"The Irish Spirit" combines the Emerald Isle's favorite recipes with a touch of ale, stout, cider, or whiskey, creating terrific new flavor combinations. Whether scallops and shrimp are poached in single-malt whiskey, tender brisket is simmered in ale and topped with a golden cheese cobbler, or old-time pineapple upside-down cake is updated with a buttery, toffee liqueur topping, each recipe is enhanced by Ireland's famous spirits. In addition to the terrific recipes is the fascinating history of Irish whiskey, stories of classic events like Belfast's popular Pub Crawl, and the origins of the infamous "black and tan," making this spirited cookbook a delight for all with a touch of the Irish.

If you are a Vegan, this book is not for you. The recipes are of a hearty kind. The presentation is superb as are the photographs. Tradition mixed with new age. A delight for the pallette. Just remember the spirits are for the cooking not the drinking before hand. Highly recommended to any who enjoy food at it's best.
