marmalade and soda bread
At my parents house, you can always count on there being jars of my dad’s dark chunky marmalade in the cabinet and a loaf of soda bread on the countertop. I must be homesick, since I spent today making those two things. The marmalade turned out nice…dark and caramelized. The soda bread I had some problems with–I think I must have lost count while measuring flour and not put enough in, because although it had a beautiful crust, the inside was doughy and uncooked. I just kept it in there at a low temp until finally it was done. It’s edible, but not great. (though with a heap of marmalade on it, you can’t tell)
