Paris got cookin , and our salmon was one of the stars!
Bord Bía (the Irish Food Board) in France invited a few Instagram influencers to get cooking with chef Gilles Bellot. They were provided some Irish ingredients, like Gunpowder Gin by The Shed Distillery, steaks from Irish Hereford Prime, Cashel Blue, our Burren Smoked Irish Organic Salmon and Butlers Chocolates, and then got busy.
Chef showed them on zoom how to cook or serve the ingredients, and they got cooking alongside him on the other side of the screen. Way to go these days!
The influencers then shared their stories and posts, and though the pictures are all very different (and wonderfully so), what came across from all of them was the sheer joy of eating those delicious, authentic Irish foods and tasting the gin.
