Journal Jerry Smith's Journal: Haute cuisine 6
Simpel question: what ingredients belong in an Irish stew? Not a quiz, just want to know how to make an original stew that would be recognised as such by an Irishman. Can't find convincing stuff on this subject on the internot.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutspot [wikipedia.org] mentions a Dutch variety, hutspot, 'HUD-spot' (_U_ pronounced like the one in 'burn'). Hutspot originally doesn't involve meat, if it does it's mostly pork, and not necessarily the best parts, ehem.
Funny, Ireland is mentioned as using the potato since 1588, and the Netherlands since 1574. So Irish stew could be 'inspired' by hutspot.
I won't tell anyone ;c)
