Shenanchie’s Kitchen has been updated for the autumn season, and the new cookbook is now officially available for purchase. To order your copy, or to obtain more information about the cookbook, please click here.

 

Below is a list of the other changes and new features at Shenanchie’s Kitchen for this go-around:

SITE CHANGES >>> The main page of Shenanchie's Kitchen has been changed to reflect the design continuance of the rest of the site. I received several comments from readers about the slow-loading time of the old design, so I felt it was time to rectify the problem.

 

The Diabetic and Vegan recipe pages have been eliminated. I decided to forego these recipes as part of Shenanchie's Kitchen to narrow down maintenance on the pages, as well as the time-consuming experimentation for new recipes in these categories.

 

FOOD ARTICLES >>> After many requests by readers, I have reinstated the original articles about Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales that first appeared on Savorys by Shenanchie a few years ago. Click the link of you choice below to read the featured articles:

• Irish Food & Culture

• English Food & Culture

• Scottish Food & Culture

• Welsh Food & Culture
