Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

We’ve tried a couple of Irish recipes this week, starting with with a slow-cooked Corned Beef Cabbage and moving on to the real star, corned beef hash with poached eggs. Neither belong in the “Healthy Living” section, but they were both really good, especially the hash, which was rich as I expected it would be, but also surprisingly mustard-y.

Our research in to Irish food scored us the Irish Food Board’s recipe page, including the excellent subsections, “Hot Potatoes” and the best one of all, “Everything Tastes Better with Bacon.” I am NOT making this up.

Forget about Pacific Fusion cuisine; this weekend we’re going to start a trend in Atlantic fusion cuisine by having a Southern fish fry with a few Irish starters, sides, and desserts, all washed down by plenty of Guinness.

    I felt like a “fake” Irishman yesterday. Things at work kept me from taking the day off. In fact, I didn’t leave the office until 8:45 last night. So, I stopped by the local grocery store to get some beer. I got the _last_ 4 pack of Guinness Pub Draught Cans as well as the _last_ 6 pack of Harp bottles. So, at least I had a Half and Half on St Patty’s Day even though it wasn’t in a bar…
