Donal heads for Cork this week and meets Declan Ryan of Arbutus Bread, the first chef to be awarded a Michelin Star in Ireland.
In Kanturk he checks out McCarthy’s Black Pudding – creators of Black Pudding which won a gold medal from The Brotherhood of the Knights of the Black Pudding in 2013 for ‘International Creativity’.
And Donal also discovers delicious Longueville House Irish Apple Brandy – made with apples from the Blackwater Valley and which can be used to make cocktails and a unique twist on an Irish coffee.
And for his FEAST in Longueville House Donal’s dishes include Sourdough Tartine with Blue Cheese & Roasted Honey Figs, McCarthy’s Bramley Apple Bangers with Parsnip & Leek Mash, Sage & Cider Gravy with Black Pudding Crumble, followed by Apple Frangipane Tart with Apple Brandy Syrup.
