Bacon and Cabbage · Dublin

Cured pork loin (Irish bacon collar) gently boiled with savoy cabbage, carrots and floury potatoes, served with a yellow parsley-mustard sauce. The pre-corned-beef Irish national plate, eaten Sundays for centuries.

Bacon and cabbage was the canonical Irish Sunday dinner long before Irish-American emigrants substituted corned beef in 19th-century New York. The Irish bacon used is collar, gently brined for a week; not American streaky bacon. Dublin gastropubs The Greenhouse, Bastible and Delahunt all keep the dish on the winter menu.
