Irish Thought for May 7...

Irish Food

Irish Stew

Originally a thick and hearty peasant dish created with readily available and inexpensive local ingredients such as lamb (or beef), potatoes, onions, turnips, parsnips, carrots, and parsley, Irish stew is so popular and nostalgic that recent recipes have been exalted to near-gourmet status.  Called ballymaloe or stobhach gaelach in Gaelic, Irish stew is also sometimes favor with Guinness stout.
