In this two hour demo, Jimmy teaches classic Irish Brown Soda bread that can be made and ready to eat in just an hour, Fruited Soda bread, Hot Cross Buns—just in time for Easter, Raspberry Buttermilk scones which were a signature at Griffin’s for more than 140 years, Griffin’s Grinder—a sandwich bread baked in a traditional Irish wood form (variations will be discussed) and a light and savory Potato and Dill Shamrock Bread, made with an overnight cold sponge and shaped into a festive clover.
