Join me in my kitchen on the shores of Strangford Lough in County Down, just 30 minutes from Belfast. A warm welcome awaits you with some homemade buttermilk soda bannock fresh from the oven, hot spiced apple juice or my homemade mulled wine. Then we get the aprons on…
You’ll be learning how to make and bake a variety of traditional griddle breads. As our soda breads, wheaten and potato breads are made on the griddle, they are all ready to eat within 15 minutes of making them. There is no need to weigh or measure anything – we make these breads by hand in the traditional way.
By then, you’ll have worked up an appetite. You can enjoy some of my homemade Christmas treats around the kitchen table, with some breads, jams, tea and coffee. Don’t worry, what you don’t eat, you can take home with you. Most people leave with plenty of homemade breads that are perfect to have as part of an Ulster Fry or with a cup of tea.
You'll arrive to a cosy fire and homemade festive treats served with hot spiced Apple Juice (made using our homegrown 🍏) or my homemade Mulled Wine.
Then it's time to roll up your sleeves and make a Christmas Bannock - savoury or sweet, which you’ll take home and you’ll make a delicious oven Guinness Wheaten to take home also.
After breadmaking is complete, relax in our cosy thatched cottage or al fresco in the gardens.
I'll demonstrate a couple of Christmas sweet treats for you to devour.
You'll sit down around the kitchen table to feast on everything I have made along with homemade Christmas breads, jams, tea and coffee.
