Guinness has been my drink of choice for many years but I hate it when once day a year you suddenly get thousands of people drinking it and obviously not particularly enjoying it either. Bloody glory supporters!
Happy St Paddy's day to all the Irish Hammers out there.

A thread about drinking on paddies' day and the two openly females on the site discuss cooking recipes.
Stereotype?

I am not at all Irish, used to hang around with a lot of Irish people so celebrated with them. Used to go to The Duke Of Wellington in Bromley-by-Bow

Unlike most people in this country who celebrate this day; I've actually got a proper MICKY background on both sides of my family (mainly from Limerick, Kerry and Dublin).
I won't be going on the piss for this as I never do.
I was born here, after all. Mind you, I couldn't give a fuck about St George's Day either.

You're welcome. Hope you enjoy it. As Fivetide said, it's brilliant with soup.

Ok.
500g of plain white flour or a mix of plain white and brown.
2 teaspoons of bicarb
1 teaspoon of salt.
Sieve the above together into a large mixing bowl.
Add up to 400ml of buttermilk. Add 350 at first then add the last 50mm if you need it.
Mix very quickly to a dough using a palette or other wide blade knife. Flour your hands and finish bringing it together. It will be a bit sticky, not stretchy and smooth like yeast bread dough in its last stage before the oven. Work QUICKLY or you will lose the rise.
Get it onto a baking sheet and flatten it with the heel of your hand to around one and a half inches thick and 8 inches round, score a deepish cross into it right the way across. Give it a light dusting of flour if you want.
Bake it at 200 degrees (whatever the equivalent is) for 40 minutes.
When it comes out of the oven, wrap it up in two clean tea towels to steam and soften the crust for about ten to fifteen mins.
Don't guess with the quantities. Measure precisely using measuring spoons, scales, etc.

Whenever I make this (normally for soup) I never have buttermilk, so have to put lemon juice in normal milk for 15 minutes or so. Seems to do the same job though.

My kids prefer white soda bread. I make it at least twice a week. It's not 'just bread' like the stuff you buy in the shops. It isn't made with yeast. It rises due to the reaction of bicarbonate of soda and the acid in buttermilk. For that reason you can make it very quickly because it doesn't need proving. In fact, if you let it sit (proof) the bread would fall flat on its arse as you need to get it in the oven ASAP after the bicarbonate and buttermilk meet. It has a different taste and texture to yeast bread.

Soda bread is lovely with tea and jam or you can have it with salmon and mackerel.
It is basically a loaf of brown bread

I'll be drinking 2 pints of Abbot in the Golden Lion as a further reminder of how great it is to be English, with not one thought for the feral breed of people from the other side of the Irish Sea.
