Corned Beef and Cabbage
Why not celebrate St. Patty’s Day with a hearty plate of the famous Irish-American dish Corned Beef and Cabbage? Although Corned Beef and Cabbage originated in America, there’s still a pretty neat history behind the meal itself.
The very first St. Patrick’s Day parade took place in New York City in 1762. And for the next 100 years or so, Irish immigrants made their way to the United States, bringing their own food and traditions along with them. Because Irish bacon — an Irish staple — was a bit expensive, cash-strapped families started cooking beef instead. Cabbage was also a cost-effective option for Irish families, so they decided to cook both cabbage and beef in the same pot, creating the delicious dish we know today.
March 17 also marks National “Eat Like an Irishman” Day, so grab your slow cooker and get to boiling, ladies!
