It’s nice to see that some favorite Irish recipes, such as potato cakes and brown bread, have made it to Twitter.
Here are some of the shortest and most simple explanations of recipes I’ve ever seen. In just 140-characters (the number which the social networking site permits) these good folks have spelt out some quite complicated recipes.
Okay, so some of these recipes might not be traditional but they’re certainly recipes that are eaten and cooked regularly in Ireland.
Here’s our pick of Irish favourites:
