An Irish Food Calendar explores the traditions, stories and seasonal rhythms that have shaped Ireland's culinary identity. Travelling through the Irish year, it uncovers forgotten customs alongside enduring practices, from New Year's bread rituals and St Brigid's Day traditions to the gathering of wild plants, sea herbs and seasonal harvests. Drawing on folklore from the Dúchas Schools’ Collection, historical sources and 15 years of the author’s own research into Ireland’s contemporary wild foods, Jp McMahon reveals how landscape, climate, belief and community have always influenced what we eat while reflecting on the future of Irish food in an increasingly multicultural society.Ultimately, An Irish Food Calendar is a celebration of Irish food as a living, ever-evolving culture and invites you to experience the rhythms of the year one season, one tradition and one meal at a time.
