  • New Irish Cuisine a Comprehensive Study of Its Nature and Recent Popularity
    New Irish cuisine A comprehensive study of its nature and recent popularity An MSc thesis New Irish cuisine A comprehensive study of its nature and recent popularity Pedro Martínez Noguera [email protected] 950723546110 Study program: MSc Food Technology (MFT) Specialisation: Gastronomy Course code: RSO-80433 Rural Sociology Supervisor: dr. Oona Morrow Examiner: prof.dr.ing. JSC Wiskerke June, 2020 Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to various people without whom nothing of this would have been possible. First, thank you Oona for your fantastic supervision. Digging into the sociology of food has been truly eye-opening. Second, many thanks to all the warmhearted Irish people I have had the pleasure to meet throughout this journey: chefs, foodies, colleagues of the postgrad office at UCC, and the marvelous friends I made in Cork and Galway. Third, thanks to Irene and Gio. Their generosity deserves space on these lines. Finally, this thesis is especially dedicated to my family, my brothers and particularly my parents, for their incalculable support and for having let me freely pursue all my dreams. 3 Abstract Irish gastronomy has experienced a great transformation in the last couple of decades. High-end restaurants have gone from being predominantly French or British throughout the 20th century to depicting today a distinctive Irish tone. I have referred to this fashion as new Irish cuisine (NIC), a concept that attempts to enclose all fine-dining ventures that serve modern Irish food in Ireland and their common cooking ethos. This research has aimed to investigate thoroughly the nature of this culinary identity from a Bourdieuian perspective and to contextualize its emergence.
