BARMBRACK (IRISH SWEET BREAD)
This traditional Irish sweet bread is known as barmbrack, or bairin breac in Gaelic, or speckled loaf, since it is run through with raisins. This is a perfect bread for breakfast or tea, spread with good butter, toasted or not. The recipe has been adapted slightly from one by the well-known Irish cookbook author Rachel Allen; her original calls for chopped candied peel instead of citrus zest, and fast-rising yeast instead of dry active yeast.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk the yeast and milk together. Leave it to bubble slowly in a warm spot 10 minutes, then whisk in the beaten egg.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, put the flour, cinnamon, clove, mace, salt, butter and sugar. Mix well, incorporating butter with fingertips (or paddle, if using mixer) until absorbed.
- Pour the yeast-milk-egg mixture into the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon (or dough hook, with mixer).
- When the dough begins to come together, add the raisins, currants, lemon zest and orange zest, then mix to combine. It will be somewhat sticky dough. Dust lightly with flour, turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a few minutes until the dough feels smooth. Pat dough into a rectangle.
- Butter a loaf pan and lay in the dough, pushing down so dough covers bottom of pan. Stretch plastic wrap loosely over pan and put in a warm place, covered with a kitchen towel, for about an hour, until doubled in size. Uncover.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees and center a rack in the oven. Bake loaf on the centered rack for 45 minutes, until well browned. Carefully tip the loaf out of the pan onto a cooling rack. To tell whether it's done, thump the bottom of the loaf with your fingertips; it should sound hollow. Let cool to room temperature before slicing, if possible.

- This step allows the raisins to soak up all the tea making them plump and juicy. This is an essential step for this recipe. Steep the tea for 5 minutes (or according to package directions). While the tea is steeping, add both kinds of raisins to a medium mixing bowl, along with the zest of the lemon and orange. Once the tea has steeped, remove the tea bags and add the still hot tea to the bowl. Toss everything together. Once the tea has cooled stir in the whiskey (if using). Cover the bowl and allow it to sit at room temperature for at least 8 hours (or overnight).
- When you are ready to bake the bread, brew some more strong breakfast tea. Allow it to cool completely (I sometimes pop mine in the freezer to help seep things along). Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9 inch bread pan, and line the bottom of it with parchment paper. Note: if things tend to stick easily in your bread pan then I suggest using extra parchment paper to allow for overhang, to create “handles” to easily lift out the bread once it’s baked.
- In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. Create a well in the dry ingredients.
- Add the brown sugar, whisked egg, and vanilla. Add half of the soaked fruit, along with any of it’s liquid to the dry ingredients. Give it a mix and then add the remaining fruit and liquid. Now stir in the tablespoon of whiskey (if using) along with 1/4 cup of the fresh strongly brewed tea that is now cooled. NOTE: The batter should be thick, and very wet. It should be pourable, but not runny. Depending on how much of the tea the raisins initially soak up depends on how much of the freshly brewed tea you will need to add. Start with 1/4 cup and gradually add 1 tablespoon of tea until the consistency is just right. Keep in mind that if the batter is too runny the loaf will take up to 90 minutes to bake, and it still may have a slightly under baked center.

- Place the fruit mix in a bowl and pour over the whiskey and cold tea. Allow to soak up the liquid overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 170C/340°/Gas Mark 3, and grease and line a 900g loaf tin. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and mixed spice in a mixing bowl. Make a well and break in the egg, and using a wooden spoon mix the egg with the dry ingredients. Add a little bit of the liquid the fruit mix is sitting in and mix it through. You may not need all the liquid – you are looking for a wet dough. Then stir through the fruit mix until everything is thoroughly combined.
- Add in the ring – and any of the other traditional symbols of a pea, a piece of cloth, a matchstick and a coin – and stir through. Spoon the wet dough into the lined loaf tin and place in the oven on the middle shelf and bake for one hour. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before removing from the loaf tin and placing on wire rack.
- Cover in cling wrap and tin foil and allow to sit for one to two days before cutting into it. Serve in slices spread with a little butter and nice cuppa!
