彼の叔母が残した本が　手書きだったということです

In 2009, a visitor to Audley End recognised the name of the house and remembered that

これらの材料で作ります

Anyway, as it's so hot I think it would be nice for the family to have cucumber ice cream

エイヴィス・クロークンの料理の腕前は ご覧のように抜群です

with their dinner. And to make it you will need.

様々なレシピがありますが、蒸し料理をたのしんで 作ることに　お気づきでは

Avis Crocombe was clearly a very versatile cook, there are all sorts of different types

スエット（油脂）プディング、ビスケットプディング、ケーキプディング

of recipe here. But you get the sense that she really enjoyed cooking puddings. There

彼女がここに　括弧で（とても良き）と書いた カスタードプディング

わたしたちはエイヴィス・クロークンが　１３歳の頃 家政婦として働いていたと知りました

for custard pudding which she was obviously very pleased with as she's written in brackets

最初に彼女は　デボン州　兄弟の農家で使用人として

afterwards 'Very Good'.

２０代前半　ロンドン シドニー子爵の所有する別邸で働いてました

We were able to discover that Avis Crocombe had actually worked in domestic service since

最初にりんごの皮をむき　芯を取り 低糖のシロップで弱火で煮込みます

she was thirteen years old. First as a servant at her brothers farmhouse in Devon, and then

３０代のエイヴィス・クロークンは　ノーフォーク州　Langley Hallで料理人の家政婦として働いていました

in her early twenties in a London townhouse belonging to the Viscount Sidney.

two laundry maids working under her.

So join us at Audley End where these stories really come to life.

And there you have it, Apple Hedgehog. A jolly autumnal dish.
