“Grandma’s pavlova is my base recipe, although I might change it a bit. Last Christmas I made my favourite variation — I substituted rosewater for the vanilla and raspberry vinegar for the white vinegar. I feel very connected to Grandma when I cook, especially if I’m making one of her recipes.” - Kathryn Vincent
