Excellent resource for Irish cooking
Published by Hmrday , 3 years ago
I got this book wanting to learn more about Irish cooking, food culture, and history and this book didn’t disappoint. It’s not a an in depth book mind you, it gently covers most topics but it does include info about regional foods, the history of food in Ireland, and how food was used and enjoyed there. It satisfied my hopes for this book. The recipes are great, some I won’t try (mussels, ew) but many that are now a staple in our house. Highly recommend if you want to start experimenting with Irish cooking!
An Irish masterclass of Food and Folklore - delicious!

Clare Connery has never lost touch with her roots in the countryside of the north of Ireland. Not for her the ephemeral fashion food fads which are here today and gone tonight! She chooses to concentrate on all that is good and wholesome from the land of green and plenty.Her first major book 'In an Irish country kitchen' is an outstanding work tracing the culinary history of Ireland set against the colourful social development of the island.It is Easy to read and beautifully illustrated.If you cannot travel to Ireland then read this book and you'll be transported there.'Irish Food and Folklore' is her third Irish book (she has other subjects close to her heart and her other books include a beautiful Salad book now also available in softback, and the very recent 'Vegetable Book').'Irish Food and Folklore' is a super introduction to the essence of Irish food. Read about the myths and legends that have contributed to many people's fascination with Ireland and try the many easy to follow traditional recipes which really do work!
