The paperback edition of Ruth’s third cookery book, Something for the Weekend, was published by Quadrille. Its USP is that all the recipes are for eight as most cookery books publish recipes for 4-6, not very helpful if you’re having a group of friends or family around for lunch or dinner. Starters are bought-in, throw together dishes (NOT cheating, just using good ingredients and shopping sensibly), and main courses are grouped under headings such as Urban Peasant Food or Big Roasts. An entire chapter is devoted to side orders and two chapters to desserts, one mirroring the easily assembled starters, and one containing full-blown recipes for favourite puddings, such as New York baked cheesecake, bitter chocolate tart, rhubarb fool pavlova, apple pie and frangipane tart.
