One of the things I am doing this weekend is practicing baking soda bread. As there is a UN day at day care next week we are asked if we would be willing to bring in something edable from our culture for the kids to enjoy. As Ickle Pickle is half Irish I asked her father what would be an Irish thing that small kids would enjoy and he said soda bread. So that’s what I am going for.
We got a familiy recipie sent over from Ireland and some nice videos of how they usually make it. I will have to experiment a little as the products we have here are comparable, but not excactly the same.
Another thing that is different is the units in the recipie, so I had to have the internet available to convert it for me ro make sure I got the right amounts. Hopefully the tablespoons are the same.
We enjoyed it with some butter and jam. It turned out really nice, but a little too dense so I will try again tomorrow with a different ratio of fine and corse flour.
What are you up to today?

The thoughts and life of me 
Enjoy making the soda bread. I have not made it myself. But I have bought some before and enjoyed.
It was quite easy to make
The bread looks good! I have never tasted sodabread. I’ll dive into it a bit more (not litterally of course 🙂 )
I have never seen it outside Ireland. But I have enjoyed eating it there
You can’t beat a good Irish soda bread. I have made this many times and it always disappears before it is cool. Have a good Saturday. Allan
I love this recipe! It reminds me of the time we went to a Rome-themed dinner and they bring the bread out looking exactly as yours does – BUT they have cooked it with strings on the top where you made the cross…and you each pull one string and it cuts the bread into four pieces! This weekend is all about exploring New York and eating at Frank Sinatra’s favorite restaurant here called Patsy’s – and yes, I will be sharing that story! Have a great weekend!
Sounds like a great weekend. Looking forward to reading all about it!
I have never heard of soda bread and would love to try yours, Maja! It looks delicious. Happy weekend! 😊
Thank you. Hope your weekend treats you well
You are welcome, and all is well here in the cold desert this morning. 🥶
Looks good! Soda breads are usually denser than breads made with yeast dough. If you want to try another recipe, with different types of flour, check the following link. 🙂
