Growing up in Ireland, we never ate corned beef and cabbage on St. Patricks Day ? nor did anyone we know. It's an American-Irish tradition, that just doesn't exist in Ireland. On our national feast day at home, we eat regular Irish food and perhaps drink a little extra to celebrate the day.

A fried Irish breakfast will set you up for the whole day. A traditional fry includes a few slices of bacon (we call them rashers), fried tomatoes, black pudding (blood sausage), brown soda bread, and a huge pot of tea.

We love buttery scones. Homemade scones are available in every small corner shop, grocery store, and gas station and are best eaten with lots of salty Irish butter.
Irish Soda Bread

Soda bread is a staple in Ireland. Brown soda bread is made with whole-wheat flour, buttermilk, and baking soda; and white soda bread is made with white flour. It’s traditionally made into a round loaf with a cross etched in the center to keep the fairies out.

A traditional Sunday roast dinner is very popular in Ireland. The roast meat is served with roasted potatoes, peas, carrots, and lashings of gravy. Nothing will taste as good as your Mammy's roast dinner.

In the U.S., there is apple pie, but in Ireland we have apple tart. These rustic tarts are often baked on a plate, and made with homemade pastry and local apples. No matter where you go in Ireland, someone will always have rustled up a homemade apple tart.

St. Patrick's Day can be a day of heavy drinking, and the crisp sandwich is a well-known hangover cure. It's essentially some Irish potato chips sandwiched between two slices of buttered white bread.
