Subject: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Kim C Date: 15 Mar 01 - 02:52 PM Okay, culinary & epicurean geniuses, a few minor suggestions to help me make this a really cool menu. NOw--- our friends that don't eat red meat can't join us for supper, but we do have a Sugar Buster in the crowd. I'm thinking, corned beef and cabbage, stew, soda bread, a salmon tray for an appetizer, and MMario's good ol' Chocolate Heffalump (I have got SO much mileage out of that one!) for a dessert everyone can eat. Plus soda pop, iced tea, stout, Irish cream, and maybe a little Bushmills if I can round up enough pennies. Is there maybe another vegetable-type dish I could fix? The Sugar Buster probably won't eat the stew because of the taters. Any and all suggestions welcome. |

Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: mousethief Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:23 PM Grr. St. Paddy's day always comes during Lent. Beans and rice, yep. Top o' th' marnin' to ye. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Steve Latimer Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:27 PM Don't forget Guinness and Jameson's or Tullamore Dew. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Wesley S Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:27 PM I'd love a good Irish Stew recipe - not that I would ever try to hijack a thread or anything. And Kim don't forget the proper music is very important too - what do you plan to play ? |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: MMario Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:37 PM substitute neeps for the taters in the stew and it should be okay. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: kimmers Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:40 PM Poor Alex! You don't do meat at all during Lent? Maybe on Sunday... you could move your St. Paddy's celebration one day later. And if you want to come down to the Portland area and be an Anglican for an evening, the following announcement may interest you (and others): EVENSONG AND A TOAST...You are invited to an evening of "practical Celtic spirituality". The Parish Choir of SS. Peter and Paul presents Evensong in observance of the glorious St. Patrick, followed by a "solemn" procession to the Horse Brass Pub where, in obedience to St. Brigid, we may toast "God's grand fiery glory"! SUNDAY, MARCH 18, 6:00 PM, SS. Peter and Paul Church, 82nd Ave. and SE Pine St., Portland,(503) 254-8168.

Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Kim C Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:50 PM what's a neep? Is that turnips? I like turnips. I could do that. I'm not sure what we'll play. Whatever strikes our fancy, I reckon. I know just a very few really Irish things. :) So we'll probably just play the CD player! We have a pretty good selection of Irish stuff there. Wes, try this link. Kat posted it for me awhile back and it's got lots of neat Irish recipes on it. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: mousethief Date: 15 Mar 01 - 03:50 PM Not even on Sundays. We shall have to celebrate St. Paddy's meatlessly, and maybe have corned beef (sorry, carrrrned beef) in his honour after Pascha. Luckily it's on Saturday this year so we can have a Liturgy for St. Pat's, which we are doing. Anybody in the area, come along -- look for the blue onion-shaped dome on Long street in Wilkeson, WA. (turn left at the fire station). Alex |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Sorcha Date: 15 Mar 01 - 04:46 PM Kim, also, boxty (potato pancakes), Colcannon (mashed potatoes with cabbage), brochtan foltchep(Parlsey and leeks), champ (potatoes with scallions).......I have to go get the girl at school, but I can post when I get back if you want.........(I thought it me that posted the SOAR site, maybe kat did too?) |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Kim C Date: 15 Mar 01 - 05:32 PM Oh, Sorch, maybe it was you... yep, it was you. Sorry, I've slept since then! ;-) Parsley and leeks could be good. I don't know that I've ever cooked a leek before... |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: GUEST,Fibula Mattock Date: 16 Mar 01 - 06:12 AM Speaking as One Who Is Irish - the traditional St. Patrick's Day meal in my part of town is kebab and chips after the pub shuts (if it does). But a big Ulster Fry comes a close second. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: manitas_at_work Date: 16 Mar 01 - 08:30 AM Paddy's day always falls during Lent so that the Lenten fast can be broken as on all feast days. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Ella who is Sooze Date: 16 Mar 01 - 08:59 AM Irish Stew, and Soda Bread.... |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Ella who is Sooze Date: 16 Mar 01 - 09:00 AM Irish Stew, and Soda Bread.... Cabbage and Bacon Potato and onions and a few glasses of Jamesons or various other few drops of the good stuff... or for those who can find it.. .Potcin (sp) Ella |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: pattyClink Date: 16 Mar 01 - 09:00 AM There's a great version of champ or colcannon that your friend might appreciate. Cook and season mashed potatoes as usual, (leaving some clean skin on if possible). Cook fresh kale cut into big pieces until tender as you would any greens. Combine the two, and accent with a puddle of butter. |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Noreen Date: 16 Mar 01 - 09:14 AM Boiled, salty bacon and cabbage cooked in the bacon stock with lots of boiled, floury potatoes still in their skins. Followed by tea bread (recipe at that link is similar to mine). Or cruibíns? (Sorry, micca!) |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Kim C Date: 16 Mar 01 - 10:01 AM As there will be potatoes in the stew I am trying to stay away from potato side dishes for the benefit of my low-carb eating friend. Sorcha, are you there? How about that parsley and leeks recipe? :) |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: MMario Date: 16 Mar 01 - 10:10 AM then there is armoured turnips:

Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: Kim C Date: 16 Mar 01 - 10:18 AM They all sound good! Thanks everybody! Looks like I'm going to be a busy little bee tomorrow. :) |
Subject: RE: BS: St. Pat's Supper suggestions From: catspaw49 Date: 16 Mar 01 - 11:03 AM As long as any turnip recipe ends with "Scrape the entire mess down the disposal," it would suit me fine. Spaw |
