Loved this soup but I made some changes. Since no one in the US has Irish bacon, I used regular. I skipped the butter and sauteed the onion and potatoes in the bacon fat, added an extra spud, used tarragon instead of the bay leaves, and used regular green cabbage. I only blended 2/3 of the soup since I like a little "chunk". Finally I put the crushed bacon as a garnish in the middle of the bowl when served. Excellent!
Bacon and Cabbage Soup
This meaty, comforting soup is adapted from chef Paul Flynn of the Tannery in Dungarvan, Ireland.

FROM THE
RECIPE:
In Ireland, boiled bacon and cabbage is a domestic staple. The bacon is usually a "collar" or shoulder, a moderately marbled cut with less fat than American bacon but a bit more than Canadian. The ingredients are boiled together and served with potatoes and a parsley cream sauce.
