I'm a huge fan of international foods! I love looking into the history of savory and sweet dishes to find truly authentic Irish recipes based on traditional foods from Ireland, and on the foods that Irish immigrants brought with them and modified for their life in America.

Irish Recipes

Things like corned beef and cabbage and Irish pub nachos aren't actually or exactly what's enjoyed in Ireland. The Irish enjoy bacon and cabbage, the cousin of our corned beef and cabbage.

Irish nachos are an Irish pub specialty here in the States, that are so darn good they've been taken in and adopted as pub food back in Ireland!

Of course, my favorite dishes to make are baked goods. Truly authentic Irish Soda Bread was a poor man's food made with only flour, buttermilk, baking soda and salt. It's like a biscuit, only bigger!

Irish Dessert Recipes

From my tasty Irish soda bread, comes the fabulous Irish soda bread pudding. The texture of the soda bread makes this English/Irish classic bread and butter pudding absolutely superb!

Fruit based desserts like my Irish Apple Cake and Apple Blackberry Crumble are also popular Irish desserts.

And my Irish Oatmeal Cake has a wonderful crumb texture that is topped with a creamy caramel frosting and crushed pecans. Yummy!
