Clodagh's Irish Kitchen: A Fresh Take on Traditional Flavors

undefined

Review ------ If you've never delved into Irish cooking, Clodagh's Irish Kitchen is a great jumping point - it's incredibly compelling and you'll want to make everything in it! (Glamour Magazine, March 2015) This beautifully photographed cookbook has more than 300 pages with recipes, menus, and ideas for entertaining - each of which will leave you wanting nothing more than to head into your kitchen to start cooking. (www.thedailymeal.com, March 2015) McKenna, who owns two restaurants in Dublin, elevates everything from soda bread to lamb stew in a gorgeous new cookbook. [...] Photos of that coastline and the beautiful green hills are part of the cookbook's charm. The photos by Tara Fisher make you want to both eat and travel. [...] While the stars of the book are the 150 recipes, McKenna also writes beautifully about how the food culture is changing in Ireland. As is the case in America, farmers' markets are increasing in number and home cooks are swarming to them for fresh, local ingredients. Her vegetable and meat recipes shine. But the sweets are delectable, too. Her Guinness chocolate cake, with its caramel and coffee flavors, is rich and delicious.
