We talk a lot about the future of food on this podcast, but what about the past? Máirtín Mac Con Iomaire is on a mission to uncover and celebrate Ireland’s deep-rooted food history. From the earliest evidence of dairy farming over 5,000 years ago to trade networks that shaped our cuisine, he explores how food connects us to our past.
An award-winning chef, educator, food historian, and broadcaster, Máirtín is also the co-editor of ‘Irish Food History: A Companion’, a book that traces Ireland’s food journey from early hunter-gatherers right up to modern Irish cuisine.
In this episode of Food Matters, Máirtín talks to Mick Kelly of GIY about some of Ireland’s most fascinating food traditions, the influence of figures like Myrtle Allen, the resurgence of food storytelling, and the challenges facing Irish vegetable growers today.
