Irish Soda Bread is a quick bread that does not require yeast, instead all of its leavening comes from baking soda, and buttermilk. The recipe we use has been passed down several generations and has been cherished by friends and family for years. The texture is dense, yet soft, and has the most incredible crusty exterior. Each bite is moist and chewy with fruity explosions of flavor. Served best at room temperature with melted butter, or your favorite jam or marmalade. This also makes a great companion to your hearty soups or stews.
