Irish Boxty
February 1 marks the Celtic pagan festival of Imbolc, which was later adopted as the feast of Ireland’s matron St. Brigid. The preparation of boxty is among a number of traditions observed on Imbolc. It is a simple potato pancake using mashed and/or grated potatoes. There are many iterations of this basic recipe, varying from county to county and even between households. Here’s how to make it
Migas
Migas is a wonderful dish enjoed in many different parts of Spain and Portugal, and can be prepared with either breadcrumbs or flour. It is said to have been introduced by shepherds as a way to use up whatever rations they had along with some remaining stale bread or flour while on the move. While not as well-known as paella, the dish is just as delicious and works very well when feeding a group.
