The "Classic & Modern New Zealand Cooking" book was created by Silvia Kuhn and Josie Haines in 2010.

Printed in New Zealand, the book contains 28 delicious recipes inspired by local New Zealand produce and both traditional and modern cuisines, spiced with exciting new ideas and interesting facts.  The recipes are easy to make and great to enjoy with friends and family.

"Classic and Modern New Zealand Cooking" fills a gap in the market for a small, lightweight cookbook that can easily be shipped and that contains the type of recipes that New Zealand people use in everyday life.  It would be ideal for kids going flatting or off to university,and to send to loved ones in other lands.
