The Morningside Umbrella Festival Recipe Book – We have received a fabulous suggestion to compile a Morningside Umbrella Festival Recipe book, and with your help would like to try and have something produced to sell at our Festival. We hope to have 50 of your favourite recipes with a couple of sentences explaining why you have chosen to share your recipe. You are welcome to submit more than one recipe but depending on submissions it may be necessary to limit to one per person. If, we receive more than one recipe for the same or very similar item you may be asked to submit a different recipe. It would be great to have an equal number of recipes from both men and women. Younger bakers are also welcome to submit a recipe. If you are keen to be part of this project, please ask me to reserve you a page. You should then submit your recipe in a typed word format with ingredients in metric to kerryelgey@hotmail.co.uk by the 23rd of April 2026.
For further information about any of the above please contact Kerr Watt on 07530 971367 or email kerryelgey@hotmail.co.uk
