About

Following a brief and ill-fated foray into the world of Michelin starred cooking and reality TV, Jess decided to keep cookery as a hobby. She is an aspiring lawyer, impromptu schoolteacher, and failed historian.

An Irish expat, she is currently based in Denmark, following stints in Australia, the UK and the Netherlands, where she is conducting quantitative research into the health benefits of consuming large quantities of cheese, and the use of the third person as a narrative device.

You can find more of her writing at Honest Cooking.

  1. Hi Canalcook, thanks for visiting my blog, thought I’d pop over and check yours out too. Love it! There’s quite a few yummy recipes I’m going to have to put on my to-do list. Those beetroot tartlets look super, as does the mushroom, herb and Applewood polenta. Loved your post on Amsterdam too, I lived in Holland for a short while in my early 20s and think the Dutch attitude to food is great!

  2. Thanks or stopping by my site and for the “like”. Really like your blog – your writing style is very easy to read. You’ve mentioned that the Danes love drinking buttermilk. I think that’s popular all across northern Europe – I’ve definitely seen it in the Baltic countries. Danish food sounds interesting – might see if I can get that far on my odyssey! Take care, June.
