An extra post today, in honor of Ed Calkins, since the earlier one counted for yesterday. If only I could persuade Timothy to make some, but, no, he's been napping most of the day, while I slave away finishing up John's story in Before the Blood.
Melisa found it odd
that Irish soda bread was a Simons
Mansion staple, but since
John offered no explanation, she felt uncomfortable asking for one. We don’t
have the authentic recipe, but this one is just as good.
Irish Soda Bread
By Janet Cooney
½ cup margarine
½ cup sugar
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 1/3 cup buttermilk (or sour milk by putting 1 tablespoon
vinegar in a measuring cup and adding milk to exact measure)
1/3 cup yellow raisins
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together margarine and
sugar; add remaining ingredients. Grease 1 x 4 x 3-inch loaf pan. Bake for 1
hour or until toothpick comes out clean.
