In Ireland, aperitifs and snacks are often served without bread or toast. The Irish are more accustomed to eating delicious salted crackers, which they serve with cheese, fresh fruit or tomato.
Crackers are nothing more than small savory cakes. The Irish (but also other British countries) appreciate its simple taste and crunchy texture, which can easily be combined with other flavors.
Crackers are usually accompanied by Irish cheddar, one of the country’s most popular cheeses!
But you can also enjoy them with a spreadable paste, based on fish rillettes for example, or with vegetables or fresh fruit (grapes, apples, etc.).
Crackers are readily available in Irish shops, at very economical prices (less than €1.50 for 30 crackers). Most local Irish pubs also serve crackers during happy hour, or when eagerly awaited matches are on.
In terms of taste, the crackers are deliciously simple. They can be nibbled on their own, or with their many accompaniments.
An aperitif that’s sure to be a hit with family and friends alike!
