Sue's Diner: Irish Soda Bread

This week's recipe for Irish Soda Bread is featured in the BryonySeries cookbook: Memories in the Kitchen: Bites and Nibbles from "Bryony," which is a permament fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties.

This particular recipe for this particular Irish Soda Bread is our very favorite bread for Calkins Day, which is Feb. 13.

What is Calkins Day? Here is a post that gives the basics.

Of course, this recipe is referenced in the BryonySeries novel Bryony. Here is the explanation from the cookbook:

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.

You can try the recipe for Irish Soda Bread on the Sue's Diner page on the BryonySeries website. 

But try the recipe this week. It will be gone some time next week. A new recipe will take it's place.

By the way, Sue's Diner is only real in the BryonySeries world. But didn't Timothy do a great job making the page look like a real menu at a vintage diner?

Here is the full diner page: bryonyseries.com/sue-s-diner. You can't really order, of course (wouldn't it be great if you could?).
