Cheese and Rosemary Soda Bread
I made this bread for the first time last week and it's yummy - absolutely moorish! It's so easy to make. Enjoy it warm with lots of butter.
Ingredients:
250 g plain flour
250 g wholemeal flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper (adjust to taste)
200 g grated strong cheese
4 tbsp chopped rosemary
300 ml buttermilk
2-4 tbsp milk
Method:
- Preheat oven to 200C.
- Combine flour, bicarbonate of soda, and salt together.
- Add the grated cheese, chopped rosemary and pepper and combine until well mixed.
- Add buttermilk and mix together by hand or by machine with a dough hook.
- Add enough milk until the texture is smoothly combined. Do not over knead.
- Tip the dough onto a floured surface and roll into an oval shape.
- Place on a baking sheet and bake for 35-45 minutes until nicely browned. Test by tapping the bottom - if it sounds hollow, it is done.
- Allow to cool before slicing and eating.
never heard of that combo before, but i do love some rosemary, bet it tastes good
I hadn't either, and like you, as I love rosemary, I made it twice. Once for my sister-in-law's party and the 2nd time for our Church coffee morning. They were both great successes and people have asked me for the recipe.
Try it - it's easy to make. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Mmmmmmmm soda bread is yummy, and I too sometimes put rosemary into my bread. I agree, totally delicious and really easy to make! Good recipe @sheilaforde :-)
