Favorite Recipes for St. Patrick's Day
Everyone's got a little Irish in them. Or at least has been to an Irish bar? That counts. In honor of St. Paddy's, here are recipes to go with your pint of Guinness or Bulmers (or Mangers in the States). We've got multiple soda bread variations, beef stew, corned beef, plenty of cabbage, and stout cake all represented. These aren't necessarily all truly authentic, but they make us feel a wee bit more Irish.Serious Entertaining: Simple St. Patrick's Day Supper
I've made my fair share of soda breads, corned beef, and Guinness cakes over the years. This year I'm keeping it simple with a menu that honors some of Ireland's best ingredients.Serious Salad: Kosher Coleslaw
I'm not as fond of boiled vegetables as my Irish ancestors, but I do like making "health salad"—a form of "kosher" coleslaw. What could be a more fitting tribute to the heritage of my great-grandparents than a deli salad made with cabbage? Health salad is often served at delis because the cabbage is marinated in oil and vinegar, which means it can be eaten with meat according to the Jewish dietary laws that prohibit mixing meat and dairy. This recipe is adapted from a New Jersey diner.Shows We're Watching: Rachel Allen Bake! on the Cooking Channel
Last week the much-awaited Cooking Channel launched, and along with this new network comes a whole slew of new shows and stars. We thought we'd introduce you to some of our favorite new shows, starting with Rachel Allen: Bake! Rachel Allen has actually already been a cooking show host for some time on BBC, not to mention her work as a food writer and cooking instructor at a culinary school in Cork, Ireland. The premise of her new Cooking Channel show is easy, approachable baking. Though charmed by Allen's gentle Irish accent and pretty smile, I was hoping she would take this mainstream baking show concept to a higher level.Quiz: How Much Do You Know About Irish Food?
It's still St. Patrick's Day in some parts of the world. You have the drill down: green beer and corned beef (maybe some green bagels). After all, what else is there to know about Irish food? Plenty. Test your knowledge on how much you really know about Irish cuisine. Take this quiz! »Another Kind of Irish Breakfast: Queen of Tarts in Dublin
A full Irish breakfast may come with eggs, rashers, and white pudding, but my personal favorite Irish breakfast—and, in truth, one of my favorite breakfasts anywhere—is of a slightly sweeter nature, found at the Queen of Tarts in Dublin. While there's truly nothing bad on the menu (and I've tasted everything), I'm happiest with a massive, buttery raspberry scone, served with a dainty pot of jam, or just a thick, buttered slice of the house-baked brown bread.Authenticity Versus Tastiness
Deb of Smitten Kitchen on blasphemous bread, after Melissa Clark's recent inauthentic Irish soda bread recipe in the NYT: I’ve never made Irish soda bread before and eaten it almost as rarely, so I can’t offer a review with any authority, but what I loved about this article is neither could Clark. She was told by a friend married to an Irishman and living in his country that though her version was rich and lovely, it neither looked nor tasted like the real deal. Apparently, nobody in Ireland serves real soda bread anymore, she said, and even if they did, it would have no raisins, eggs, butter or caraway seeds. After trying a version faithful to the original and finding...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
