The Ulster Scots, or Scots-Irish, came to Ulster, Northern Ireland from the Scottish
Lowlands, which was that part of Scotland between the Scottish Highlands and England.
Below is a traditional lowlands dish.
Burrebrede
Origin: Scottish Period: Traditional
This is the 'Lalans' (lowland Scots) version of the classic Scottish shortbread (literally
the name means 'butter bread').
Ingredients:
100g caster sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cardamom
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1/2 tsp salt
375g unbleached plain flour
225g butter, softened
Method:
Combine the sugar, spices and salt in a bowl then divide the mixture into two equal parts
and set one aside. Tip the other half in a large bowl, combine with the flour then mix-in
the butter with your fingers until the mixture becomes grainy.
Turn the dough into the base of a 20cm square pan and press evenly to cover the entire surface.
Using a knife, but into rectangles of about 3cm by 5cm. Prick the surface with the tines of a
fork (to produce he classic pattern and to prevent the shortbread from curling whilst cooking).
Sprinkle the reserved sugar mixture over the top. Brush the sugar topping into all the holes and
cracks, then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 180°C and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the
shortbreads are firm and only slightly coloured at the edges.
Allow to cool completely in the pan then break into pieces along the cuts you made and serve.
