Vincent Price's Treasury of Great Recipes

A video walkthrough and some extra recipes

For all you fans of the Vincent Price Cucumber Crocodile, here’s another for you. Lucy Cotter made this one for her book group - the lucky fellows! That is one hellova LOADED croc!

The closing date for the chessboard cheeseboard competition has been extended because of Thanksgiving - it’s now 8th December. Get creative with cheese my chums! Don’t worry if you don’t have fancy cocktail picks, just bung some stuff on ordinary cocktail sticks!

A reminder that you can watch The Raven with myself and Vincent Price expert Peter Fuller this Sunday, wherever you are in the world.

We’ll gather in the Dinner and a Movie chatroom at 7 pm (click on the button below to access) and I will countdown to press play.

As many of you will know, Vincent wrote several cookbooks, the most majestic of which is A Treasury of Great Recipes. I pulled my original copy off the shelf to show you the splendour and chat about my favourite recipes from the book. I hope you’ll enjoy this little walk-through - the video is just over 15 minutes long.
