Directions
Ellie Mae’s Not-So-Irish Soda Bread, The original recipe was on a Blue Bonnet Margarine box I’ve modified it to suit my preferences, the main change being the addition of cardamom Be sure your cardamom is fresh — if you can’t remember how long ago you got it, you won’t get the wonderful fragrance and flavor that sets this bread apart I took a loaf with a stick of butter to a St Paddy’s Party and people scarfed it down!
