The Goat’s Cheese is a beaut. Beautifully written, photographed and produced, it sets a new benchmark for local books, and it deserves to sell by the truckload. Collaborative books of this nature require an enormous amount of work to get from concept to execution. Some chefs give you pin-point-perfect recipes. Others shower you with confetti. Getting a consistent style and tone is extremely difficult to achieve.
But Fergus, Danny and Pete have done it. This is the best advertisement for Skerries that has ever existed.
Everything is explained well so amateur cooks need not worry that the recipes are beyond their range. Pages and excellent photography are slightly muted giving an old-fashioned hue, but this is a book that will sit well in any kitchen.
