St. Patrick's Day?! セントパトリックデー?!

今日の晩御飯は「コーンビーフとキャベツの煮込み」

We are going to have 'Corned Beef with Cabbage' for dinner tonight.


にんじんも with carrots

地元のスーパーで安くなってたんだもん・・・(だってセントパトリックデーは3・17だもん)

Corned Beef was on sale...Well, St. Patrick's Day is March 17th as you know...

なんでセントパトリックデーになるとコーンビーフ食べるんだろう??

I was always wondering why many people in America eat Corned Beef dish on St. Patrick's Day...

グーグルタイム。

Google time.
Why do many people eat corned beef on St. Patrick's Day?
Originally Corned Beef and Cabbage was a traditional dish served for Easter Sunday dinner in rural Ireland. The beef, which was salted or brined during the winter to preserve it, could then be eaten after the long, meatless Lenten fast. Since the advent of refrigeration, the trend in Ireland is to eat fresh meats. Today this peasant dish is more popular in the United States than in Ireland. Irish-Americans and lots of other people eat it on St. Patrick's Day, Ireland's principal feast day, as a nostalgic reminder of their Irish heritage.
なるほど!
Good to know!
食後のデザートはもちろんこれ。
