Eat like the Irish on St Patrick’s Day

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

Being the resident foodie at Allison & Busby, it may not suprise you to know that I am on Delicious Magazine’s mailing list. Today, they sent me an email highlighting various Irish recipes with which to celebrate St Patrick’s Day. Aptly entitled: Enjoy the tuck of the Irish…
You have to love copywriters and their puns.

So, allow me to share the culinary delights they sent me. Tuck in here.

(Personally I like the sound of the colcannon cakes with crisp pancetta and stilton - pictured below)

    The Rose of Sebastopol, by Katharine Mcmahon Lara: Mariella is an interesting protagonist – so far, not your traditional heroine and still second fiddle to the beautiful, enigmatic Rosa. This is the author’s aim I suppose, but I’m still interested to see if Mariella does finally come into her own – or if as readers you’ll always wish the story was told from Rosa’s point of view instead.
