From Barbara Rolek - Eastern European Food
The dough in this no-knead, one-rise recipe for
Hungarian Beer Bread can be formed into rolls or loaves, but I like them as sticks or pretzels best. Their crunch makes them good candidates for cocktails or, what else, more beer! Translate this into a healthier snack by using white whole-wheat flour instead of all-purpose.
If you swap pork for beef in this hearty Polish recipe for smoked pork butt and cabbage, you have a dead ringer for corned beef and cabbage. Leftovers can be turned into soup or another meal over noodles.

From Kevin Weeks - Cooking for Two
There is nothing more Irish than Guinness. Made using water from the Liffey River, it is one of the most famous beers (specifically a "stout") in the world. A staple of English (and Irish) pub fare is Steak and Guinness Pie, a wonderfully hearty meal on a cold and blustery March day. Be sure to buy an extra pint or two to wash down the pie.
From Cooking for Two
Corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick's Day is an American tradition, but the Irish were long famous for their corned beef. Corning your own beef requires starting a week in advance, but it couldn't be easier to do and is far superior to what you can buy at the supermarket. And cooking it is another good excuse for a pint or two of Guinness. From Cooking for Two

prior to baking.
