Hi Meghan – that would be great!

David McCallum’s Irish Stew
Lynn Redgrave’s Kedgeree
Hope 3 is not too many….. We know this is supposed to be about Murder, She Wrote, but we want to do our own little tribute to The Man from UNCLE by making Napoleon Solo’s and Illya Kuryakin’s recipes. Plus, we love kedgeree and are eager to see Lynn’s take on it.
Cheers,
S and K

Hi! Can I please request Karen Black’s 10 Tomato Beef Chinese recipe if it hasn’t already been taken? I saw your talk about your last book in Southend last year and am inspired to try making a dish this time around!!
Hi Sophia – oh how lovely that you were at my Southend talk! I had so much fun that day, it really was a fab audience. So pleased you want to join in with the cookalong and the Karen Black’s recipe is YOURS! I’ll send it over to you very soon – Jenny x
Hey Jenny, wow! What a fab idea but what a huge list of recipes!
It was so hard to choose but in the end, the call of chocolate, chocolate, chocolate cake was too hard to resist. But if anyone else wants it I’m also happy to do the gazpacho or the Golden Potato Salad.
Taryn
xx
Taryn! Soooooo pleased you are joining in. Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate cake DEFINITELY has your name on it! Might take you up on the gazpacho and/or Golden Potato Salad at a later date but for now, get ready for CHOCOLATE OVERLOAD! Will be sending out the recipes very soon x
Hey Jenny,
Not sure if you got my other response?
A wonderful idea and best of luck with the book!
The Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate cake was calling my name but equally happy to test out the gazpacho or the golden potato salad!
Taryn
xx
I’d love to make June Allyson’s Beef Stew a la Dick Powell. 🙂
Hi Jenny,
Last night I requested ‘Karen Black’s 10-Tomato-Beef-Chinese Number’ but I’m not sure if my comment went through (or it’s just hidden until approval) – I was looking at the website on my phone – so I’m just posting again to be on the safe side!
Best Wishes, Sophia
Boy, this sure sounds like fun I’ll take Deidre Hall’s Strawberry Cheese Pie for my recipe
Thanks so much for joining in Bethany, I’ve sent the recipe over, it sounds fab!
Hi, I’ve gotta do the Gloria DeHaven Slumgullion!!!!!
Annette! The Slumgullion is yours, I am resisting the temptation to google slumgullion, I have NO IDEA what it is! I’ll get the recipe over to your really soon xx
Well I’m torn between going with a recipe based purely on it having a rude name (Jane Powell’s Saucy Pigs) or Joe Santos’ One Hot Italian Night because he sounds like a suave felly. Or do I go for Kathryn Grayson’s Baked Alaska as I’ve just eaten one in Austria and it was delicious, or David Soul’s China’s Snowballs because I’ve met him and he was a bit of a dish for an older man.
Could you send me any or all of those please Ms Artichoke. Ta very much. x
Haha! Trust you Cotter! One Hot Italian Night and China’s Snowballs have already been nabbed for the cookalong but I’ll send you all four anyhow for your recipe collection. See which you like best out of the Saucy Pigs and the Baked Alaska for the cookalong.
TELL ME ALL about when you met David Soul!
Cotter! Saucy Pigs have just been taken – I’m putting you down for the Baked Alaska. You are one of the few people I know who could tackle such a thing with aplomb!
I look forward to the challenge!
Send PIX!!!!
So much to choose fromm, I wish you could choose more than one, but I’ll do Jane Powell’s Saucy Pigs 🙂
Yay! The Saucy Pigs are yours Karen – the recipe will be coming to you soon! Must be good with a title like that!
If they are still available could I take:
– Angela Landsbury’s Angel Hair Pasta with Fresh Summer Tomatoes
– Dack Rambo’s Lemon Supreme
Can you tell I’m already feelin the summer vibes!
Tracy! Thanks for joining in the cookalong! Summer is coming for sure! I’ll send over the recipes soon. I’ve allocated you the Lemon Supreme for the cookalong but feel free to try both!

Aw thanks Beth! The Peanut Butter Cookies are YOURS! Will send you the recipe early next week. MMMMmmmmm peanut butter cookies – yum!
Hi Jenny, I see that my recipe is marked green as sent but I have scoured my email boxes and can’t find it. It’s very easy to miss my middle “C” initial in my email address– perhaps this is what happened?

Oh WOW Coral-Lea! I am so excited that you are joining us for the Cookalong. Your son is a GENIUS! I went to my first Solvealongamurdershewrote on Wednesday and was HOWLING with laughter at his antics! I wills end over Jamie’s recipe very soon! Jenny x
Hi there,
what a wonderful idea. Only downside is that we can only pick one recipe. I found so many I would love to try…but I settled for Efrem Zimbalist Jr.’s Meatless Casserole, if still available!
Hi Sam! I know, choosing just one is difficult eh?! I will send over Efrem’s recipe soon – it’s a weird one so feel free to choose again if you look at it and think, “WHAT ON EARTH?!” Jenny x
Totally a “WHAT ON EARTH” reaction 😀
If anyone happens to know what “canned vegetable protein dinner cuts” are then please do share your wisdom!
I will give it a go but since it might be more of a new creation, how about you assign any vegetarian or vegan recipe to me…just to be on the safe side 😀
Haha – sure thing Sam, bear with me, I’ll see what other veggie/vegan recipes are still in the mix xx
Amazing! Could I please try Yvonne de Carol’s Salome Salad? That would make my spooky heart very happy. <3 – Anna
HAHA! Yes of course Anna, I seem to remember this being delicious…
https://www.silverscreensuppers.com/yvonne-de-carlo/yvonne-de-carlos-salome-salad
Recipe will be coming to you soon xx
When do we get the recipes?
Not that I am impatient but you scared me a little with Efrem’s recipe and my veto option 😀
Coming atcha right now Sam! Be afraid, be very afraid!!!
Your son is a genius indeed who brings so much joy to so many people. My wife and I went to two of his shows and can’t wait for the next show on September 5th.
Thank you so much for Tim, Coral-Lea <3
I second that emotion Sam!
Is Sharon Acker’s Oatmeal Crisps still available? I would love to claim it if it is.

Hi. I love you’re blog, and I would love to try cooking George Segal’s Chicken Paprika. n_n
Yay! Thanks for joining in Kate – I’ll send George’s recipe over to you soon – Jenny x
Hi! I just stumbled across your site and am so excited – I love Murder She Wrote SO much! I was looking through the list and wondered about a couple of recipes that are featured in episodes of the show that I didn’t see mentioned but think would be kind of perfect – a seafood chowder (featured in Who Threw the Barbitals in Mrs Fletcher’s Chowder), and an apple pie (Seth and Mort are often over at Jessica’s for pie)! So much fun!
Hi Sherrie – thanks for those suggestions, there will be recipes for seafood chowder and apple pie in the book but the book is really focused on recipes are favourites of the movie stars who appeared in the show. I’ll send over the Apple Crisp recipe to you very soon! Thanks for volunteering! Jx
If neither of those are options, and I’m not too late, I’d be happy to make Susan Anton’s Apple Crisp!
Hi there! I just stumbled across this, fashionably late, as always! Is there still time to register?! If so, I’d love to make ‘Kathleen Beller’s Apple Pie with Cheese Crust’. It’s apple season around these parts! Thanks!
Sure thing Katy! I will send the recipe over as soon as I can – thanks for volunteering! Jx
I love Mariette Hartley–I’ll try her recipe for Chicken Wonderful!!
Sure thing Leila – I’ll send the recipe to you as soon as I can. Thanks for volunteering – Jenny x
Hi Jenny, I’d love to put my hand up for Gerald O’Loughlin’s easy Texas hash, and if it’s not too greedy, Lynda Day George’s fresh peach omelet as well. I’m so excited to be a part of this wonderful project! 😀 Cheers, Alison
Hi Alison – thanks so much for volunteering! I’m happy for you to test both of those recipes and they will be winging their way to you sometime in the next few days – JX
If it’s not gone already I would like to try Tige Andrews’ Riz-Norma – if only to find out what it is
Harry! The Tige Andrews recipe will be winging its way to you soon. It’s ages since I looked at it so it will be as much as a delight to find out what it is for me, as it will be for you!! JX
Hi from Berlin, Julia Campbell’s Spicy Black Beans attracts our attention. Is it without meat? Then we would be happy to test it.
Hi Linda in Berlin! Yes, it’s a veggie recipe – whoopeeeee! I will send it over to you sometime in the next couple of days, thanks for volunteering! Jenny in London xx

Hi Jenny,
Please can we try ‘Courteney Cox’s Currant Scones’?
– The Jones Family
Sure thing Gavin! The recipe is yours and I will send it over to you very soon – Jenny x
Thanks!
Hello hello! I am very interested in test cooking Angela Lansbury’s “Jessica’s Cheesecake” if it is still available! Who doesn’t love cheesecake?
(I tried to request it last night, but I’m unsure if I clicked submit. If I did request and this is a repeat tis better to have requested twice than never at all!)
Oh, and just yesterday I recommended your site to my mother-in-law, who loves classic cooking as much as I do! 🙂
Yay! Hoorah Phoenix! Thank-you so much for the recommendation and thanks a million for volunteering to test the Angela Lansbury Cheesecake recipe. Sending this to you very soon. I LOVE CHEESECAKE TOO – and this is a great cheesecake recipe for sure. Jxx
Hi there, just found your website courtesy of Dinner is Served 1972. I’ll probably go down a rabbit hole reading all your fun posts! Anyway, I would love to take Dack Rambo’s Lemon Supreme if it’s still up for grabs!
Wonderful! Thanks Chris, I am a Dinner is Served 1972 superfan! Yes, Dack’s Lemon Supreme is yours for the testing. I will send you the recipe later today, thanks a million for volunteering – Jenny x
Found your website via Instagram and fallen down a rabbit hole! I’d love to test cook something – Louis Herthum’s Cajun Red Beans and Rice?
Yay Catherine, welcome to my warren! The Louis Herthum recipe is yours! I shall send it over to you shortly – Jenny x
Found you through the Home Sweet Home Blogathon announcement and just wanted to say I am super excited for your cookbook!
Aww thanks a million! I am excited about it too, it’s so much fun to write. Can I tempt you to test cook something?! Haha – I am so pushy! JX
Hello! This is such a fun idea, and it’s fantastic you’re open to testers from all around! I’d be willing to test Hope Lange’s Cheese Ribbon Sandwich and/or Gloria Stuart’s Brownies.
I’m nearly sure I can manage a cheese sandwich recipe…
Haha – thanks VT! Will send these recipes over to you soon so you can have a peruse. This cheese sandwich is no ordinary sandwich – haha!
I look forward to seeing everything whenever you’re able to send them along.
I just hope that me and my small town grocery store will be up to the challenge of an extra-ordinary sandwich!
I cannot wait to see what you manage to score at your small town grocery store for the ribbon sandwich!
I would love to see recipes for the dishes mentioned at the beginning of s05e13 – Fire Burn, Cauldron Bubble.
“Molly’s making brownies, Dora Prouty’s tuna-noodle bake, uh, your seafood-rice dish and Mildred’s pigs-in-blankets.”
I’m most interested in Dora Prouty’s tuna-noodle bake and the seafood-rice dish.
Hi there and thanks for dropping by! Oh how I would love the recipe for Dora Prouty’s tuna-noodle bake too! The recipes I’m including in the Murder, She Cooked book will all (apart from one) be recipes that the actors and actresses supplied to cookbooks and magazines as their favourite things to make. For Fire Burn, Cauldron Bubble the recipe will be Roddy McDowall’s poached pears. Here’s a tiny preview of something I wrote for this episode guide, “We get a hint about one of Jessica’s signature dishes at the beginning of this episode as we hear that she’ll be taking her “Seafood Rice Dish” for the Garden Club’s Casserole Dinner. So if you have a Seafood Rice Dish recipe up your sleeve, why not rustle that up to have before Roddy’s poached pears?” Ooh, just writing this is making me hungry. The one dish that isn’t officially a favourite of one of the stars of the show I’ll be including is an imagining of how Jessica might have made her signature clam chowder x
I can’t wait for the clam chowder recipe. I’ll have to keep looking for the others. I can’t wait for the cookbook to come out!
Aww, thanks! It’ll be a while but it will happen!
Oh my, what is this I see? A blueberry pancake recipe? Me! Me!
I’d also be interested in testing the creole rice recipe!
Hurrah VT! Those two recipes will be winging their way to you very soon! JX
Do you still need someone to test the avocado-sauerkraut recipe? I could give that a try.
Also, would it be possible for you to send me the soup recipe from Frank Lovejoy?
Yay! Brilliant, thanks VT. Will send those recipes over to you very soon xx
I am now waiting for an avocado to ripen on my counter.
And the Frank Lovejoy recipe, my gosh. It is not so delicious, is it?! Not even after I added a bunch of stuff to it!
But it was cheap!
And interesting, in a slightly terrifying way.
Haha, I should have asked you to test the Frank Lovejoy recipe for the Vincent Price book, VT. “Interesting, in a slightly terrifying way.” is the perfect summing up for that recipe! Hope that you enjoy the avocado with sauerkraut – it’s become quite a favourite at my place for a quick and delicious working from home lunch xx
Are you still looking for someone else to test the Greg Morris chicken? I could probably do that!
Oooh, yes please, VT! Fabulous, I’ll send over the recipe and feedback form xx
