Leading up to the 17th, grocery and specialty stores are stocking their shelves with Irish foods. If you're planning traditional Irish bread for your
St.Patrick's day menu, consider making it yourself.
I find bread recipes hard to tackle at the best of times. Beer bread is even more complicated and admittedly, I've only ever made it from a package. "Just add beer" is about all the instructions I thought I could manage. That is until I found this
recipe for
Lazy Irish beer bread. With a 10 min. prep time and only 45 min. in the oven, you'll be enjoying fresh baked Irish beer bread in less than an hour.
Check out the comments from people who have made this bread. They rave about how good it is, adding in that it's simple and cheap to make.
Don't forget: Better beer makes better bread.

I recommend the beer bread recipie in Joy of Cooking. Not the latest one, the one before that a lot of people hate. Well, I haven't checked hte latest, maybe it's in there, as well. It uses multiple grains (regular flour, whole wheat flour, oats), plus salt, sugar, baking powder, and beer. It works exceptionally well with Dundee's Honey Brown beer, and makes a heavy, 'hearty' bread that is awesome for breakfast.
