Inhaltsangabe

Irish Traditional Cooking combines the delicious, historic recipes of Ireland with colourful anecdotes and detailed appreciation of the dishes in Ireland’s culture. Imbued with a passion to preserve the traditions of Irish cooking, Darina Allen has journeyed all over Ireland, researching and recording different recipes and regional dishes. From County Cork where she learnt from Joan Twomey how to cook apple cake in a bastible on an open fire, to County Kerry, where she collected bairneachs (limpets) off the rocks to make the traditional Good Friday soup, to Granny Toye in County Monaghan who passed on eighty years of pancake-making experience.

Ireland's rich culinary heritage is brought to life in this comprehensive and entertaining appreciation of more than 300 traditional dishes. Each recipe is complemented by tips, tales, historical insights and common Irish customs, many of which have been passed down from one generation to the next through the greatest of oral traditions. Darina's fascination with Ireland's culinary heritage gives great detail and breadth to Irish Traditional Cooking. Sections on Broths & Soups, Fish, Game, Vegetables and Food from the Wild illustrate how comprehensive this book is in its treatment of Irish Traditional Cooking. Darina uses the finest of Ireland's natural produce to give us recipes such as Sea Spinach Soup, Ballymaloe Irish Stew and traditional Irish Sherry Trifle. The result is a book which will entice you to discover the pleasures of the emerald isle's cuisine. Irish Traditional Cooking won the acclaimed Langhe Ceretto-SEI prize.
