 | 03:26 pm - Soda bread
Well, here's the finished loaf of soda bread! It actually looks OK, and tastes fine too, though the crust is somewhat ... challenging. I've had three small slices off one side for 'lunch', with plenty of butterish. When it's completely cold I'll put it in a bag in the fridge, so it should keep till early next week (with luck).
Now I know what I'm doing with it, I can easily make more. Next time, I'll use all the tub of buttermilk, and stir it before pouring it in - it was rather gloppy and I don't think it mixed properly. I also want to start trying my hand at real yeast bread; I'll have to think of a good place to leave a no-knead bread to rise, though - the only place I can think of is in the microwave! (Not turned on, obviously.)

| 11:45 pm - Biscuits!
It was my birthday today (and still is for the next 15 minutes *g*), and I made biscuits to take in to work for the occasion.
( Recipes here, by popular demand. Sorry, quantities all in imperial.Collapse )
Burp.
