The Best of Irish Country Cooking

100 traditional recipes with historical information and beautiful landscape photography. Ireland’s rich culinary heritage is being rediscovered. Irish food has always been thought of as rustic and filling—hearty comfort food to get you through a cold winter—but a new strand of cooking is emerging, still based on Ireland’s rural heritage and favorite ingredients, but with a modern twist. A new wave of artisanal producers is bringing a variety of high-quality ingredients to a wider market—from the freshest wild salmon and oysters to award-winning marsh-fed lamb, farmhouse cheeses, and whiskey. Delis, supermarkets, and gourmet food stores around the world are stocking and celebrating Irish fare for the first time, and the movement for seasonal Irish home cooking is gaining momentum. Written by accomplished Irish food writer Nuala Cullen, The Best of Irish Country Cooking takes a new look at traditional Irish fare. It is filled with mouthwatering, user-friendly recipes.  Hardcover. 176 pages.
