Irish Chef JP McMahon, There is more to Irish food than the potato!
Manage episode 358079490 series 3310499
Dr. Jp McMahon is a lot of things; one characteristic that stands out to me is that he is generous! I had such a fun conversation with this complex multi-passionate soul.
Dr. McMahon is one of Ireland's most prominent chefs!
His Michelin Star restaurant Aniar inspired his latest book that launched this week! "An Alphabet of Aniar: Notes For A New Irish Cuisine" He offers so much to the culinary world as a restaurateur, author, and culinary director of the EatGalway Restaurant Group. In addition, he runs the Aniar Boutique Cookery School and is the Founding chair and director of the Galway Food Festival. He also organizes the annual international chef symposium in Galway. "Food on the Edge." Their mission is "To discuss how to provide a more sustainable and ethical way to produce food for all."
I discovered JP during the Covid lockdown in my search for a new cookbook. I ordered "The Irish Cookbook" and was transported to Ireland as he so respectfully brought the history of Irish food into the present. He has given the world an education and permission to create something new from what we know.
JP is more than a chef. He is a super proud dad, a photographer, a produced playwright, a poet, a football fan, and more. He has many creative outlets, and I could not be more thankful for our conversation!
I would love to hear from you!
