Unexpected discovery is part of the pleasure… | Cork Independent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I visited my grandmother often when she was still alive. She had a vast knowledge of the most weirdest facts, especially anything kitchen or food related. When I was a kid, I remember scramming through a box with recipe cards. It was a subscription recipe collection which came in the post every month. A pack of recipes with a mix of cooking, baking, preserving etc. And her box was almost full. Did she use any of these recipes? Absolutely not as she understood cooking better than some of the food
Save the rural pub! | Cork Independent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There was a time when the pubs in Ireland were almost an extension of the sitting room. You knew who would be sitting at the counter, who would wander in around six o'clock and who would say they were only staying for one drink and never did.

Give me a beautiful room, a pot of interesting tea, little sandwiches, exquisite pastries and a few hours where nobody expects me to be anywhere else and I am a very happy woman. I particularly love afternoon tea in London, where the whole experience has become something of a ritual. Afternoon tea at Adare Manor was on my list of things I wanted to experience this year. So last Saturday, my friend Judy and I made the trip to Adare. Adare itself is a pic
Kitchens of my life | Cork Independent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
'In the Kitchen (Essays on food and life)â is a collection of short stories by different writers about food memories. Rachel Coddy is recalling her life on the cookers she had throughout her life. It got me thinking, not so much about the cookers I had (and there were many) but the kitchens I have lived and loved over the years, beginning with the first kitchen I can remember, my childhood kitchen. It was not particularly big, mainly due to the massive wood-fired stove made of bricks and a cas
