Anyway, I've been craving colcannon for the past couple of weeks. It's an Irish dish I discovered a few years back that boils down to (ha! I'm keeping that!) mashed potatoes with shredded cabbage. It goes really well with salty, cured meats like ham, bacon and corned beef (mmmmm).
However, I'm not buying a lot of those pricier meats until I get my credit cards paid off. Time for some creative internet searching...

Thank you, Japan! |
It ends up with a texture very like country ham! It got a big stamp of approval from my guy, so I can definitely see this being repeated, and it complimented the colcannon nicely!
Maybe this blog will force me to learn how to take nice photos someday |
P. S. I made colcannon with red cabbage, since someone nabbed the entire crate of green while I was wandering the produce section. It tastes the same, and looks like purple Easter grass! Kinda fun. :)
*Please correct my pronoun if need be, maki!
