Happy St. Patrick's Day!
It is hard to believe it has been 4 years since I last drank with my buddies down in Gainesville! I never could drink very much, but the camraderie could not be beat! I miss you all!! Here is my recipe for Irish Soda Bread
4 cups flour
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
1-1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1-1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp soft butter
Mix all together and blend the butter in with your hands.
Add 1-3/4 cup buttermilk and blend with a fork until it comes together. Do not overwork the dough!!! Pour bread out of the bowl and press together in a sprayed cast iron skillet or a pie pan. Mark an "X" on the top with a knife.
Bake at 400 for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and butter top with 2 tbsp(or more)of butter. You are supposed to let it cool for 30 minutes, but I can never wait long enough to do that!!
