Taste of the Week. Weekend Deluxe by Ryes 'n Shine Bakery

Taste of the Week 

Weekend Deluxe by Ryes 'n Shine Bakery



 
"I am passionate about baking and always keen to keep things healthy. Ryes & Shine specialises in sourdough breads and other sourdough goods, often with a twist." That's the brief introduction to Angela Nöthlings, the proprietor of the new-ish bakery called Ryes 'n Shine.

I came across her for the first time last week at her regular Saturday morning stall outside Henchy's Pub at St Luke's Cross in Cork city and she had quite a selection (all the items are sourdough) on sale and a queue soon began to form.


We picked a few items, including what has turned out to be our Taste of the Week, the Weekend Deluxe. It is one of her speciality breads, a mostly white loaf with added wholewheat, it includes walnuts (and or pecans), cranberries (maybe currants, raisins) and 85% chocolate splinters – the perfect and healthy alternative to chocolate croissants! This bread can also be toasted and is a superb weekend breakfast treat. It is great with cheeses such as goats cheese or feta.

I have to admit that this beautiful loaf didn't last too long. Neither did the amazing Cinnamon buns that we bought. Next Saturday can't come soon enough. She probably won't have the Deluxe (made just once a month) but she'll have something equally delicious.


To order, contact Mayfield based Angela Nöthlings on 086-3565036. Also worth checking her Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/ryes.and.shine.cork/

Taste of the Season. Barnabrow Christmas Pudding


Taste of the Season
Barnabrow Christmas Pudding
Beautiful texture, amazing flavours

This year, Aberdeen born Chef Stuart Bowes gave the famous Barnabrow Christmas Pudding some added punch, packing it “with the locally distilled Jameson Whiskey and soaked with a double potion of Guinness”.

The pudding was dark, laden with fruit, bound with butter, laced with fresh spices, sprinkled with fairy dust, sweetened with local honey and carrot from their Victorian walled garden. The whisky and stout also helped moisten it.

For all that, there was a certain textural lightness about it, nothing like the heavy unappealing almost indigestible dark slabs served up in some establishments. It was a delight to dispatch and was our Taste of the Season.

Roughy Fruity had them on sale in the English Market. Perhaps they have some left! I suspect there may still be some on offer at Sunday lunch in Barnabrow! And I see that they have a Little Christmas event next Saturday afternoon.
