🇮🇪 Ireland recipe
Brown Bread
Irish brown bread is the everyday bread of Ireland, served at every meal from breakfast to supper. Made with coarse wholemeal flour and buttermilk, it has a nutty, wheaty flavor and a dense, moist crumb that is completely different from white soda bread. A touch of treacle or dark brown sugar adds depth and color. It is the perfect companion to butter, smoked salmon, chowder, or simply a thick wedge of Irish cheddar cheese.
