Everyone's still waiting around for "excruciating" info, related to buttermilk substitutes, in the recipe page. With my lactose intolerance, I'd go for diluted thick yogurt or sour cream... Which of these - if any - would you favor, pls ? Thanks for answering a Paris-based dedicated follower of your great "cooking-means-zest-for-life" (highly therapeutic, btw) program! I'd go as far as translating into French subtitles, people here do suffer extra historically (& culturally) - issued severe culinary inhibitions... 👍

I don't think it is traditional soda bread. Looks more like a scone recipe, which could explain why he likes it ;)

Sachin Shukla exactly!! You are NOT alone on that. He nearly hit the note on the falafel one if I remember correctly!! Tricky when his jazzy piano is being overdubbed- maybe he’s a really good singer but can’t hear the piano... I like his vids so much- he can sing sharp or flat as long as he doesn’t stop making vids!

I just made this for my St. Patrick's Day dinner party and it was a hit. I didn't use raisins or currants. I did use the tangerine zest, but I added some chopped pistachio nuts. It almost had a pumpernickel taste. It was really good. And you will be happy to know the pistachio nuts did not fall to the bottom.

Ah just love listening to you explain everything. Even if I'm not actually making anything, you just sound so happy and it cheers me right up. Can't wait to make this some time. Looks good!!

There are few things more enjoyable than a slice of Irish soda bread with real butter.

I've made this repeatedly over the years, and it's a great all-purpose bread -- good for toast, sandwiches, etc. I make it less sweet (only 1Tbsp honey), use craisins instead of raisins/currants (because it's what I have on hand), and I shape it like a loaf instead of a circle. My family loves it. Thanks Chef John!

Chef John, I watched a few of your other bread videos and really enjoyed them, I was not sure though that they would work until I watched this video. I grew up in a bakery and have managed/owned a few, your Soda bread recipe is quite close to the one I used for years. While I only used raisins in mine, every step brought back fond memories. I would make about 5000 (Yes, thousand) loaves every St Patrick's day for the folks in San Francisco. Thanks for this!

I went looking for an Irish soda bread recipe for tomorrow. I should have known you already had a video posted on this. Thanks to you Chef John, I will now be the Bobby Flay of my family's St. Patrick's Day. See what I did there?

I made this last night with out the oats (my daughter is allergic) and I added craisins since I couldn’t find any currants in the stores. It came out friggin fantastic. I cannot wait to make this again!

Love the way you present and the humor is top notch

I look forward to every video you produce, chef John, and this was no exception. Great recipe, perfect puns and excellent rhyming with the CSN line. 10/10.

You deserve so much love !

*My recipe for this year my friend, and I THANK YOU!*

That line - "I don't wanna St. Paddy myself on the back ..." still cracks me up!

Thank you very much Chef John, I enjoy your sense of humor and of course your recipes.

I honestly enjoyed this video. You explained everything perfectly, your voice was nice to listen to and the bread came out lovely!

Made it, came out great. Thank you for the detailed instructions.

I'm lovin the Irish puns 😂 I made this last year for St. Patrick's Day my family loved it! ☘️

Well I'm not going to get all up on my high horse about your potato and drinking comments about us Irish as we all know they were tongue and cheek, plus my profile picture would not support any such argument :D So yea, never seen that recipe before. Way more complicated than my own. I just mix 500g of both Flour and Natural Yoghurt, 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt, mix together with as little work as possible, cross on the top and throw in oven. From start to finish (excluding pre-heating the oven) it can be done in less than 5 mins, inc cleaning up. Oh and yes, the cross is obligatory, its the law

I’ve made soda bread (no fruit) several times before, and it has been really dry every time except ONE. I’m getting ready to make Chef John’s recipe tonight...we’ll see how it turns out for me. My brown bread, on the other hand, is always spectacular. I prefer to make muffins instead of a single loaf, and I sweeten it a LOT - and I include fresh blueberries. It cooks much faster (about 15 minutes), and the doneness is always more consistent than when I put it in a tin. Sadly for me, I’m not from Ireland. We’ve taken vacations in the southern half of the Republic for the last two years (the M6 between Galway and Dublin is about as far north as we’ve been), and we just returned to the US from Ireland last week. Beautiful land, people, food, and culture!

Love the voice over. It's fun and encouraging. Great job!

I made this bread. Yummy. It turned out perfect. Nice and moist on the inside with a nice thin crust on the outside. Best bread I ever made. Thank you for such a delicious recipe.

Thanks Chef John! I've always wanted to make this bread! Can't wait to try it.

Everything you do is amazing!

Amazing sharing ! My daughter made it today and shared the recipe and link with me ! It looks so tempting !

Good evening dear chef John. Gorgoues recipe, thank 💕 ♥️ you

One of my favorites without a doubt

As always...Thank You!

Yes I did was absolutely delicious!

I made this today, except I didn't have any currants, so I used dried cranberries. And it was amazing.

This was a great recipe! Chef you never fail to deliver!

This was the most delicious Irish Bread I ever made and I've been making it for my entire adult life. I'm making it for New Year's 2016.

LOL at "st. Paddy myself on the back" hahaha! Great recipe I need to try, every single thing I try of yours comes out amazingly so THANK YOU! (Now everyone loves my French baguettes and my pie crust- I made rhubarb-peach pie with it!)

I have never before worried about an aftertaste of baking powder or baking soda in my baking, but I will from this point forward. Thanks, Chef John.

I find your videos very enjoying. Thanks for the good recipes and your cooking expertise.

Hi Chef John, I love all your recipes and videos. I have never made Irish Soda Bread before and decided to try your recipe. My hubby said the "perfect" word. Actually, he said it was PERFECT. Not only is your recipe delicious but my whole house smelled heavenly. Thanks for sharing the love. 🍀

I could eat this all day, soda bread is so good

Love your recipes.. they always work out perfectly. Thanks for all the tips and the humour too ! ( I am crazy over your various recipes for chicken wings.. sooo delish !)

Super easy to make and it smells wonderful. I can't wait to cut into it once it cools.

Chef John, your puns were on point in this video.

I've never had Irish Soda Bread, but I was thinking this looks like it would make THE most awesome french toast, with all those raisins, yum!

I've been making an Irish Soda Bread recipe that my mother got from her mother. But, this one looks excellent and I'll be making it this weekend. Thanks

A CSN reference...you are officially my favorite!

It's the perfect bread for breakfast.

Great toasted, too!

Did my eyes and ears deceive me? There was no mention or addition of our favorite ingredient - cayenne! Actually, this is a beautiful simple recipe Chef John - definitely worth the baking!!

First thing tomorrow! Btw, if you wet the knife, it will slide smoothly. A smooth and very very sharp knife will do a great job! Thanks for the recipe!

soooo good!

Great video! Reminds me of my Granny. The local honey thing is not true, but it almost makes sense! Wish it were that easy to deal with allergies...

Well, 8 years later I found your video. I’ve looked at about a dozen other videos, including Americas Test Kitchen, and your methodology and explanations make a lot sense. I found another recipe that includes Irish Whiskey 🥃. Probably a bit before, in and after the recipe 😉

Thank you! I think I might try it for Thanksgiving!

Again: Chef John you're the man, man!

I just made this and the crumb was perfect, moist and delicate! I soaked the currants and raisins in a shot of scotch, some apple cider, and some hot water for a few hours before baking to plump them up. I also substituted 1/4 cup of the white flour for rye flour, along with the whole wheat Chef John already used, and I took a cue from Melissa Clark's recipe and added some caraway seeds.

I'm so glad I watched this before bed lol it reminded me to make my overnight oats xD

You have a good voice for this. Also watched when you made pumpkin pie. Good recipes and techniques, thanks for sharing

I heard *Holy Flour* instead of _Whole Wheat_ Flour around 0:30, since my mind was still set on _Saint_ Patrick's Day, lol.

Mouth watering. Love my Irish recipes that don't primarily feature potato.

Love your puny humor.

If you have no buttermilk .add teaspoon of lemon juice to milk works perfectly. Thank me later .blessings from Ireland 🇮🇪😎🇮🇪

Since seeing this a couple of years ago I've made it a dozen times, always great. Yes, not basic traditional however upscaled and delicious. Thanks Chef John; So, haters here back off the freak off.

In Ireland this is called a fruit soda. True soda bread is an everyday bread that has just flour, baking soda, salt and buttermilk. Some add eggs and/or butter, but most don’t.

Thanks for the tutorial! I'm going to give this a try, and pair it with some cabbage soup for St. Paddy's Day. I wonder if I can substitute steel cut oats for rolled/quick oats?

that clover design table cloth at the end... so Irish :D

I ended a lifetime of terrible cravings for breads and various baked goods by doing my own baking; the hallmark of which is Irish Soda Bread. Why this should be I have no idea but I love it.

I'm trying this recipe today for the St. Pat's dinner I'm going to. It's usurping my variation of Martha's, so please deliver, Chef John! Also, I learned last year from a YT vid of this great Aussie gal making scones, to grate frozen butter into the flour instead of cutting it in. And I have been and I'll *never* go back! So much easier!

Everyone loved it! Including me! I made one loaf plain and one with fruit. I used dried cranberries, dried chopped apricots, and golden raisins, first soaked in rum.

Best served warm with a bit of butter and a cup of tea

This isn't particularly related to this video, but, due to being sleep deprived, drunk, or possibly just somewhat enlightened, it just occurred to me that your tagline, "... and, as always, enjoy!" is pretty much the finest philosophy around. Somewhat more related to this video, I find myself tempted to make "Jewish soda bread" by swapping the whole wheat flour and oats for rye flour, and the dried fruits for caraway seeds. Of course, I'm no baker, so the results might be disastrous!

We add Caraway to ours, and a little butter and a sprinkling of sugar across the top. So much more flavorful.

Chef John, can you make a upgraded fettuccine alfredo recipe? I love your recipes and I would definitely try it. (:

HAHAHA i would go and buy IRish butter as well

I made soda bread today had in with spreadable cheese omg I can cook .well bake 😁🇮🇪
