Notes
While reading The Courtship by Anna Deforest, the heroine, an Irishwoman named Miranda, made Slumgullion stew, which from the remarks of the diners, must have been mouthwatering delicious. So, I looked up the recipe and found the one that sounded the most similar to the one described in the book. I wanted to share and also plan on cooking for myself soon!
