Irish Soda Bread
Irish Soda Bread <p><a href="/videos/profiles/about-dermot-quinn">Dermot Quinn</a> of <a href="http://www.greenhillsirishbakery.com/">Greenhills Bakery</a> in Dorchester, MA, shares his Granny Murphy's long-protected Irish Soda Bread recipe. Classified as a quick-bread, it is leavened with baking soda (hence the name), and gets its moisture from low-fat buttermilk. Dermot mixes in plump raisins, but also suggests caraway (although he notes the Irish don't prefer caraway seeds), or other dried fruits. This recipe makes 4 loaves, and bakes perfectly when placed directly in the oven from the freezer. Save a couple of loaves for a future lazy weekend brunch.</p>

    I love to cook... but I've always been afraid of baking bread. Not anymore! this recipe looks super simple and i love that it barely requires any kneading. I'm a big fan of raisins so I'll be trying this recipe soon!
