Seamus O’Connell’s Recipe.
Apologies to all of you who are waiting patiently for the recipe for the white-forest gateau which Seamus made on our farm last summer. When last speaking with Seamus, he was unable to recall the exact quantities of ingredients required, and said that he was going to make another to refresh his own memory. This he would have to do anyway he said, as he was going to include the recipe in his forthcoming book. I will be keeping in contact with Seamus, and will try to have the recipe in as soon as he has down on paper. Otherwise, I will just have to buy his book when it comes out, and let you know the recipe after that.
