Herb damper is a traditional Australian soda bread, typically enjoyed by itself or as a side dish. This easy-to-make bread is infused with fresh parsley and chives, giving it a delightful herbaceous flavor. It's perfect for picnics, barbecues, or as an accompaniment to your favorite soup or stew.
- Ensure your butter is cold to make it easier to blend into the flour mixture.
- For a richer flavor, you can substitute 1 cup of full-cream milk instead of 1% fat milk.
- Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Don't overwork the dough; mix until just combined to keep the bread light and fluffy.
- Score the top of the dough in a cross pattern before baking to ensure even cooking.
- Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
There you have it – a simple yet flavorful herb damper that’s sure to impress. By using fresh herbs and high-quality ingredients, you create a delicious soda bread that’s perfect any time of the year. Enjoy your homemade damper with butter, cheese, or even olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping.
