St. Patrick’s Day Foods to Try

Do you have your green outfit on today?

Even if decking yourself in green on St. Patrick’s Day isn’t your thing, odds are you can get down with some traditional Irish foods and we’re sharing some delicious recipes and foods.

Here are a few traditional Irish foods (with some recipes) to try today or any other day to mix up your typical menus.

Corned Beef and Cabbage

If you are feeling bold enough to cook, check out Tyler Flores recipe for the in’s and outs on how to make corned beef for your St. Patrick’s Day food.

And if cooking is not your jam, check out these places in Austin, Texas to try corned beef for your St. Patrick’s Day food find:

Shepherd’s Pie

For a comforting main dish that is the stick-to-your-ribs cure on any cold winter night, Melissa d’Arabian’s recipe for the meat-and-veg classic, Shepherd’s Pie, is a go-to. Pile a garlicky mashed potato topping, plus a good sprinkling of cheddar, over a meaty base fortified with dark beer for super-rich flavor.

Irish Soda Bread

Bread baking is notoriously a whole to-do, but Ina’s easy-to-make Irish Soda Bread doesn’t call for any kneading, rising or waiting. Simply throw the ingredients in the mixer to bake a loaf that gains a subtle sweetness from orange zest and currants. Or head out to any of these Austin, Texas local places to pick up some soda bread:

Cabbage

Throughout history, plentiful and nutrient-rich cabbage has been a mainstay in Ireland. Cooking cabbage really is not hard, and you will have a TON of leftovers with it. Check out Ina Garten’s Sauteed Cabbage, which celebrates this sturdy vegetable by sautéing it simply with butter, salt, and pepper.What St. Patrick’s Day food will you try?
