Irish Soda Bread
I’m running out of time to post all the recipes I’ve got on my list for St. Patrick’s Day, so I thought I’d better squeeze in this version of Irish soda bread. Last year, I posted my go-to recipe for a traditional Irish bread. Today’s post for Irish soda bread has a texture that is more similar to a dessert bread and is equally good in its own right.
For the past several years, I’ve made both types of Irish bread for home and for work. Besides making a traditional corned beef and cabbage meal at home, my group at work makes it for a special lunch. They were trying to decide whether to have it today or Monday and chose Monday when they found out I was off today. I promised I would show up Monday with the Irish breads!
I’m enjoying all things Irish this week. This past weekend, I made a fabulous chocolate stout cake with a Bailey’s Irish Cream white chocolate frosting. Yesterday I had a corned beef sandwich for lunch at a local restaurant which was absolutely delicious. Last night after a Spartan supper, Roger and I had a piece of Irish soda bread for dessert, slathered with butter.
If I can manage it, I’ve got one more new recipe to try before St. Patrick’s Day that has me drooling. What can I say? It’s been a bad carb week!
