Irish Potato Candy

A bit of a misnomer, these candies contain no potato or are from Ireland! They have Philadelphia roots and resemble an adorable spud and no heat is required. The inside is a mixture of coconut and cream cheese and they get their festive green color from Matcha green tea. A quick roll in some cinnamon and these bite size treats are great for any St. Patrick's Day celebration.

Irish Rarebit

10 min

What is Rarebit anyway? Think beer and cheese fondue on toast. A perfect snack for a St. Patrick's Day buffet, this Irish twist on a classic is boldly spiced with mustard and Worcestershire powders and, of course, a spot of Guinness. Rye bread gives the toast a stand-up flavor of earthy caraway and molasses. Hot out of the oven, add a crack of Smoked Black Pepper and a sprinkle of green parsley for the finish. Serve while hot and keep the rounds coming for a parade of flavor. The base ingredients are simple and you may already have them in your pantry. 

Porcini Soda Bread

Irish soda bread is one of the easiest quick breads to make, and it's very adaptable. Whole wheat, oats and rye flours make this a hearty loaf. For this version, we added a full complement of umami with earthy Porcini Pieces mushrooms and our bestselling Cascade Mushroom Mix. From there, we wanted to add some chewy bites, so sweet dried apricots and tart cherries made it into the mix as well. If you don't have dried tart cherries, dried cranberries are equally delicious in this soda bread. The end result was a delicious and hearty bread to brighten your St. Patrick's Day celebration, or to serve with soups or stews.
