Hello, Jane: I know you--and this list--will be deluged with recipes; but here's mine. Cheers, Jude Irish Soda Bread 4 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 Tablespoon caraway seeds (I add more) 3/4 cup raisins 2 cups whole buttermilk Pre-heat oven to 375. Mix all dry ingredients. Add raisins and get them well coated with the flour mixture. Add buttermilk. Mix well. Turn out on a lightly floured board and knead gently for a minute or two. Bake in a buttered loaf pan at 375 for 50 minutes If you cannot get whole buttermilk, use the low fat but cut in a dollop of butter before adding the seeds. I know that on occasion she used evaporated milk instead of buttermilk and I am pretty sure that if you do that you have to use Baking POWDER. The raisins are optional; people couldn't always find them "in the old days."
