Book Synopsis

Theodora FitzGibbon's column in The Irish Times was once essential reading for anyone with an interest in cookery. Infused with wit, a lust for life, and a genuine love of good food, classic recipes like her Christmas Cake and Barm Brack became legendary and were well used in homes in Ireland and abroad for decades.

Now, Ireland's most exciting young food writer, Donal Skehan, discovers the art of Theodora in this beautiful new collection in which he selects her very best dishes and lovingly brings them to life through his glorious photography.

Life-long fans will be delighted with this replacement for their battered and much-used books (or ancient newspaper clippings), and a new generation of food lovers, just like Donal, will discover the delight of Theodora FitzGibbon for the very first time.
