Irish Soda Bread
2 c flour
3/4 t baking soda
1 T sugar
6 T butter
1 c raisins
1/2 buttermilk
Mix together the flour, baking soda, and sugar. Cut the butter into the
flour mixture (rub the butter through your fingers, coating each bit with flour
mixture; keep this up until the mixture looks crumbly). Mix in the raisins.
Add in the buttermilk--you may need a bit more. Knead the dough a bit. Shape
into a round dome on a greased baking sheet. Cut an "x" across the top, then brush with a little milk. Bake at 375 deg for 40-50 minutes.
