•March 6, 2024•
St. Patrick’s Day presents the perfect opportunity to try authentic Irish cuisine as well as foods and beverages that have become associated strictly with the holiday (like green beer). It’s likely someone you know will be cooking corned beef and cabbage this St. Patrick’s Day. But what if you’re among those who just doesn’t fancy the salted and pickled flavoring of this familiar favorite?
“Zesty Braised Beef with New Potatoes” isn’t exactly corned beef, but it can be a worthy alternative. It’s warm, filling and flavorful, and can be just the thing to eat on a chilly March day. What’s more, this rich beef can pair well with a dark stout like Guinness. Enjoy this recipe, courtesy of “The Healthy Slow Cooker” (Robert Rose) by Judith Finlayson.
