The Hungry Chorister Cookbook
 
"Boy Choristers' Tour Fund" Fundraising 
 

When trying to come up with fundraising ideas for the boys choir of Guildford Cathedral and thinking about the boys, one common theme came out.  This was their love of food and in particular chocolate. Therefore it seemed appropriate to try and come up with a book of recipes from the boys and their families and friends.  We have collected over 90 recipes, and the books are printed and selling well so place your order now before we run out and we will send it to you as soon as we can. 

 

 The book contains a wide variety of recipies, from quick and easy meals, ideal for after evensong on those cold winter evenings, to the more exotic such as Pheasant Breasts in London or Gibraltarian Paella.  Not surprisingly, however, the is a large quantity and variety of puddings, cakes and cookies many featuring that chorister favourite, chocolate!

 


 

"The Hungry Chorister" represents one of a chorister's great joys and sustainers - food! William Shakespeare recognised the importance of combining food with music when he wrote famously at the beginning of 'Twelfth night' - "If music be the food of love, play on...."
 
We hope that the contributions from our choristers and their friends and supporters will be as welcoming and inspiring as their music - and that you will be inspired to create great culinary masterpieces. Perhaps you will find your own 'food of love' within these pages....
 
Enjoy these recipes, and happy cooking!

Organist and Master of The Choristers, Guildford Cathedral
