Another Free Recipe Book (Odlums)

From here:

Email us the barcode number of any Odlums Product and we'll send you a FREE recipe book. (As it's in book form please enclose postal address).

As it happens I picked a bag of their product up in Tescos the other day so that was nice.....


Barcode:5011040019551

Now it doesn't say Ireland only - but it might obviously be restricted.....

  • It arrived this morning! Can't argue with that turnaround. Nice A5 sort of book. Will have to have a nose through it when I get a chance :)

    Edit:

    Right well a little more about it.....

    It's 32 pages in a stiffback slightly-smaller-than-A5 format. Opens with some introduction and a bit about methods and terms (so you can learn what stirring is etc). A couple of pages of handy tips (about what to do if you run out of SR flour and only have plain), a couple of pages on "what went wrong?" to help you diagnose where you went wrong.

    14 recipes followed by a few pages of blank space for you to jot down a few of your own.

    Last page has some handy websites on - some with more recipes :D

    https://www.odlums.ie
    https://www.bim.ie (Irish Fisheries Board)
    https://www.bordbia.ie (Irish Food Board)
    https://www.ndc.ie (National Dairy Council of Ireland)
    https://www.cakebox.ie
    https://www.cookingisfun.ie

    So not many recipes at all - but all for free :D

    All I have to confirm now is what "bread soda" is (either baking soda or baking powder - but not sure which) - I know it's not "Soda Bread" (though Odlums do a Soda Bread mix which is yummy)

  • has anyone had any issues when ordering the book. Would the company not recognise very quickly that the same barcode is being used.

  • Can't see why - thousands of people must pass by their products on the shelf in the one branch of Tescos that I got mine from....
