On Planning A Saint Patrick's Day Dinner
The house is decked in green, the Irish music is playing softly in the background and you've got the table set. Organizing a Saint Patrick's Day dinner can be a fun way to celebrate this March holiday with your friends and family. While your first instinct may be to shop for corned beef and cabbage, there are a number of traditional dishes from which to choose.
According to the Food Services of America organization, a Saint Patrick's Day dinner of corned beef and cabbage is perhaps more of an Irish immigrant luxury than a traditional dinner served in Ireland. Thanks to the use of expensive salts in production, corned beef was a costly delicacy that was reserved for annual Easter feasts. Pork and fresh beef would be more authentic Saint Patricks Day dinner ideas. The FSA recommends serving up the following dishes for your dinner this March. Irish Lamb Stew, Irish Pot Roasted Chicken, Marinated Fried Fish Strips & Potatoes, Cod Cobbler, Potato & Parmesan Gratin, Bangers and Rum Sauce and Irish Smoked Salmon Salad.
Lest not we forget what drinks to serve with our special Saint Patrick's Day feast! A typical accompaniment to any Irish table would be something like Guinness or Murphy's. The Guinness brewery originated in St. James's Gate, Dublin circa 1725 and remains the top-selling beer in Ireland. Murphy's Irish Stout, based in County Cork since 1856, is the fastest growing stout in the world, available in 70 countries now. It's a fallacy that green beer is representative of an authentic Irish celebration. Some people think it's cute to mix a few drops of green food coloring in a lighter beer like Harp, but you're best served with Irish lager, Irish stout or Irish ale. The most popular lagers sold in Ireland include Harp and Heineken. Irish stouts like Guinness, Murphy's and Beamish are heavier, darker beers. Smithwick's is the most heralded Irish red ale. For Irish whiskey, look for Bushmills or Jameson.
At European Cuisines (www.europeancuisines.com/Ireland-Authentic-Traditional-Irish-Desserts-Dessert-Recipes), you'll find recipes for some delicious Irish desserts to serve up after your Saint Patrick's Day dinner. Here you'll find a number of delicious puddings (potato & apple, apple & barley, honey & lemon carrageen, rutabaga, Irish coffee), as well as Apple Fritters, Bailey's Irish Cream Mousse Pie, Irish Whiskey Cake and Chocolate-Orange Guinness Cake. Irish traditions are a wonderful blessing to pass down to your children, so it's good that you decided to start this year!
