Oxo CookBook

Stephen, December 14, 2010January 26, 2016

The famous OXO cube was launched in 1910 by the Gunther Family from their Tongswood Estate in Hawkhurst, Kent (now occupied by St. Ronan’s School).

Charles Gunther took over the reins of OXO (then Liebig’s Extract of Meat Company Ltd.) in 1895 and immediately embarked on a quest to bring the nutritional benefits of beef to everyone in the form of a product that could be sold for a penny. In 1910, the OXO cube was born and the product evolved to become one of the most recognised and well loved brands in the UK.

To celebrate the centenary of the OXO Cube, The Jempson Foundation proudly offered its support to the publication of a limited edition OXO CookBook with recipes and stories based around the iconic beef stock cube, which was produced in association of The Hawkhurst Community Partnership – www.visithawkhurst.org.uk

Due to its popularity and limited nature, there are no further CookBooks available so you can download a copy here – Hawkhurst Cooks with OXO
