Flour is an indispensable guide to a wide range of flours, from familiar wheat and cereal flours to less well-know barley, pea, quinoa, and fava bean flour. Christine explores how flour has long been a staple part of our diet and offers a comprehensive look at the alternatives to traditional wheat flour.
Christine's blog is full of fascinating food-related musings – from seasonal food and food producers to cooking tools, food markets, and gastro-travel. You'll also find some must-try recipes and invaluable tips and techniques.

These traditional potato cakes are named “farls” from the Gaelic word fardel, meaning quarter. A central part of an Ulster fry, farls are popular across Northern Ireland. Making them at home is simple and requires minimal ingredients: some left-over mashed potatoes, a pinch of salt and just enough flour to bind.
This simple and naturally sweet recipe is a delicious and nourishing alternative to traditional grain-based granola. Packed with crunch from brazil nuts, seeds, and flaked almonds, it’s full of healthy fats, fibre and plant protein - perfect for a sustaining breakfast or snack. The chia fruit compote adds a bright, jammy contrast, thickened naturally with chia seeds for extra texture and nutrition.
Orfhlaith Noone's addition of Guinness to Irish soda bread give it a modern twist, lending a deep, malty flavour to the loaf. This bread is the perfect accompaniment to hearty Irish dishes like seafood chowders, beef stews, soups, or simply with a smear of salted butter - Irish only, please!
