Breakfast And Brunch - Real Traditional Irish Soda Bread

The most basic version of Irish soda bread has only 4 ingredients, and was cooked on an open fire or a stovetop, not baked. Make your soda bread like they did in 1840, with flour, baking soda, salt, and buttermilk.

Breakfast And Brunch - Pumpkin Pancakes

These barely-sweetened fluffy pancakes feature ginger, cinnamon and allspice to emphasize the pumpkin flavor. Serve them hot with maple syrup for the best autumn or winter breakfast dish ever.

Seafood - Smoked Salmon Watercress Salad With Red Onion Caper Vinaigrette

Start with a salad of smoked salmon and watercress. Try to buy the commercial bagged watercress that already has been cleaned to speed things along, or you may substitute other mixed salad greens. (I like to make sure there are some bitter ones, such as radicchio and arugula, along with milder greens, such as butter lettuce or baby spinach.) Also, because this is such a simple salad, all the ingredients should be top-quality. So spring for the best smoked salmon you can find.
