For the first time in February, I’ve got a fresh helping of Food In 5 Minutes for you.
It’s the part of the Ken On Food podcast where, if you haven’t taken in any of January’s episodes, you’ll find five food stories plucked from Ireland and beyond this past week all summed up in five minutes or less. I like to think of it as the ideal accompaniment to your Sunday morning espresso, me digging through the headlines of the week so you won’t have to. If you’re thinking on putting on a second coffee, then I’ve got second helpings for you this week through The Week In Food, my free newsletter that drops every Sunday morning around 7am. You can sign up for free here with each week bringing you the stories featured in the podcast, plus additional reading, recipes for the week ahead, podcast picks and more.
Find the links to all stories mentioned this week below.
