All of these recipes use British Imperial measures, although a metric alternative are given. As the conversions used in the recipes are approximate, use either the metric or Imperial measures for each recipe; do not mix them.

Product Brand Names

Some of the recipes include brand names of products. These are all products available in the UK; I do not know what equivalent products may be available in other countries.
