Eat Like the Irish!

St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner! In the past, I've talked about Irish books and plays; I've even talked about Irish movies. Today, I thought I'd talk about something different that we can all sink our teeth into (literally)--Irish food!

When most of us think of Irish food, corned beef and cabbage along with a pint of Guinness probably come to mind. Irish cuisine, however, goes beyond those two St. Patrick's Day staples. Take a look at these recipes which are bound to make your mouth water:

  • Colcannon (Spend With Pennies)  It's hard to get any better than creamy, Irish-style potatoes with bacon, cabbage, and butter--oh, my!
  • Corned Beef and Cabbage (Dinner at the Zoo)  Easy, traditional, slow cooker recipe with melt-in-your-mouth meat.
  • Irish Beef and Guinness Stew (Recipe Tin Eats)  A hearty beef stew full of flavor, perfect when served over mashed potatoes.
  • Irish Potato Leek Soup (My Recipes)  Great for St. Patrick's Day or any chilly day.
  • Irish Tea Cake (Will Cook for Smiles)  A no-fuss, buttery cake that's great with a cup of tea.
  • Scones (Bigger Bolder Baking)  The best recipe ever for Irish scones. Period.
  • Soda Bread (Sally's Baking Addiction)  Classic, flavorful, simple-to-make quick bread.

So, are you getting hungry yet? Why not try one of these tasty recipes? And don't forget to check out other delectable delicacies offered by the websites.

Wishing you good eats and a Happy St. Patrick's Day from the perch.
