‘Tis National Irish Food Day, so you may want to celebrate with yummy, traditional Irish foods.
Corned beef and cabbage need not be your preference, and there are many other options. Shepherd’s Pie, Irish Stew, Guinness Beef Stew, Mushroom Pot Pie (for vegetarians), and Seared Sausages with Apples come to mind.
Beef Wellington, though British, is named for the Duke of Wellington, who was born in Dublin.
You may prefer Oysters or Fish and Chips.
Perhaps a side of potato pancakes, some Irish Soda Bread, or a Barmbrack sweet bread. A Super Simple appetizer of sharing dish would be a Cheese Fondue made with Guinness.
Or try some Irish soup, like potato, roasted parsnip, or leek.
Naturally, you’ll want to wash it down with a green Guinness or savor an Irish coffee. Whatever you choose, may the luck o’ the Irish be with you today and always.
