Irish Shepherd’s Pie (the real one, not the stuff they eat in cottages)
Irish Shepherd’s Pie (the real one, not the stuff they eat in cottages) is a dish consisting of two mandatory ingredients: potatoes and lamb. The ground beef version is also very delicious, but does not qualify as “Shepherd’s Pie” since shepherds raise sheep, not cows. The mystery remains as to why the beef version is referred to as “Cottage Pie,” rather than “Cowboy Pie” or “Rancher’s Pie.”
This dish makes a lovely alternative to the more common corned beef and cabbage which may have been planned for dinner. Using Irish cheddar, such as “Dubliner” by Kerrygold, can be found in most large grocery stores will help to make the dish truly authentic. Enjoy!

As many discerning grocery shoppers know, Irish butter – particularly Kerrygold – rules over all. It’s silky, creamy, and just the right balance of salty and sweet. But what makes Irish butter so udder-ly superior to bland American varieties? For one, it’s the color. Irish butter is often a satisfying shade of yellow that’s deeper than most regular butter brands.
