Not the typical recipe i.e .flour,salt,baking Soda and Butter milk(which does work fine)but none the less the end product turned out impressive.👍
I have seen some of ur veg rcp...all r awesome. In all kind of bread rcp u have not given any measurement....which is making it difficult to bake.Thank you
Everyone's still waiting around for "excruciating" info, related to buttermilk substitutes, in the recipe page. With my lactose intolerance, I'd go for diluted thick yogurt or sour cream... Which of these - if any - would you favor, pls ? Thanks for answering a Paris-based dedicated follower of your great "cooking-means-zest-for-life" (highly therapeutic, btw) program! I'd go as far as translating into French subtitles, people here do suffer extra historically (& culturally) - issued severe culinary inhibitions... 👍
Just wanted to mention that on the Food Wishes blog page, the video for this recipe doesn't show up with the actual recipe.
I don't think it is traditional soda bread. Looks more like a scone recipe, which could explain why he likes it ;)
Well I'm Irish and Chef John I love ur channel :) Soda bread is made all over Ireland and every recipe differs in every family and in every restaurant so there is no right way or no wrong way ..You did a great job and I love it recipe a chef John :)
The wreck of the Donna Fitzgerald
Food Wishes is one of the few channels whose videos I watch to the end, so I can see if Chef John will sing "En-joy!" in tune. ;-)
Sachin Shukla exactly!! You are NOT alone on that. He nearly hit the note on the falafel one if I remember correctly!! Tricky when his jazzy piano is being overdubbed- maybe he’s a really good singer but can’t hear the piano... I like his vids so much- he can sing sharp or flat as long as he doesn’t stop making vids!
Chef John, I watched a few of your other bread videos and really enjoyed them, I was not sure though that they would work until I watched this video. I grew up in a bakery and have managed/owned a few, your Soda bread recipe is quite close to the one I used for years. While I only used raisins in mine, every step brought back fond memories. I would make about 5000 (Yes, thousand) loaves every St Patrick's day for the folks in San Francisco. Thanks for this!
Sean Owens wow!
I just made this for my St. Patrick's Day dinner party and it was a hit. I didn't use raisins or currants. I did use the tangerine zest, but I added some chopped pistachio nuts. It almost had a pumpernickel taste. It was really good. And you will be happy to know the pistachio nuts did not fall to the bottom.
Ah just love listening to you explain everything. Even if I'm not actually making anything, you just sound so happy and it cheers me right up. Can't wait to make this some time. Looks good!!
I've made this repeatedly over the years, and it's a great all-purpose bread -- good for toast, sandwiches, etc. I make it less sweet (only 1Tbsp honey), use craisins instead of raisins/currants (because it's what I have on hand), and I shape it like a loaf instead of a circle. My family loves it. Thanks Chef John!
i used a few leftover persian dried fruits and from my persian saffron and carrot rice cherries and currents and turned out great.
I went looking for an Irish soda bread recipe for tomorrow. I should have known you already had a video posted on this. Thanks to you Chef John, I will now be the Bobby Flay of my family's St. Patrick's Day. See what I did there?
I love your kind and lyrical voice.
Love the way you present and the humor is top notch
I made this last night with out the oats (my daughter is allergic) and I added craisins since I couldn’t find any currants in the stores. It came out friggin fantastic. I cannot wait to make this again!
John, I love your videos. Not only are the recipes amazing, But I love your rhymes and jokes. As a dad you make dad jokes like no other.
That line - "I don't wanna St. Paddy myself on the back ..." still cracks me up!
I always soak the currents or raisins for about 15 minutes in the buttermilk before mixing them in. Plumps the little guys up.
Smart!
FleurPillager
Ah, nice! When dealing with raisins, I usually leave them in sugared water instead. I'll try buttermilk this time! Wait, I thought chef John asked for "dried" fruits...?
Or in some whiskey. Plumping raisins even in water makes a huge difference to in tastiness.
Wonder if you could soalk the currents in Irish Whiskey?
I look forward to every video you produce, chef John, and this was no exception. Great recipe, perfect puns and excellent rhyming with the CSN line. 10/10.
There are few things more enjoyable than a slice of Irish soda bread with real butter.
And cheese 🇮🇪😎🇮🇪
Thank you very much Chef John, I enjoy your sense of humor and of course your recipes.
*My recipe for this year my friend, and I THANK YOU!*
I'm lovin the Irish puns 😂 I made this last year for St. Patrick's Day my family loved it! ☘️
One of my favorites without a doubt
Amazing sharing ! My daughter made it today and shared the recipe and link with me ! It looks so tempting !
Made it, came out great. Thank you for the detailed instructions.
I honestly enjoyed this video. You explained everything perfectly, your voice was nice to listen to and the bread came out lovely!
I made this bread. Yummy. It turned out perfect. Nice and moist on the inside with a nice thin crust on the outside. Best bread I ever made. Thank you for such a delicious recipe.
LOL at "st. Paddy myself on the back" hahaha! Great recipe I need to try, every single thing I try of yours comes out amazingly so THANK YOU! (Now everyone loves my French baguettes and my pie crust- I made rhubarb-peach pie with it!)
Did my eyes and ears deceive me? There was no mention or addition of our favorite ingredient - cayenne! Actually, this is a beautiful simple recipe Chef John - definitely worth the baking!!
I really need to stop watching these videos after 1AM.
They are as tasty at every other time. ;)
CologneCarter It's more that at 1AM being hungry is bad because everything is closed and it's too late to cook. D:
Corinn Heathers x
It’s food porn.
LOLOL Corinn! And here it is 3:13 am and dang if I aint heading to the kitchen to take inventory for Irish Soda Bread! LOL!!
Make this every year since I came across this unique Irish Soda Bread. Thank you Chef John!
Hi Chef John, I love all your recipes and videos. I have never made Irish Soda Bread before and decided to try your recipe. My hubby said the "perfect" word. Actually, he said it was PERFECT. Not only is your recipe delicious but my whole house smelled heavenly. Thanks for sharing the love. 🍀
Good evening dear chef John. Gorgoues recipe, thank 💕 ♥️ you
Well I'm not going to get all up on my high horse about your potato and drinking comments about us Irish as we all know they were tongue and cheek, plus my profile picture would not support any such argument :D
So yea, never seen that recipe before. Way more complicated than my own.
I just mix 500g of both Flour and Natural Yoghurt, 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt, mix together with as little work as possible, cross on the top and throw in oven. From start to finish (excluding pre-heating the oven) it can be done in less than 5 mins, inc cleaning up.
Oh and yes, the cross is obligatory, its the law
Thank god you said that ever saw soda made like that in my life, Belfast northern Ireland x
Again guys I've never seen soda bread made like that. Mine would be more like yours Ethnod. I'm a Portadown guy myself for my sins
I’ve made soda bread (no fruit) several times before, and it has been really dry every time except ONE. I’m getting ready to make Chef John’s recipe tonight...we’ll see how it turns out for me.
My brown bread, on the other hand, is always spectacular. I prefer to make muffins instead of a single loaf, and I sweeten it a LOT - and I include fresh blueberries. It cooks much faster (about 15 minutes), and the doneness is always more consistent than when I put it in a tin.
Sadly for me, I’m not from Ireland. We’ve taken vacations in the southern half of the Republic for the last two years (the M6 between Galway and Dublin is about as far north as we’ve been), and we just returned to the US from Ireland last week. Beautiful land, people, food, and culture!
Enniskillen here and yous are right. This is just American's messing up our traditions as usual.
@@CannabrannaLammer Not far from Enniskillen myself. Nope definitely not a traditional Irish Soda bread.
This was the most delicious Irish Bread I ever made and I've been making it for my entire adult life. I'm making it for New Year's 2016.
And as aaalways, I looove it 🥰 ...🤗... thank you chef John! 😘
This was a great recipe! Chef you never fail to deliver!
I find your videos very enjoying. Thanks for the good recipes and your cooking expertise.
Hello
It worked fine, tastes great and so easy to make...
Thanks for the video
Kay
+Dagobert1234 Good on ya for reporting an actual try of the recipe!
I've never had Irish Soda Bread, but I was thinking this looks like it would make THE most awesome french toast, with all those raisins, yum!
Love your recipes.. they always work out perfectly. Thanks for all the tips and the humour too ! ( I am crazy over your various recipes for chicken wings.. sooo delish !)
First thing tomorrow! Btw, if you wet the knife, it will slide smoothly. A smooth and very very sharp knife will do a great job!
Thanks for the recipe!
I just made this and the crumb was perfect, moist and delicate! I soaked the currants and raisins in a shot of scotch, some apple cider, and some hot water for a few hours before baking to plump them up. I also substituted 1/4 cup of the white flour for rye flour, along with the whole wheat Chef John already used, and I took a cue from Melissa Clark's recipe and added some caraway seeds.
Love the voice over. It's fun and encouraging. Great job!
I could eat this all day, soda bread is so good
I have never before worried about an aftertaste of baking powder or baking soda in my baking, but I will from this point forward. Thanks, Chef John.
I've been making an Irish Soda Bread recipe that my mother got from her mother. But, this one looks excellent and I'll be making it this weekend. Thanks
This is the absolute best soda bread recipe online, probably also offline. The addition of egg makes its structure a lot better than others and it makes it really moist.
Thanks Chef John! I've always wanted to make this bread! Can't wait to try it.
Super easy to make and it smells wonderful. I can't wait to cut into it once it cools.
Great video! Reminds me of my Granny. The local honey thing is not true, but it almost makes sense! Wish it were that easy to deal with allergies...
Well, 8 years later I found your video. I’ve looked at about a dozen other videos, including Americas Test Kitchen, and your methodology and explanations make a lot sense. I found another recipe that includes Irish Whiskey 🥃. Probably a bit before, in and after the recipe 😉
I made this today, except I didn't have any currants, so I used dried cranberries.
And it was amazing.
LMFAO "Ward off the devil." Hardest I've laughed on food wishes, thanks Chef John.
It's true, we cut a cross in the bread (we don't call it an X) to release the devil.. Same as hot cross buns (which are made around Easter)!
Seriously. Except, I did laugh harder at the beginning of his "Nipples Of Venus" video. OMG. Sometimes I play just the first part of that video, if I'm feeling low. 💖
Thanks John ~ I'm retired now, but I remember those 47 years in the biz. 200 lbs. of Corned Beef & still ran out!!!
Thank you for this recipe. I made it today and it almost looked as good as yours. I also had it with Irish butter. It was delicious.
A CSN reference...you are officially my favorite!
This is gold Chef John, My kids and I love your videos, Thank you for this recipe my family will be baking this on St. Patrick's Day.
If you have no buttermilk .add teaspoon of lemon juice to milk works perfectly. Thank me later .blessings from Ireland 🇮🇪😎🇮🇪
Apparently, you can freeze a stick of butter and grate it finely into the dry ingredients
i was just thinking if that would be suitable. definitely won't be able to find one of those pastry things where i live
Joseph just use your hands, if you crumble the pieces with your fingers it will have the same effect
@@UKTopGun .... should probably be “cold hands”, right?
@@NEILZEE11 cold butter, just from the fridge and use your hands
@@NEILZEE11 soak them in a sinful of ice water for 5 minutes first😉
Everything you do is amazing!
I ended a lifetime of terrible cravings for breads and various baked goods by doing my own baking; the hallmark of which is Irish Soda Bread. Why this should be I have no idea but I love it.
You deserve so much love !
I love the crust on soda bread but it you prefer a softer crust wrap the bread in a tea towel as it cools.
Adding the grated lemon or orange or tangerine is what makes this so delicious. When I make it tomorrow, I plan to use maple syrup (because I'm from northern New England and don't have any honey). I plan to add golden raisins along with the currants and go light on the caraway seed.
dang. two years late finding this comment...I would have come to your house!
As an actual Irish person, I know this recipe as "currant cake". The term "soda bread" can refer to this or to the "brown bread" made with wholewheat flour without the fruit. There are as many versions of this as there are home bakers! My personal recipe uses golden raisins. I love to put lemon zest in it, and I use the juice of the lemon to curdle milk, which means I don't have to buy buttermilk. In fact, this is a great way to use up expired (sour) milk. I also add sesame seeds and sprinkle a few on top. It's delicious, and it freezes well. Mmmmm!
I'm trying this recipe today for the St. Pat's dinner I'm going to. It's usurping my variation of Martha's, so please deliver, Chef John!
Also, I learned last year from a YT vid of this great Aussie gal making scones, to grate frozen butter into the flour instead of cutting it in. And I have been and I'll *never* go back! So much easier!
Everyone loved it! Including me! I made one loaf plain and one with fruit. I used dried cranberries, dried chopped apricots, and golden raisins, first soaked in rum.
Yes I did was absolutely delicious!
You have a good voice for this. Also watched when you made pumpkin pie. Good recipes and techniques, thanks for sharing
Since seeing this a couple of years ago I've made it a dozen times, always great. Yes, not basic traditional however upscaled and delicious. Thanks Chef John; So, haters here back off the freak off.
We add Caraway to ours, and a little butter and a sprinkling of sugar across the top. So much more flavorful.
Great recipe for soda bread, Chef John!
I heard *Holy Flour* instead of _Whole Wheat_ Flour around 0:30, since my mind was still set on _Saint_ Patrick's Day, lol.
It's the perfect bread for breakfast.
You're the Darby O'Gill of your dough slashing skill!
69adrummer YAS!
Did you notice Sean Connery in that movie?
@@philipwebb960 Way back when he had hair.
Chef John, your puns were on point in this video.
I tried this 2 ways. One using buttermilk, following recipe exactly, the other using lemon in almond milk, and cranberries instead of the raisins. They were both fabulous, tender, and delicious! Thanks for a fabulous recipe!
As always...Thank You!
about the allergies + local honey thing, it's absolutely true (at least for me). if traditional allergy meds don't make much of a difference for pollen allergies, try local honey! there is no risk involved, and local honey has a much better taste than the stuff you get in the supermarket.
I have decided to not make my Irish Soda Bread to try yours, looks really good and Happy Saint Patrick's day to you all!
OMG, I was doing so well, and then he said that making an X is proven to ward off the devil... That took me right out! I love you Chef John!
why? and what do you mean by "took you right out"? (it's actually to bless the bread)
Khasab took me out means to make someone *laugh hysterically* 😎
@@grumpyboots4937 never heard of it or ever heard it used. why would him saying that make you laugh hysterically?; it seems odd even if you thought it was a little bit funny, surely it would just make you smile briefly? I mean... *laugh hysterically!?!?*
very true about the honey....the closer to home its produced the more of your local allergens it combats.....:)
Great toasted, too!
I love your voice and your jokes!! Definitely a pick me up every week :)
Great video!
I made my first loaf of any kind of bread recently it was Irish brown bread....I used one bottle of Guinness beer and I cup buttermilk 1/2 cup dark brown sugar...it is so moist....oh, I'm in love the bread is FABULOUS! Do you have a similar recipe?...
Mouth watering. Love my Irish recipes that don't primarily feature potato.
Yeah a lot of people don't understand that you only need to dust raisins or nuts if you're putting them into a liquid batter, not a bread dough. The thick consistency of the dough supports the dried fruits, while thinner batters do not.
I'm so glad I watched this before bed lol it reminded me to make my overnight oats xD
Huzzah! New video! Thank you Chef John!
Gorgeous! Looks like a gigantic biscotti cookie. And the marks on top are crosses, not x's, c'mon, John! ♡♡♡
Again: Chef John you're the man, man!
I love this with strawberry preserves in the morning with some nice hot coffe
jam / coffee
Prepare for the angry Irish mob complaining about how this recipe is wrong lol
Don't see any so far. I've never even eaten soda bread.
Well it was more of a fruit loaf. Soda Bread or Farls only use Flour, Buttermilk, Baking Soda and Butter. Though as he stated it was his take on it. It tastes great when straight off a freshly baked. Do miss some things with being on a gluten free diet.
This is spotted dog, I always enjoy your channel but maybe checking your info would be a tad bit better.
Irish aren't Italians, mate.
In Ireland this is called a fruit soda. True soda bread is an everyday bread that has just flour, baking soda, salt and buttermilk. Some add eggs and/or butter, but most don’t.
This isn't particularly related to this video, but, due to being sleep deprived, drunk, or possibly just somewhat enlightened, it just occurred to me that your tagline, "... and, as always, enjoy!" is pretty much the finest philosophy around.
Somewhat more related to this video, I find myself tempted to make "Jewish soda bread" by swapping the whole wheat flour and oats for rye flour, and the dried fruits for caraway seeds. Of course, I'm no baker, so the results might be disastrous!
Best served warm with a bit of butter and a cup of tea
Hey, I just so happen to have Irish butter in the fridge. I have an egg, oats, a little flour, baking soda, honey, baking powder, I can make buttermilk with vinegar, but I'm currently out of currants. Think I'll ixnay the honey and incorporate some cinnamon, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, and raisins instead. Mmm, oatmeal raisin Irish soda bread... Should pair quite well with a Benjamin Franklin bowl which, by the way, is one of my favorite breakfast for the last couple years now. Hope you're doing well, Chef John, and all your fans, friends, and family as well.
My favorite! Great video💝
Whenhe says "ward off the devil I just about fall over laughing.chef John is legend
So this is where my baking bowl has is! ☘️
I just picked up two of Irish soda bread over at the whole foods I happen to pass by that store when I went in there they had it nice and fresh too I think they got it from Ireland imported at least that's what they told me that said that on the rapid I came with the bread I think they would like 495 each or something but I bought two of them came home they were out of this world you could you know heat them up a little bit or put butter on it that's what I like have it with a glass of beer or whatever I put the rest in the freezer I don't want to run low they only have it on March couple weeks before it's saint Patty's day I'll go back and get some more 👍🍀💯🇨🇮🍀
Thank you for the recipe and fun video Chef :)
Chef John can you use buttermilk substitute for this? AKA a tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a 1 cup measure, then fill the measure with regular milk and let it sit a couple of minutes while it curdles.
He most likely says that in his blog either vinegar or lemon juice. How you been my friend?
Paula Allen Ooops. I never read the blog website. LOL. Yeah he says that on his website. I never purchase buttermilk so I know that trick. I'm fine but I slipped a disc about a week ago and these muscle relaxers are making my brain relaxed to. Can't be making any bread or kneading any dough until I get better and been cooking mostly quick things or one pan in the oven meals the past week. Have to go back to doctor on Friday and gonna ask for physio. Yeah I slipped on ice outside and fell. Now we getting thaw and ice and snow melting.
