It is legendary, but it is not mythical. The "Full Irish" indeed, is an important part of your Irish experience. Maybe it's not quite as important as the cup of tea (essential), but it's pretty important.
If you want to live long and be reasonably healthy, the Irish breakfast is a clear suspect. Vegetarians will think the Irish breakfast is disgusting. The only thing vegetarian about a full Irish breakfast is the tomato.
There should be a half-tomato (that's t'-MAH-to). The rest is mostly pork. There's the eggs, too. The oil may be vegetable, these days, before you start cooking.
First, there's the fruit juice and cereal, with brown bread and scone if you like, then the tea and toast appears, just to keep you going while the main event is cooking...go easy, or you'll be sorry.
Here it comes -
-A tomato half. Sometimes it's a slice, but to us that just doesn't seem quite right.
-Two Eggs, left running (but just right).
-A pair of sausages.
-A pair of bacon rashers. These are back bacon. It would be like what Americans call Canadian bacon. It's cut in a natural slice, 3 cm thick or so. It's shape is like an oblate piece connected to an oblong piece by strips of fat. Just eat it.
-A slice or two of each black puddin' and white puddin'. These 'puddings' are, of course, made of pork. They come in long thick sausage-like shapes, diameter about 2 inches (5, bent and crimped like sausages, tied at the ends, a closed horseshoe shape. Served, it's sliced about a finger thick, and fried (er, or, well sometimes broiled). It's good. The black is fairly dry, and mixes well with egg.
- Baked Beans
- Barry's Irish Tea
- Kerrygold Butter
and some more toast (Dark Irish Bread)
