Irish Recipes
Ireland is well-known
for its farming tradition.
Of course, potatoes are a key ingredient in Irish cooking,
and indeed have been a stable ingredient in the Irish diet
ever since their introduction in the late 17th century,
but many other crops are grown too - including barley and oats.
Additionally
Ireland produces some excellent livestock -
in recent years, beef has risen greatly in popularity,, but
lamb and pork are both traditionally popular.
As you might expect, given Ireland's
long coastline and seafaring tradition, seafood is also forms
an important part of Irish cuisine. Oysters are very popular -
and oysters are a popular event around the country, where they
are eaten with Guinness. Ireland is also known for
Dublin Bay prawns (langoustines) which are actually a miniature
type of lobster. Popular fish include cod and salmon.
Many Irish meals are eaten with bread - and Ireland
has its own unique types of bread, including:
- Soda bread - A bread made using baking soda instead of yeast. Whole wheat
soda bread is known as "wheaten".
- Irish potato bread (also known as "fadge", "potato cake", "potato farls",
and "slims" - as well as informally as "tatie bread") - Unleavened bread made using
potatoes instead of much of the wheat flour.
- Blaa - A very soft white bread roll, covered in layers
of flour, that is unique to Waterford.
Some popular Irish dishes include:
- Irish stew (Irish: Gaelic: Stobhach Gaelach) -
This is probably the most famous Irish dish in the world - it's a stew made from lamb or mutton, with potatoes, onions and parsley.
Some cooks recommend the addition of barley, root vegetables such as carrots, parsnips or turnips, or even Guinness.
Irish emigrant communities around the world have taken this dish with them and adapted it to local
conditions - for example, beef may be substituted for lamb, or paprika added to spice the dish up!
- Coddle - Pork sausages and bacon rashers are quickly cooked. Then,
potatoes, onions and perhaps barley, are added, and slowly cooked using the stock
from the meat.
- Bacon and cabbage - A traditional Irish dish. Although, Irish Americans
often used corned beef, this is actual an adaption of the original bacon and cabbage recipe.
beef and cabbage.
- Champ - Mashed potato with chopped scallions (green onions), milk and butter.
- Colcannon - Mashed potato with kale, cabbage or wild garlic.
