Guest Blog: Forgotten Skills of Cooking

Forgotten Skills of Cooking, a 2009 cookbook from Irish television chef and cookery school owner Darina Allen, is filled with information on nearly every facet of food preparation for Irish cuisine, as well as a collection of straightforward recipes for nearly every traditional Irish dish you could think of. Some of the techniques described may be a bit niche, expensive, and time-consuming, but there is such a wealth of information that anyone who loves food and cooking can easily learn something they didn’t already know in the book.
