Colcannon
Colcannon is a hearty comfort food traditionally made of mashed potatoes, cabbage, scallions and cream. It’s still widely enjoyed in Ireland, particularly on Halloween.
There are a handful of ancient, playful traditions surrounding colcannon, one of which involves concealing both a ring and a thimble in the mixture. If you discover the ring, you are destined for marriage. The dreaded thimble dooms you to a life of spinsterhood.
