Possibly the most glorious thing about having an interest in food and cooking is that you will never exhaust the endless combinations of ingredients and methods available to you. The only limitation is your own imagination. We create our own mental boundaries by allowing our preconceived notions to direct us. We inherited many of these […]
The Food Makeover

In conversation with a friend recently I found myself wading into the murky waters of food and weight loss. We would both find ourselves in that rather tricky position of having a desire to fit into a smaller trouser size but possessing an even greater desire for a steak pie, nice wine, good sausage, local […]

You can’t pick up a food magazine or go to a food website these days without seeing the words ‘budget’, ‘eat well, spend less’, ‘feed your family for a fiver’ or any other of the myriad ways we are constantly being encouraged to save money. Here’s the thing, and I don’t wish to be controversial, […]

James Whelan Butchers: Oh My, What a Pie!
Wednesday, February 4th, 2015 in Foodie Articles | No Comments »
I don’t think there is anything more disappointing in life than eyeing a fabulous looking piece of pie, sweet or savoury it doesn’t matter, only for the taste to be less than exciting. Indeed many shop bought pies, particularly the meat variety, have a way of over delivering on the picture on the outside and […]

James Whelan Butchers: Make It Easy
Monday, December 15th, 2014 in Foodie Articles | No Comments »
It’s really great to be alive at this time of technological breakthroughs, tremendous convenience, and working central heating! We have a lot to be thankful for and yet I see the stress on the faces all around me. For every smile there’s at least one frown. Some people truly delight in this time of year, […]
James Whelan Butchers: What Came First?

Eggs are loaded with vitamins, minerals, high quality proteins, good fats and various other lesser-known nutrients. An average large […]
James Whelan Butchers: Chopaholic
Friday, October 17th, 2014 in Foodie Articles | No Comments »
I find that when you mention pork chops there isn’t the instant appeal that other meat often elicits. The problem is that the chop has generally been maligned for being too dry, dull and altogether boring. I can understand this because I too, as a child, witnessed the abuses visited on the chop. What started […]
James Whelan Butchers: Know Your Spuds
Monday, September 29th, 2014 in Foodie Articles | No Comments »
October 3rd is National Potato Day; a day to celebrate the spud. Not the most glamorous of national days perhaps, but despite the fact that it is probably a promotional notion dreamt up by potato growers, why shouldn’t it have its own day? There was a time in Ireland when every day was National Potato […]
