So here are 5 examples of authentic Irish food that you should try this St Patrick’s Day alongside a pint of Guinness.Bubble and squeak is a dish traditionally made in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Corned beef & cabbage was more fueled by Irish-Americans living in New York. Very few Irish could afford to eat it themselves. They were prohibited from exporting cattle to England, so began to supply Europe and the Americas with this corned beef. Ireland had a very low tax rate on imported high quality salt and a plentiful beef supply. The term “corned beef” was coined by the British to describe the salt used in curing the beef. But it does stem from an Irish background.Ĭorned beef and cabbage is not actually a common dish in Ireland, even on St Patrick’s Day. While the Guiness is clearly authentic Irish, the corned beef and cabbage is less so.
