This New Book Explores the History and Unsung Regionality of Irish Cuisine

Irish food is too often maligned or thought of as Irish-American bar food like corned beef and cabbage. With his new book, The Irish Cookbook, Galway-based chef Jp McMahon aims to correct those misconceptions, offering up more than 500 recipes designed to showcase the oysters, fresh seafood, seaweed, lamb, pickles, cakes and pastries at the heart of Irish cuisine.
