create your menus with the item factory (the tutorial has a section on that).
after gtk_init(), you need to read in the menu entries:
gtk_item_factory_parse_rc ("/home/anders/.myapp-menurc");
and upon program exit, e.g. after gtk_main() you need to dump the file again:
gtk_item_factory_dump_rc ("/home/anders/.myapp-menurc", NULL, TRUE);
