Did you really think we couldn’t find a way to extend the luck o’ the Irish to the Pizza Clack column? For shame, you non-believers!
I don’t know about you, but I just can’t get excited about corned beef and cabbage, I don’t care what my last name is (which I married into anyway, so there’s really no connection). Corned beef is a truly weird flavor and texture for me, and the cabbage and potatoes are pretty flavorless. My taste buds want more!
It’s funny, because like Molly, I adore cabbage. Asian cole slaw, grilled or pan sauteed cabbage wedges and a little cooked cabbage in a stir-fry is delicious. There’s got to be a better way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day than corned beef and cabbage, right?
Penguin Pizza in Boston seems to think so. Their Corned Beef and Cabbage Pizza, the recipe of which is featured on Food Network, could very well be the Foodie way to enjoying a ho-hum dish. All the fixin’s of a St. Patty’s Day meal, on a bed of delectable dough: potato, corned beef, cabbage, pickling spices, topped with cheese, cheese and more cheese. That can’t suck.
I’m thinking I’d probably add a traditional red sauce to the pizza for some zing, although I suppose the right pickling spices would do that too.
Anyone trying Corned Beef and Cabbage Pizza this St. Patrick’s Day?
