Excellent Irish Cookbook

Quite simply, this is my favorite cookbook. I'm from Ireland so there is an element of bias but nevertheless you cannot beat Mrs Allen's simple advice such as how to roast meats properly and how to make the most of the subtle flavours that are inherently Irish. Furthermore, Myrtle Allen wrote beautifully. Her stories are very charming and I enjoy reading a few again each time I am cooking with this book. I can no longer pass a field of buttercups without a smile and a nod to this great woman.
