Programme advertisement for the Cornish chemist T.B. Percy Ltd

Made: 1927

Record Number: HFC:2021:016

The advertisement promotes Percy's Rennet as 'the best rennet obatainable' to make an irresistable Junket with. Rennet is the enzyme obtained from a calf's stomach which is used in the cheesemaking process to coagulate milk and is the magic ingredient in Junket puddings. Although a dish savoured only for the well to do in medieval times, Junket had become a relatively cheap and accessible family staple by the 1920s.
