The Kylemore Abbey Cookbook
Edited by Gill & Macmillan
Kylemore Abbey is a magnificent turreted castle set in the lush Connemara hills. It is the most photographed tourist attraction in Ireland. The Benedictine Nuns took it over in 1920, and since then have built up a fine tradition of hospitality, with wonderful produce from their farm and with delicious, wholesome dishes from their kitchen. This collection of recipes both old and new, reflects today's changing tastes and lifestyles - from Micaelmas goose with potato stuffing to gooseberries poached in elderflower juice!

Ration Book Cookery
by Loyd Grossman Gill Corbishley & Emily Allison
Rationing was introduced into Britain and Ireland in the early years of the Second World War and lasted for nearly a decade after it was over. Rural Ireland was fortunate in that it could rely on home-grown meat and vegetables to provide most of the meals. But there were shortages of “luxuries” like tea and sugar. Illustrated with colour and black & white photographs as well as many contemporary advertisements, the book provides a true taste of the time. Adapterd from an editorial review on amazon.
