With their glorious pops of colour on the cover and their compact A5 size, the Blasta Books cookbook series is rapidly becoming an iconic Irish ‘brand’.
Featuring alternative voices, they have captured imaginations at home and abroad — including gushing praise from Jamie Oliver and Nigella Lawson — upending the traditional cookbook market and some, such as Goldie chef Aishling Moore’s Whole Catch, have sold exceptionally well.
