Kohl Cannon or Colcannon image

This recipe is courtesy of my Scottish roots. Kohl Cannon can be made in various ways, depending on whether you are Irish, German, or Scottish. No matter how it is made, the eating of Kohl Cannon was a common custom on Halloween. In it would be buried, well wrapped in waxed paper or foil for today's world, 4 favors. A penny (for wealth), a button (for poverty), a ring (for marriage, and a matchstick (for spinsterhood). Much excitement was aroused, especially among the young lassies who were hopeful that the Kohl Cannon would foretell their future happiness! This recipe is the Scot's Way!

I'm not a big fan of cabbage, but I really enjoyed this dish. The mashed potatoes and bacon helped to balance out the flavor of the cabbage.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler colcannon recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my colcannon turned out too dry. I think I should have added more milk or butter.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more salt and pepper.
