A few of them I have tried. A friend and I are trying to collect old Celtic recipes ....the traditional, OLD recipes that Grams and Great Grams and before would have been cooking over the years and handing the recipes down mother to daughter.

Vicky and I are thinking if we can find enough of these recipes, especially old Celtic holiday foods, that we might create a cookbook (with proper credit due to any and all sources).

Not sure if this idea of ours will work, but we are going to give this one our best shot!

Maggie.........I'll let the folks here know when the Family is ready to put out an old fashioned Irish/Scots feast and I'm sure the invites will be forthcoming when we do smile.gif


Draconis <doesn't mind cooking for a crowd>

Hiya all,
Just reading through the recipies - great ones here! smile.gif
So, off topic, but, there is a book on Celtic Folklore Cooking - it is good, and a lot of old recipies.

In honour of St Patrick's Day, I've bumped this thread up to the top in case anyone is interested in trying of the wonderful recipes contained in this thread.

I have put a few of the recipes given to me by the mother of a friend of mine. Her soda bread is the best I've ever tasted - and I've tasted A LOT in various trips to Ireland. biggrin.gif

I'm make a huge dinner on Saturday for St. Patrick's Day (I know it's not actually St. Patrick's Day, but a girl's gotta work) and my sister wants "shilleleagh" (don't know if I spelled that right) and potatoe pie. Anyone know of any good recipes for those items?

A shilleagh is a kind of walking stick - I've never heard of it referred to as a food item biggrin.gif

It appears your sister was looking to have liquid dinner. Everything that I came up with was a drink.

1 1/2 oz Irish Whiskey
1 tbsp Sloe Gin

I make these with left over mashed potatoes. They are yummy! Maybe I'll try them with the shredded potatoes. I'm sure the texture would be different and maybe a little more crispier.

Pretty much your basic cake recipe but it's the glaze that gives it the different flavor.


Emerald Isle Cake



1/2 cup butter softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk


GLAZE:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons Irish whiskey (Tullamore Dew gives a milder taste, while Jameson's is a more oakey flavor, your choice)
Green food coloring, optional
Slivered almonds, optional


In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Blend in vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add alternately with the milk. Beat until smooth. Spread into a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes or until cake tests done. For glaze, combine confectioners’ sugar and whiskey; stir until smooth and fairly thin. If desired, add 1 to 2 drops of food coloring and stir until well blended. Spread glaze over warm cake. Sprinkle with almonds if desired.
