Welcome to the Celtnet Welsh (Cymric) Recipes Home Page

Welcome to Celtnet's Welsh (Cymric) Recipes Page — This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the Welsh (Cymric) recipes added to this site. These recipes represent my culture and my heritage. Many of these are the recipes of my childhood and they are given here bilingually.

These recipes, for the most part, originate in Wales or are recipes from the colony in Patagonia. Otherwise they are modern recipes incorporating traditional ingredients.

As a predominantly agrarian tenant economy much of the traditional cooking of Wales reflects this heritage. Traditional food tends to be simple, utilizing readily-available ingredients and those cuts of meat that were not readily saleable. Of late, however, many chefs have begun re-examining and re-interpreting these dishes. Novel dishes, incorporating local ingredients but using international techniques have also begun to appear on the culinary scene and though the overall list of dishes is biased towards the traditional some of these later dishes are also presented here. Enjoy...


As well as the list of recipes presented below you can also fetch Welsh recipes by meal type via these links:
