This is a beautiful post full of gorgeous recipes. However, I must tell you that “corned beef” is not Irish. It’s an American thing and not something the Irish eat often at all, let alone for St. Patrick’s Day.
We know! Hence the “super inauthentic” disclaimer at the top =] But corned beef IS delicious and we love to eat it anytime of the year. Have a great St. Patrick’s Day!
