s always, Elana from Elana’s Pantry is being adventurous in the kitchen. I can’t say that I’ve ever had Irish Soda Bread, but this one is something that I’d be willing to give a try.

“As a Jew, Irish Soda Bread would not be something that comes naturally to me. However, over the years, I’ve received numerous requests for a gluten free, dairy free, gum free, high protein Irish Soda Bread. Well, here you have it.
Given that all things Irish are not my native habitat, I had to do some research to actually figure out what Irish Soda Bread is. Here’s what Wikipedia had to say about it:
“Soda bread are a variety of quick bread traditionally used in a variety of cuisines in which bread soda (otherwise known as sodium bicarbonate or baking soda) is used as a raising agent rather than the more common yeast. The ingredients of traditional soda bread are flour, bread soda, salt, and buttermilk. Other ingredients can be added such as raisins, egg or various forms of nuts.”
I also looked to Elise from Simply Recipes for inspiration. She’s my online version of the Joy of Cooking, as she has recipes for just about every dish you can think of and gives interesting and informative tips along with those recipes…”
