Desserts – Cookery Course

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaNovember 6, 2012Leave a comment

Ahhhh desserts, the crowning end to a lovely dinner. Most people – and most chefs when it comes to that – are afraid or not comfortable to make desserts. You don’t have to be a pastry chef to make some lovely desserts but you need to keep some rules in mind: Stick to the recipe…

Vegetarian Main Course – Cookery Class

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 31, 2012Leave a comment

Cooking for vegetarians can be a challenge especially if you want to impress them at a dinner party. Most people only think of vegetables as a side dish rather than a main course. And most restaurants and hotels don’t really cater for vegetarian other than the odd goats cheese tart and chargrilled vegetables and most…

Tomatoes Tomatoes Tomatoes

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 25, 2012Leave a comment

Have you ever heard people of an certain age saying ‘Tomatoes just don’t taste like tomatoes anymore’…… well, they won’t be growing their own. There is nothing more satisfying and tasty and to pick a tomato straight from the vine and take a bite. Nothing else is needed, no salt no nothing – just savour…

The Meat Course – Cookery Class

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 24, 2012Leave a comment

The main course is always the highlight and the one course you will be really measured on by your guests. It not only has to taste fantastic but also needs to look stunning. You can of course stick to the good old favourites but why not push the boat out a bit. I always like…

The Fish Course – Cookery Class

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 17, 2012Leave a comment

Fish is a lovely change to the usual meat or chicken. It is mostly quick to prepare but timing can be a devil. A few seconds too long in the oven/pan can dry the fish out completely. Most fish dishes need to be cooked just before serving – so best here to have everything laid…

A good heart is hard to find

Couldn’t stop myself with the pun (see here) It is not often that Mr T and myself are going to town but last Saturday was such a day. We had a lovely breakfast in Nash19 – delicious by the way – and strolled through town. The English Market is always a must when in town…

Toonbridge Dairy in Macroom

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 12, 2012Leave a comment

Display of cakes A few weeks back, Toonbridge Dairy opened their cafe next to their dairy in Toonbridge, Macroom. And since I was heading to the Macroom Food Festival anyway, thought it the best opportunity to pay them a visit. The cafe is nestled nicely between the dairy and a beautiful garden.The inside is smallish…

Apple-Almond Tart

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 10, 2012Leave a comment

Mr T loves apples and we brought a full box back from the Apple & Cider Festival in Caher a few weeks back. We stored them cool and they were still looking quite good – but we knew we had to finish them soon. Quite a few of them landed in my famous tomato chutney…

Soups – Cookery Course

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 10, 2012Leave a comment

Last night was the third night of our cookery class – cook a complete dinner and we covered a second starter option. For some reason, I always offer 2 starters – you can use the soup of course as stand alone starter – or even have it for lunch, it is delicious either way … …

Food Festival Dingle

General Foodie NewsBy Bia SastaOctober 10, 2012Leave a comment

Marc Kingston talking coffee Wow – what a great food festival. I have been to a few now in the last few months (it seems every weekend there is one on) but I have to admit that Dingle Food Festival is one of the better ones (next to Kenmare Food Carnival). The whole town is…
