No matter where they call home, or what language they speak, the Celtic peoples of the world are inextricably linked, spiritually, emotionally, intellectually and artistically. And, as this gorgeous book shows, the commonality extends to the look of the land, the great influence of the sea, and the food and drink on the table. Some of the world's most vibrant and innovative food emanates from these countries. At a time when soul-stirring Celtic dance, song, and ritual are stirring spirits anew with timeless passion and imagery, the food and drink of the diverse yet similar family of Celtic nations - Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Brittany, Galicia, the Isle of Man, and Canada's Cape Breton - has come into its own. The food found within these pages is not exclusively old world, nor exclusively modern, but includes recipes and ideas inspired by both. Each recipe is matched with a wine, single malt, cider, or brew from the best these countries have to offer.
From Scottish highland lodges to the sophisticated restaurants of Dublin and Belfast, from quaint coastal restaurants in Brittany to vibrant, modern dining rooms in Spain's Galacia, discover food and cooking styles that are goining recognition and respect as both are showcased in a brilliant, thoroughly new light.
