Connemara - Chowder: Fish stew with mussels from Killary Fjord | At our Neighbour's Table

Connemara is located in County Galway at the westernmost tip of Ireland. Surrounded by the roaring Atlantic Ocean, the region is characterised by gentle hills, heath and moorland. The centre is the small town of Galway with a lively cultural scene. The cityscape is characterised by students, musicians and creative people. In the surrounding area, many people make a living from breeding Connemara ponies. These friendly, frugal horses brave the often harsh and wet weather and have lived for centuries in the peaty bogs and on scree slopes.

Now in autumn he prepares the horses' hooves for the long winter. Each iron is handmade, because the animals have individual needs. Besides his work as a blacksmith, Bryan breeds ponies himself. He currently trains every day with the young pony Perry. Bryan's older brother John runs a farm with horses, cows, sheep and chickens with his wife Marcella. John participates in a local barter network. Surplus food from the farms is exchanged among themselves. In a social media group, 25 farmers provide information about their products.

Seasonal and regional is still important in the western part of Ireland: on the table is the fish stew chowder with mussels from nearby Killary Fjord or a stew with the meat of Connemara lamb. The dark, rich soda bread and desserts made with seaweed are also part of Western Irish cuisine. At our Neighbour's Table - Connemara | Season 2020 - Episode 242 2020 © Licensed by Berlin Producers
