As a single mother to her son Steven, she has at times struggled to make ends meet, especially when he was young and she could only work part-time. With a limited income, but determined that they should both eat good, nutritious food, she learned how to shop, cook, bake, and eat on a tight budget. This included making savings on ingredients and cooking equipment, devising clever, thrifty recipes, planning weekly menus, and running her oven as efficiently as possible to save on energy bills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the process, Hermine has developed a wide-ranging ethos for baking on a budget—a set of values, habits, and skills that have at their heart a belief that we can all eat flavourful, nutritious food without spending a fortune on ingredients and energy. And crucially, also the knowledge that making our own bakes—whether that's bread, pies, quiches, desserts, cakes, or snacks—can save us considerable sums when times are tough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHermine would now like to share everything she's learned about baking on a budget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46998761472236,"sku":"9780711287488","price":45.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/6261493482441.jpg?v=1763230930"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/hermine-dossou.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
