your post to the linky on my blog, to allow others to see what you have made.
I would appreciate a link back to this Cookery Calendar Challenge post in your post.
There is also a Cookery Calendar Challenge badge to display on your blog too, if you like (just copy and paste the code on to your dashboard). You can also join via Instagram using hashtag #cookerycalendarchallenge (you will find me on Instagram @penny.homemadeheart )
All this information is also on the Cookery Calendar Challenge page, should you wish to check anything in more detail, or of course you are welcome to message me also.
