Irish soda bread’s humble beginnings welcome the addition of butter and an egg, caraway seeds and currant, transforming into a rich, flavorful loaf, best served slathered with butter. Irish of course. Best of all? This will be ready to eat in under an hour with no proofing.

Floral honey and the sharp, earthy flavor of caraway brighten, while roasting develops and deepens the often insipid sweetness of cooked carrots. Perfect for a Saint Patrick’s Day meal with the caraway echoing the flavor of both the corned beef and soda bread.
