As I mentioned before I lived in Ireland during my first two years of college. The first bread I ever baked was there and it was, obviosuly, Irish soda bread.
My friend Katha gave me the recipe and I've used it lots of times. It's a bit different than Baking with Julia's recipe, basically because it's sweeter and it has yogurt instead of milk but both are delicious!
I love the simplicity of Irish soda bread and how it's almost impossible to get it wrong. The best way to eat it is toasted with some oil or butter on top. JUST.SO.GOOD!
Oh and I also made a small version of the bread!
Again, I'm sorry for the quality of the pictures, I'll have my camera back soon!!
You can see the recipe in this month's hosts: Cathy of MyCulinaryMission and Carla of Chocolate Moosey

ResponderEliminarThis wasn't one of my better efforts, but your bread looks great. And the photos are beautiful, too.

ResponderEliminarThis looks yummy. I still have time to make it!
ResponderEliminarI love the little loaf! Thanks for letting me know I posted a day early. I used the scheduler and must have clicked on the wrong day. Will be up tomorrow!
ResponderEliminarLove the maxi and mini loaf. Both look delicious. If you spent a couple of years in Ireland, it DOES make you a "little bit Irish". You obviously have the touch. Nice work. Mary Hirsch

ResponderEliminaryours came out really well... i love the way you've cut it!! Infact the next day..even I made a mini version of the bread.. should have taken photographs of it!!:)
ResponderEliminarYou got such a gorgeous golden colour on your bread. My oven burns the bottom and doesn't brown the top - crazy.
ResponderEliminarWhat amazing looking bread. Congrats! That looks so delicious and I'm sure it would be great with so many things like antipasta, risotto, pasta and soups. xx

So jealous of our loaves - they look wonderful and nicely risen! You can tell you'r a bread baker. :) Beautiful!
ResponderEliminarYour pictures are so good, ok, maybe not as you want, but believe me, it made me wish a slice of that bread.
ResponderEliminarGreat looking bread! I like the way so sliced the whole loaf so nicely and layed them out. The crumb of the bread looks super, and it does have a pretty yellow color to it in the picture. You are lucky to get to live in several different countries. I'd love to have that experience!
ResponderEliminarWhat a beautiful looking bread - your presentation of it is simply stunning :D
ResponderEliminarI would buy a loaf at this moment!
