Bara brith

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

This favourite Welsh teabread – its name means ‘speckled bread’ – is usually made with a yeast dough by bakers and by a quick-mix method at home. Soaking the dried fruit in tea makes it very juicy, and produces a moist loaf with good keeping qualities. Serve it thickly sliced and lightly spread with butter or soft cheese.

Cardiganshire Cawl

Recipe by: Beryl Davies

This traditional recipe is derived from the local farming community of Cardiganshire (Ceredigion). There are regional variations throughout Wales as to what meat is used; some use pork or mutton, but we use shin beef. The quantities used here are based on my own requirements for two to three days, as this soup is one that improves on subsequent re-heating. Serve with lightly buttered bread and a good mature Cheddar cheese.

Cheese and onion rarebit

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

There are many versions of Welsh rarebit (or rabbit). The one here is richly flavoured with mature Cheddar cheese and thickened with breadcrumbs to add texture, and is spooned over thinly sliced red onions before being grilled until golden and bubbling. A spinach, apple and celery salad is the perfect partner.

Mamgu's bara brith

Recipe by: kez87

Mamgu meaning grandma in welsh the recipe if im at all truthful doesnt belong to my my mamgu but a family friends nan bara brith meaning speckled bread. i love this cake spread with butter and a good cup of tea. Tips, if the cake browns quickly in your oven cover the tin with grease proof paper and return to the oven. although this cake is translated as bread it is more of a cake so dont be scared if you find you'ved sliced a cake not a piece of bread.

Ria's Welsh Cawl

Recipe by: riallews

"Cystal yfed o'r cawl â bwyta's cig" - It is as good to drink the broth as to eat the meat -- Cattwg the Wise. Cawl (Pronounced 'cowl') is just like any other old farmhouse soup or stew. We pick up whatever is in season, chuck it in a pot and boil it for a day, then guzzle it up the next day and moan about how much our belly aches afterwards.

Traditional Welsh pancakes. These make a lovely afternoon treat for children coming home from school! I think you get the best results if you use an electric griddle.
