A cult hit in the UK after a raft of enthusiastic endorsements from the likes of Nigella Lawson, this handsomely designed and photographed book features the recipes of Cherie Denham, born and raised in County Tyrone, who offers traditional baked goods and ingredients along with those featuring more modern elements. Supported by evocative photography from Andrew Montgomery and essays by Kitty Corrigan, The Irish Bakery reflects centuries of home baking, along with select accompanying dishes, such as the turkey soup that comes with the wheaten soda bread. Among the many recipes here: Fennel and sea salt oatcakes Cranberry and apricot lace biscuits Chicken and leek pie with shortcrust pastry Caraway seed cake Rhubarb upside-down cake with Seville orange glaze Chocolate, chestnut and whiskey tart with raspberries Along with the recipes and artisans The Irish Bakery features the voices of: Esther Marshall, Ann Byrne, Michelina Stacpoole, Maureen Delaney, Becky Cole, and Úna McDonagh all of whom recall their memories of growing up in an Irish kitchen. Fascinating and inspiring. Measurements are by weight in metric and Imperial. Hardcover. Color photographs throughout.
