I presume everyone knew that today was Potato Day ? It’s not like people in Ireland need any encouragement to eat more spuds, so I won’t begrudge the marketeers their day, since it meant that the internet was full of interesting recipes for cooking potatoes today. Pictured are my wife’s delicious fishcakes made from whitefish, scallions and potato, and served with black pudding and a little light reading (which shows how seriously we take potatoes in our house).
