Austria:

With long history of wine production going back to the 5th century BC, Austria produces great white wines. Austria's most planted grape is Gruner Veltliner, accounting for more than 1/3rd of the country's total area under vine. Welschriesling produces very good sweet white wines and is the second most important variety in Austria. Most of the vineyards are in the eastern half of the country, far from the ski slopes in the west.

Quick Irish Soda Bread

Rated

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1-1/2 tsp double-acting baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
¼ cup shortening
1/2 to 1 cup raisins or currants
2 tsp caraway seeds
1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup buttermilk

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375°.

Sift together in a large bowl: 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour,double-acting baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar.

Cut into the flour with a pastry blender, until the mixture has the consistency of coarse cornmeal: 1/4 cup chilled shortening.

Stir in 1 cup raisins or currants, caraway seeds and mix together with beaten egg. Add buttermilk.

Add to dry ingredients and stir well. Knead briefly and place in a greased 8-inch round pan. Press down so dough will fill the pan. Cut a bold cross over the top and sides so the bread will not crack in baking. Brush the top with milk.

Bake 35 to 40 minutes. Serve hot with butter if desired.
