📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Coddle means 'to simmer gently,' a dish made in Dublin's working-class homes since around the 18th century. It was made on Saturday nights from leftover sausages and bacon and is said to have been a weekend treat after meatless Catholic Fridays. It's served with soda bread.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a Saturday night in a Dublin terraced-house kitchen, a pot bubbles gently and father, home from the pub, takes a steaming bowl.
