Welcome to "The Irish Kitchen," a group dedicated to the celebration and expansion of traditional Irish cuisine Glad to have you aboard. This is the place to come for legit Irish recipes, culinary history, preparation / serving tips, etc. We're going to try to keep things as authentic as possible around here. We'll leave the corned beef & cabbage (which almost nobody here in Ireland knows anything about) for Paddy's Day. That being said, food and beverage in modern Ireland have enjoyed a period of sustained innovation over the past two decades or so, and we want to reflect that here as well.
If you have a great Irish recipe you've tried and would like to share, please do. If you have one you'd like to try and want to share, please do. Any time you try a recipe you've found here, please come back at some point and give us your impressions, and any suggestions you have that might improve the recipe.
Thanks, everyone ... this should be fun!

Anybody else here a user / member at BigOven.com? It's a great site with a HUGE library of user-submitted recipes (and reviews of those recipes). I've set up a mirror group for us there also called "The Irish Kitchen" where we can post links to the recipes here we deem worthy of passing along to the multitudes who use that site. Maybe they'll want to join us here at The Wild Geese.
If you don't have a profile there, I highly recommend registering one, then joining our group there. BigOven has great apps for the iPhone and iPad, too (and Android too, I think).

What are the basic ingredients -- and utensils -- that every devotee of Irish traditional cooking might want to have on hand? And these might differ, I gather, from those needed for Irish 'fusion' cooking.

I'd like to welcome Maryann Tracy to the group! Maryann was really the brains behind this whole "Irish Kitchen" thing to begin with, and we'll all benefit from having her here to help make this a thriving little group within the greater Wild Geese community.

Ger ... Basic ingredients is an interesting discussion, because Irish cuisine is evolving at an amazing rate -- perhaps as much as any genre in the world right now! Seafood has always been and will always be at the forefront. Beef, lamb, potatoes, of course. We'll delve into that more as we go along.

Can you send me the best gluten-free recipe for soda bread?
Thanks Carolyn Flynn Fay

Hi, Carolyn.
I've done some gluten-free baking for friends who are gluten-intolerant, but I've never tried a gluten-free soda bread. I searched for what I think will give the best results, and here's the recipe I'm going to suggest:http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.ie/2009/03/gluten-free-irish-soda...
Please come back here and let us know how it turns out, maybe with a photo or two!

Hello Irish kitchen members. I've just joined so I need to decide what recipe to submit first. I've written 10 Irish cookbooks (working on my 11th) so I have plenty of material. See more about me, my cookbooks, and my "FLavors of Ireland" tour scheduled for Oct. 7-15, 2014, on my website www.irishcook.com. Cheers for now!

I'll second that shout-out, Maryann! Margaret ... hope you'll post some of your favourite recipes here from time to time (without giving too much from your books away, of course). :-)
