The Delight of Little Christmas: A Cozy Celebration

Written By Mahya Roudneshin - January 05 2024

Little Christmas, Women's Christmas or Nollaig na mBan in Irish tradition falls on January 6th, marking the end of the Twelve Days of Christmas. While the world is still recovering from the jubilant festivities of December 25th, Little Christmas extends the merriment, providing a more intimate and cozy atmosphere.

One of the charming aspects of Little Christmas is its emphasis on women. In Irish folklore, it is a day for the ladies to take a break from their holiday responsibilities and let their hair down. It's a day for women to gather, relax, and celebrate the joys of the season together.

The celebration often involves women coming together for tea, exchanging small gifts, and sharing laughter and stories. It's a time for reflection, gratitude, and the nurturing of meaningful connections. With the hustle and bustle of the preceding weeks, Little Christmas offers a serene interlude to appreciate the quieter moments of the season.

Culinary delights also play a significant role in the Little Christmas celebration. Traditional Irish fare, such as homemade scones, tea cakes, and a warm pot of tea, adds a nostalgic touch to the festivities. The focus is on comfort and familiarity, inviting a sense of coziness and warmth into the gathering.

Embrace the enchantment of Little Christmas with a delightful tea celebration featuring Mrs. Doyle's Irish Cream Tea, Royal Blue Earl Grey Tea, and Bollywood Chai Tea. These unique blends will add a touch of warmth and flavor to your gathering, creating a cozy atmosphere for cherished moments.

Go on use your hands and mix it up, and then using a very good knife, score the dough, so that heat gets into the center so that the bread will bake well. Also please note that Irish soda bread can be made without an egg, it's really up to you. However an egg will add a little richness to the soda bread. Feel free to skip it to make a slightly lighter loaf. No other changes necessary, and if eggs are not for you ,simply leave out the egg. Finally bake until it's golden brown as easy as it gets .

Ingredients

- 1 teaspoon of baking soda and 1 teaspoon salt
- 5 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
- 4 and quarter cups all-purpose flour

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Use a ordinary baking sheet and line it with parchment paper , grease a 9-10 inch cake pan or maybe a pie dish. Now grease or line with parchment paper. You will need to whisk the buttermilk and egg together, and then set it to one side. Next whisk the flour, the sugar, the baking soda, and salt all together in a big bowl. Next cut in the butter with your fingers, also remember to do your best to cut the butter until the butter is tiny balls sized crumbs. Stir in the raisins if you decide to use them. Now pour in the buttermilk .
Now its time to fold the dough together until dough is really stiff .Pour the crumbly dough onto a little floured surface. Finally with your hands, work the dough into a ball, then knead it until all the flour is moistened. What next ? simply transfer the dough to the prepared pan and using a very sharp knife score the dough with a X about 1/2 inch deep.
Now it's time to bake until the bread is golden brown and center appears cooked through, this will take about 45-55 minutes. Place foil over the bread if you see a heavy browning on top. Now remove the bread from the oven and let the bread cool for 10 minutes, and then transfer to a plate.
It is best to serve warm, or at least at room temperature, or toasted with desired toppings/spreads. You can store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 2 days or actually put it in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Ok now its time to enjoy so Go on sit back with a nice cup of Mrs Doyle's Irish tea and jam and enjoy the best soda bread ever!
