Feeding Yourself 101, Tuesday, First Period
Raiden was, of course, wearing green today, because he didn't like being pinched. "Happy St. Patrick's Day!" he greeted his class. "For those of you who might not know, St. Patrick's Day honors the patron saint of Ireland in the Catholic religion, but even those who aren't Catholic or Irish can celebrate, because who doesn't love a themed holiday with lots of drinking?
"In America, with its large Irish immigrant population, the traditional foods of St. Patrick's Day include beer, green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and Irish soda bread. I figure you can all put green food coloring in beer on your own time, so let's learn to make the others. Corned beef and cabbage is great to put in your slow cooker: you're basically going to throw everything in and forget it all day, then enjoy a delicious dinner. Let's cut up some vegetables!" Once that was done, Raiden moved on to, "Yes, we're making bread today. It's soda bread, which means it's a quick bread! You don't have to wait around on yeast! So follow along with me as we make the recipe, and I promise we'll get there.
"And there you have it! A delicious Irish-American feast really isn't that hard, and what you do to your beer is between you and your God. Any questions?"
