chef and author Christy
Rost's recipe for Irish Soda Bread, featured
now on Christy Rost Cooks: Celebrating Life & Home,
has plenty of buttery goodness, sweet, chewy raisins,
and a generous sprinkling of sparkling sugar atop its
crusty exterior. In her how-to culinary video on this
classic quick bread, Christy shares the history of this
Irish country staple, and the tradition of blessing the
house and all within by cutting a cross into the top of
the loaf prior to baking.
