It seems like around this time of year everyone starts talking about making Irish-inspired dishes like colcannon or bangers and mash, both of which sound disgusting to me. St. Patricks day really does not mean much to me other than another excuse to drink cheap beer (and of course fun times on spring break Sophomore year) but anyway... back to cooking... Irish soda bread is another type of no-knead bread that comes together very quickly. The trick is getting it to be the right consistency so that it doesn't get too dry. This one actually turned out really well.
Recipe:
2 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 T sugar
1 c buttermilk
1/4 c butter, melted
Combine flour, salt, soda, and sugar in a mixing bowl. Make a hole in the flour mixture. In a separate bowl combine melted butter and buttermilk. Pour buttermilk mixture into the hole in the flour. Slowly mix together until just combined. Knead three or four times and then form into a circle. Make an X in the dough and bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for 25-30 minutes.
