For Sunday April 7th, this is Food In 5 Minutes, the part of the Ken On Food podcast that brings you five food stories from the food scene in Ireland and beyond, served fresh in five minutes or less.
It may have been a storm-filled, rain-sodden week on Irish soil, but there’s never a dull moment in the world of food and this week I’ve got another five stories for you to accompany your Sunday brew. If you’d like more details, extra reading, recipes to try for the week ahead and a podcast pick to match, consider a free membership to my Substack newsletter, it’s called The Week In Food and you’ll find it at kenonfood.substack.com or get links on the blog. Much like this podcast, it drops in your mail every Sunday morning. Here’s this week’s podcast…
