My thoughts:

Growing upward I had a friend who's mom would build homemade candy for every holiday. Tons of fudge for Christmas, homemade candy eggs at Easter as good as at St. Patrick's Day, Irish Gaelic Gaelic Potato Candy. I hadn't thought of them inward years but afterward passing the remnants of the St Patrick's Day parade this weekend, I got to thinking about how foreign it was that I come upwards across therefore many references to corned beef as good as cabbage; whiskey, beer as good as Irish Gaelic Gaelic soda breadstuff this 4th dimension of twelvemonth but no real scream of Irish Gaelic Gaelic Potato Candy. I came habitation family as good as googled it as good as it turns out at that topographic request is a fighting I don't psyche much nearly the candy; it is a regional procedure primal to Philadelphia! Well, Baltimore is not Philadelphia but we are simply 1 1/2 hrs due south as good as select a practiced sized Irish-American population therefore it makes experience they'd trickle downward here, fifty-fifty if inward simply inward homemade form. Despite their name, they don't select potatoes inward them, they are coconut candies rolled inward cinnamon to mimic a tater pulled fresh from the ground, nonetheless covered inward dirt.

This article inward Serious Eats gives a practiced overview of the history of the candy as good as a behind-the-scenes peek at the Oh Ryan's Irish Gaelic Gaelic Potato manufactory inward Linwood, Pa. I made mine to the best of my memory amongst a flake of a tweak: instead of simply cinnamon, I coated them inward unsweetened cocoa as well. I similar cinnamon, but straightaway cinnamon is a flake overwhelming. You could as good dip them inward simply cocoa powder, the resultant testament fit upward the same. I did read nearly cream cheese versions, but I am for sure the ones I had years agone did not business office cream cheese therefore used heavy cream instead. The lack of cream cheese as good way these tin fit upward stored at room temperature, inward a sealed, air-tight container, upward to 5 days but I testament say they are best consumed the firstly shout out upwards solar daytime or two.
