Mary Berry to pick best cake at National MARIE-CLAIRE DIGBY
Ploughing Championships
A home economics teacher, a cardiac ■ Lee and Gavin McDonagh are taking Irish food to the Philippines
physiologist and an IT specialist have
created cakes that will be served to
baking expert Mary Berry, when she
visits the National Ploughing Champion-
ships in Tullamore on Wednesday,
September 19th.

The former Great British Bake Off
judge will be a guest of the National
Dairy Council, which invited Irish
bakers to create a cake to be served to
Berry for afternoon tea at the event. The
entries were judged by Irish Times food
writer Lilly Higgins, Dromoland Castle
pastry chef Chandima Gamage and
Ciara Leahy, consumer editor of the
Irish Farmers’ Journal, and three
finalists were chosen. They will bring
their winning cakes to the Ploughing
Championships and present them to
Berry for her assessment.

Anne Dunne, a home economics
teacher from Co Cork, devised a recipe
for hazelnut sablé biscuits with ricotta
mousse, caramelised pears and crushed
praline. Natasha Daly, a cardiac physiol-
ogist living in Co Kerry, created sloe gin
and blackberry cakes. IT worker Sonia
Steedman from Co Offaly made the final
cut with her pistachio, rosewater,
raspberry and white chocolate cake.

Anne to meet Mary Berry
at National Ploughing
Championships

The National Dairy Council has announce three finalists
for the Dare to Dairy with Mary competition who will
bring their winning cakes to the Ploughing Championships
on Wednesday 19th September, and meet the Queen of
Cakes herself Mary Berry. One of the finalists is Anne
Dunne from Mallow, a Home Economics teacher who lives
on a dairy, beef and tillage farm in Mitchelstown. She
created Hazelnut Sable Biscuits with Ricotta Mousse,
Caramelised Pears and Crushed Praline for the competition
which stunned the judges.
Anne said, “I am surrounded by some of the best dairy
producers and I know only too well the importance of
using locally produced products for freshness, quality and
flavour. This concept is one I regularly bring into class,
and I encourage students to research and use Irish
ingredients, where possible. I have always loved to bake
with my mum and aunts being my first educators and with
an endless supply of free range eggs from my mother’s
hens I gained much practice at home!”
Each finalist will receive a €300 voucher for Ballymaloe
Cookery School and an Afternoon Tea Hamper filled with
goodies, free entry into the Ploughing Championships, and
Afternoon Tea with Mary Berry.
Mary Berry said “I’m looking forward most to meeting
people and food producers at the National Ploughing
Championships and tasting some good Irish food. Irish
stew is one of my favourite dinners, even better with a
chunk of soda bread. My mother used to make it when I
was young and I still make it for my children and
grandchildren.” You just can’t beat a good crumble or pie
with homegrown berries, or a stew with neck of lamb,” she
remarks excitedly.
Mary Berry and finalists will be at the National Dairy
Council stand at the National Ploughing Championships on
Wednesday 19th September.

bake off

By SIMON BROUDER

A TRALEE-based doctor and
keen amateur baker is set to
meet Britain’s ‘Queen of Cakes’
Mary Berry.

Natasha Daly - who works
as a Cardiac Physiolosgist at
University Hospital Kerry - is
one of three finalists in the
National Dairy Council’s ‘Dare
to Dairy with Mary’ baking
contest.

Natasha and her fellow
finalists will bring their cakes
to the National Ploughing
Championships on September
19 when their creations will be
judged by the beloved former
‘Great British Bake Off’judge.

To win her spot in the final
Natasha created Sloe Gin and
Blackberry Cakes.

“There is a large crop of
blackberries growing in the
field behind my home so I
wanted to create a recipe us­
ing them,” said Natasha.

“The recipe was developed
from a number of different
ideas, while trying to incor­
porate dairy products into the
recipe. Each layer as I made
it was sampled and approved
by my husband. I enjoyed
doing the mirror glaze as it
was something I had never
tried before. While the rec­
ipe contains double cream
in the blackberry layer, the
end product ended up being
surprisingly light,” she said.

Each finalist will receive a
€300 voucher for Ballymaloe
Cookery School; a hamper of
goodies and will have After­
noon Tea with Mary Berry.

Berry
misses out
on tea with
the ‘Queen’

CONOR POPE
Mary Berry was an unlikely
victim of Storm Ali after her
highly-anticipated take off at
the National Ploughing
Championships fell as flat as
an undercooked soufflé with
high winds causing the aban-
donment of Wednesday’s
proceedings.

The television chef who
was the star of the Great Brit-
ish Bake Off on the BBC for al-
most a decade said she was
disappointed to have missed
her debut at the Ploughing.

She was brought to Ire-
land by the National Dairy
Council on Tuesday night
and was scheduled to take
part in a meet and greet with
fans at an event dubbed Dare
to Dairy with Mary.

As part of her appearance
she was to cast her eye over af-
ternoon tea prepared by
three finalists and had
planned to share a cup of ac-
tual tea with the Queen of the
Ploughing, Anna May
McHugh.

“We were in the carpark
and ready to go when we got
word it was being called off
due to the bad weather,” she
told The Irish Times. “It
couldn’t be helped and I
think people responded in a
very Irish way and were very
cheerful about it.”

While she has never been
to the ploughing she said she
was very familiar with Irish
cooking and farming. “I
think Irish cuisine relies very
much on local produce and I
think that’s so important be-
cause we all like to know
where our food comes from.”
Irish Stew
She said in the UK there was
“much more imported food
and it is lovely to see so much
local food, particularly lamb
and beef and dairy prod-
ucts”.

She said she was “brought
up on Irish stew” and still
loves it although her own reci-
pe is somewhat untraditional
and relies on fillet of lamb
with the bones removed.

“I know its not very tradi-
tional, but you have to move
with the times don’t you?”

When asked if she had any
concerns about what might
happen to British food in a
post-Brexit world she played
it down. “I will wait and see
what happens but it’s not
keeping me up at night.”

Nor does her absence from
the Great British Bake Off,
which moved controversially
from the BBC to Channel 4
two years ago, cause her any
sleepless nights. “I was there
for seven years and I enjoyed
every day of it but I have kept
busy since then and I am very
lucky to be so busy.”
