Marie's Soda Bread

Recipe By :
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 12-12 Dec 2009

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups stirred unbleached flour
2 cups whole wheat flour -- (see note)
1/4 cup oat bran -- or wheat bran
1/4 cup packed brown sugar -- (see note)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup cold butter -- cubed
1 3/4 cups buttermilk -- (at room temperature)
1 egg -- (at room temperature)

Oven 375F for 50 - 55 minutes.

In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. With a pastry blender cut in the
butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg and buttermilk
and add all at once to flour mixture, stirring with a fork to make a soft
dough. Turn out and knead gently 10 times. Shape into a round ball and
place on a greased baking sheet. Cut a cross in the top. If preferred to
make two smaller loaves, reduce cooking time 10 minutes.

This time Marie added about half a cup of dried currents, which she plumped
in hot water and then dried again on paper towel. Or she also has added
shredded cheddar cheese occasionally.

This makes a wonderful bread and is exactly as the Irish have made it
for very many years.

This recipe originally came from my mother, who although born in Toronto
in 1888, while my grandparents were living there, returned to Belfast
soon after. She returned to Canada in 1906 with her mother and siblings
and met my father on that ship! So here is her original Irish soda bread
which Marie has been making for very many years.

Notes: we have been using East Indian Atta flour, instead of whole wheat as
it is also a whole wheat flour, but a more finely ground version. I doubt
that we will ever go back to any other whole wheat flour, this Atta flour
is that good.

We also have been using Splenda brown sugar blend ever since it became
available. Half the sugar!

Also have been using regular Splenda since it became available 20 years
ago, as I found that I was diabetic at the same time as Tate & Lyall
brought it to Canada, a number of years prior to introduction in USA. Still
alive and kicking after all that Splenda! :-)

Cheers,
Doug and Marie on Vancouver Island BC

Monastery Flan Paris Style - Flan a la Parisienne

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 12-12 Dec 2009

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 ounce sweet butter -- (unsalted) melted
4 cups milk -- mixed with
a vanilla bean for a few hours before
1 tablespoon Napoleon brandy

Place the flour into a deep bowl. Make a hollow place in the center and put
the sugar into it. Break the eggs into the bowl, add the melted butter and
mix thoroughly by hand or with the help of a mixer.

Gradually add the milk while continuing the process of mixing until the
texture is totally smooth. Add the brandy and mix some more.

Butter a flan mold thoroughly and pour the mixture into it. Place the mold
into a larger pan containing water so that half the flan mold is immersed
in the water to cook au bain-marie. Place this into the oven. Bake at 350F
for about 40 minutes.

Unmold the flan and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
