Reviews
“This recipe is as close to my grandmothers recipe. She was very irish and it was the only thing i can remember that my family made that tasted good. The salty rich ham flavor penitrates everything and the broth is delicous. So good you soak it up with homemade soda bread it is awesome.”
“I forgot my stars. Silly me.”
“very good lots of leftovers when cooking for 2 “
“A lot like the ham and cabbage stew that’s been passed down in my Irish family for generations. Only we don’t use the herbs…just lots of salt and pepper. Definitely a good use for leftover Easter ham.”
