Dive into the heart of Irish culinary tradition with Best of Irish Traditional Cooking, a heartfelt recipe collection by celebrated food writer and beloved TV personality Biddy White Lennon. A familiar face to many from her role on The Riordans and as a judge on The Great Irish Bake Off, she brings warmth, authenticity, and a personal touch to every recipe.

From starters to sweet treats, this book focuses on practical, hearty, and familiar dishes—think Dublin Coddle, Bantry Bay mussels, Kerry apple cakes, barm brack, Guinness stew, Baileys cheesecake, and of course, that famous Irish Coffee. Alongside each recipe, you’ll find charming anecdotes, folklore, and cultural insights inspired by traditional Irish cooking.
