Comment on Homecookin’: Turkish Meat & Rice Stuffed Peppers by Francine

Ciao Spice! Made the stuffed pepper tonight! We loved it! We live in the boondocks and have no specialty spice stores nearby, so I used cayenne pepper. We served it with plain yogurt and golden raisins–as they say in Italy–molto buono! Thanks for sharing!

Hey Spice! You make a cross not an X in the bread – Irish, St. Patrick, Catholic and all that – it’s a cross! To answer Queen Mother…most recipes call for baking soda – thus Soda Bread. However, this recipe is from Grandma Gibbons [dearly departed] straight from Ireland. Her recipe called for baking powder which adds a bit of Irish and a neutral reaction with moisture.

Baking powder contains both an acid and a base and has an overall neutral effect in terms of taste. Recipes that call for baking powder often call for other neutral-tasting ingredients, such as milk. Google for more in-depth explanations.

Happy St. Pat’s Day to all!

Nice job, Spice. Do you know why it’s called SODA bread? I always thought that it had baking soda in it, but your recipe doesn’t have any of that. I particularly liked your advice about being exact with measurements when baking — which is probably the best advice you could give to novices whether they’re baking Irish Soda Bread for St. Patrick’s Day or Sponge Cake for Passover. Happy SPD for now!

i agree with dougie boy — those bk burgers look disgusting….this burger looks all right, bacon looks good but the onions definitely dont look appetizing. hoboken is cool 1 day of the year, and thats on st pattys…other than that, the only reason to go to hobo is to hang out with Joba chamberlain and get drunk.
