An authoritative and above all useful cookbook from New Zealand’s favourite broadcaster, featuring 180 trusted (and tested) recipes hand-picked from the thousands of delicious recipes that have featured on RNZ shows such as Nine to
Noon, Afternoons and Saturday Morning in recent decades.
The format is mapped to a day on air on RNZ: the recipes are in categories that take the user from morning to well into the night. Featuring recipes from key personalities from down the years – from Alison Holst and Julie Biuso to Martin
Bosley, Nadia Lim and Peter Gordon – it’s terrific way to track our food history.
With a rich essentials section plus radio and food key-moments timelines, The RNZ Cookbook connects the hundreds of thousands of kitchens around New Zealand
and abroad who turn to RNZ for direction on great food.
Afternoons host and foodie Jesse Mulligan provides the foreword.

The RNZ Cookbook
By David Cohen and Kathy Paterson
Review by Ray
What a delight! This recipe book is chock full of hand-selected recipes from the archives, and features work from many of the country’s best chefs. Each chapter is named after an RNZ programme, and features the kind of food you’d want to eat while listening in. Breakfast Dahl (from Foundation café at Tūranga!) with your Morning Report? Baked Kūmara Cheesecake for desert with Karyn Hay? Yes please. There are charming quotes dotted throughout from the interviews where these recipes were first shared, and there’s a wide variety, from quick and simple to quite challenging. It’s one to revisit again and again, finding new treasures each time, and would make a gorgeous gift for anyone who enjoys the radio on in the kitchen.
