Dame Alison has become a NZ icon and this book gives us her early history. Very insightful to the changing food eating of New Zealanders.
Dame Alison Holst holds more titles than her damehood suggests: she's been invariably described as ‘Mother of the Nation’, ‘Queen of the Kitchen’ and ‘a groundbreaker in the culinary world’.
In the sixties, Dame Alison singlehandedly changed the way women prepared food for their families with her legendary television programme ‘Here's How’. She went on to become a prodigious fund-raiser for Plunkett, the chocolate-coated voice of radio, author of a hundred bestselling cookbooks, a successful business brand, as well as our favourite promoter of New Zealand products overseas.
In A Home-grown Cook, Alison Holst's fascinating memoir unfolds with the characteristic charm and calm spirit that is so familiar to us all. From a modest upbringing in Dunedin to becoming one of our most endearing Kiwi icons, A Home-gown Cook brilliantly captures Dame Alison's distinctive voice on every page.
