We are privileged in Ireland to have some very impressive cookbook authors and through blogging I've been lucky enough meet many of them. One such author, that I met and got on brilliantly with, was the lovely Edward Hayden. Edward is a great, down to earth guy and this is very much reflected in his recipes.
Edward's second cookbook Food to Love was release last year and now a new a paperback edition has just been reprinted and is in shops, priced €14.99. I've really enjoyed cooking from Food to Love and Edward's Never Fail Muffins have been a big hit in our house, as well as his Slow Cider-Roasted Loin of Pork.
If you would like to meet Edward, he has numerous upcoming cookery demonstrations. This weekend Edward will be at SO Sligo. Kilkenny Design Centre, in Edward's home county of Kilkenny, are organising tasting events, almost every Saturday, through the lunch hours of 12-3. On Saturday 2nd of June Edward will be there for a book signing. Later in June he will once again be gracing the stage at Taste of Dublin. This man is travelling the country, doing cookery demonstrations, and could possibly be at a venue near you, so check out his website for more details.
To celebrate the release of Food to Love {paperback edition} I've been kindly given a copy to give away to one lucky reader of the blog.
