She pressed several buttons in the maddeningly confident way that all kids do and opened and an app called Cake Doodle...

O'Neill Foods Dry-cured Bacon and Ham


O'Neill's Foods
Author: Special Irish Foods & People Who Make Them
The excellent dry-cured bacon and ham produced in Co Wexford by O’Neill Foods was one of the winners at the 2011 Irish Food Writers’ Guild Food (IFWG) Awards. Having been born into a fairly small farm on the slopes of Slieve Bhuidhe, near Ferns in Co Wexford, where the family devoted some of the land to growing strawberries and raspberries that do so well in the sunny South-East, Pat O’Neill was initiated into hands-on high quality food production from an early age.

This Farming Life


Castlefarm - Cows
Author: Jenny Young
At Castlefarm the craziness of spring farming continues this month writes Jenny Young. We have 85 cows to milk twice a day and 32 calves to feed. We are still waiting for our last 16 spring cows to calve. We have 120 hens and 31 ducks to feed and their eggs to collect.

Grow It Yourself

Book Review - The Dubliner Diaries by Trevor White


The Dubliner Diaries by Trevor White
Author: Cookbook Reviews
As memories of the Celtic Tiger fade into the clouds of dirt it kicked up as it disappeared over the horizon, there’s a poignancy to reading Trevor White’s funny, perceptive, bitter-sweet diary of publishing his thinking person’s magazine, The Dubliner, through those crazy years. Trevor writes brilliantly and it’s a great read on all sorts of levels. And, while even the most energetic verbal gymnastics could hardly persuade anyone that this is a food book, it certainly has relevance to Irish hospitality.
