And a huge #CookbookCorner shout-out for the gorgeous #Masarap by Richie Castillo and Alex O’Neill, a small book of Filipino food that I love in a big way! Already have the ingredients in for the Crispy Pata – whole, deep-fried ham hock – and can’t wait to cook more from this lovely little number from the always estimable @blastabooks

Who's baking barmbrack this weekend for Halloween? But remember, tea brack is not the same thing as barmbrack! Get Graham Herterich's traditional recipe in his book BAKE. @thecupcakebloke

"At an Irish Halloween party, there will always be at least one person dressed as someone from a topical news story, two random lads from the pub who haven’t bothered their holes to dress up at all and at least one drink that’s the colour of blood." - @OisinTweets

Happy pub day to @bahaydub on their debut book, MASARAP from @blastabooks - but did you know they also shared a recipe for sopas (soup), Richie's go-to comfort food, in THE GATHERED TABLE by @GatheredIreland?

You can freeze all your odds and ends of raw vegetables until you have enough to make vegetable stock - but don't use artichokes, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, swedes and turnips as their strong flavours can be too overpowering.

My latest @blastabooks cookbook by @bahaydub just dropped through the post! I have every book from both series & love them. I know next to nothing about (Irish) Filipino cuisine, so looking forward to diving in… 😃
