New St. Patrick’S Twenty-Four Hours Special: Irish Shepherd’S Pie (The Existent One, Non The Materials They Swallow Inward Cottages)

I know I may bring used a few atypical ingredients inward this, but equally far equally I’m concerned, the exclusively ii things that are mandatory to brand a “real” Shepherd’s Pie are potatoes in addition to lamb. While the solid soil beef version is also really delicious, it’s non considered a “Shepherd’s Pie,” since shepherds enhance sheep, non cows.

The existent mystery is why the beef version is called “Cottage Pie,” in addition to non “Cowboy Pie,” or “Rancher’s Pie.” When I intend virtually cattle, many things come upwards to mind, but cottages aren’t 1 of them. Okay, forthwith that nosotros bring all those search keywords inserted, nosotros tin moooo’ve on.

By the way, I know it’s something of a Food Wishes tradition that I produce a cheap, culturally insensitive joke virtually Irish-Americans drinking also much inward our St. Patrick’s Day video, but this twelvemonth I decided non to produce any. In fairness, I know hundreds of Irish Gaelic people, in addition to several of them bring no drinking work whatsoever, in addition to hence it merely didn’t appear inappropriate.

Anyway, equally I nation inward the video, this would brand a lovely option to the much to a greater extent than mutual corned beef in addition to cabbage that you lot may bring been planning for dinner. Also, I actually promise you lot detect to a greater extent than or less dainty Irish Gaelic cheddar. I used 1 called “Dubliner” past times Kerrygold, which tin hold upwards institute inward most large grocery stores.

If you’re curious virtually imbibe pairings, may I become out on a limb in addition to advise a dainty Guinness, or other Irish Gaelic beer…just concur the dark-green nutrient coloring, please. Erin become bragh, in addition to equally always, enjoy!
