I went to a St. Patty's Day Party, and it was a sea of green, mint, fruit, eggs, veggies, pie, nothing was off limits when it came to this untraditional pot luck, but when you are a chef and all your friends are "Foodies" it makes for some pretty interesting meals.
My very red headed friend Ryan is the iconic image of an Irish man, and he made the best Corned Beef in Guiness ever, the aroma was hypnotic and it was soft on the tongue and pleasant on the palate. It took 4 hours to prepare this creation, as many worth while foods do, and even now in the morning after the party, I am figuring out what I can receate from the flavorful broth that remains. If you are going to have left over broth from any dish, a few new ingredients and you can have a wonderful recycled dish with less cooking time, and no waste.
I brought over a pan of Pad Thai with chicken, I know, not very Irish, it had green onions, so I guess that counts.
