For the Boxty Bites:

- 1/2 cup Tipperary Vintage Irish Cheddar, shredded
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped

Instructions
For the Boxty Bites:
- Peel and chop the potatoes into quarters. Place in a large pot and fill with enough water to submerge the potatoes. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until they are fork tender.
- Drain and transfer the potatoes to a large bowl.
- Mash the potatoes until fluffy.
- Add the cornstarch, cheddar, salt, pepper, and chives. Thoroughly mix until combined.
- Using a cookie scooper, roll the boxty bites.
- You can fry these in a cast-iron pan with oil or air fry for 15 minutes at 400 degrees F.
Assembly:
- For the Irish Soda Bread crackers, I gently roll out the sliced bread to press and flatten. Then I slice 'cracker squares' out and toast them in the toaster oven or air fryer.
- Place all the ingredients for the grazing board on your desired platter or board alongside the Boxty bites and crackers for the ultimate Irish appetizer board. Serve and Enjoy!
