I love it plain :)Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419620659567929127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359313870422520118.post-84894687462741966752012-07-17T14:25:51.244-06:002012-07-17T14:25:51.244-06:00I'd love more suggestions on what to add to th...I'd love more suggestions on what to add to this. I'm not a big fan of craisins or raisins. Could I do jam instead of something chunky? Are dried fruits best, rather than something like chopped fresh strawberries? I've always wanted to try a soda bread, but I've never known what to put in it instead of cranberry.~GINGER~https://www.blogger.com/profile/15238078601460283355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8359313870422520118.post-87547145830277780542012-07-17T04:48:30.760-06:002012-07-17T04:48:30.760-06:00I think I got this recipe from our neighbors in Co...I think I got this recipe from our neighbors in Colorado... The Scheiks... I also have a recipe for Irish Soda Bread that I got from Yvonne Kirshner, who really is 100% Irish. She is the one that tried opening an Irish bakery in Salt Lake City. Her recipe is more traditional, uses fresh whole wheat, lemon juice instead of buttermilk, no raisins.. dried currants are the authentic addition. It isn't nearly as yummy, but really "healing" and good for you. This is one recipe that I dig my baking stone out for. I rarely use the baking stone for anything else these days. A remnant from the Pampered Chef craze.SGarneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09638688234173152660noreply@blogger.com
