Irish Soda Bread with Sea Salt Orange Zest Butter

With the parade canceled and the concerns of this virus, we used this day to clean up the garden and prepare our St. Patrick’s Day meal. Matt is in charge of the corned beef and I am taking care of the potatoes and the traditional quick bread - Irish Soda Bread. So last year, I made a different Irish Soda Bread recipe without currants and believe me when I tell you that there are plenty of traditionalists out there that let me know that I DID NOT MAKE Irish Soda Bread. So fret not, I prepared it this year’s with Ina Garten’s Irish Soda Bread with currants and I do have to agree with you I am in love with how it turned out and I have become a traditionalist. ;) Say yes to the currants! Thank you Jillian for my now go-to Irish Soda Bread and thank you of course to Ina!

Roasted Grapes + Thyme + Ricotta Toast - Cheers to 2020!

Hello and Happy 2020 to you!! The last decade was full of deployments, military moves, Matt’s retirement from the U.S. Navy, and the creation of our small business. Holy cannoli! I am excited to see where this next decade takes our family and of course, Newport Sea Salt Co. 

For the past 2 years, we have seen our little idea blossom into an actual small business that makes us both really proud and excited to see where we can take it. Have we had some major lessons? Each and Everyday. :) Small business is still a new frontier for us and we are taking in all the lessons learned over the past few years so we can get Newport Sea Salt stronger (and its owners) in the next decade. 

So thank YOU to each and every one of you for your support, for your kids stopping at our market table to enjoy a sample and learn about where sea salt comes from, to our customers leaving messages of encouragement on our social media channels, to all of the vendors that do business with us. We are so lucky to have the awesome Lil’Rhody and beyond support!

We wish all of you a fabulously happy and healthy 2020! 

So on to the recipe…
