| 1. Position oven rack in the center of oven; preheat to 350°; butter a 10 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan or any loaf pan with a 10 cup capacity. | 2. Dust pan all over with fine dry bread crumbs, and tap to shake out the excess over a piece of paper; set aside. | 3. Sift together the flour, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. | 4. In a small bowl stir and toss the raisins and orange peel with about 2 tablespoons sifted dry ingredients; set aside the fruit and remaining sifted dry ingredients. | 5. In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter until it softens slightly. | 6. Mix in the powdered espresso and then the sugar; beat to mix. | 7. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating until incorporated after each addition. | 8. Place the honey in a bowl; add the baking soda through a fine strainer, stir to mix, then add the buttermilk, and stir to mix (the mixture will be slightly foamy). | 9. To the butter mixture, add the sifted dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with the liquid in two additions, scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula and beating on low speed only until incorporated after each addition. | 10. Remove from the mixer and stir in the floured raisins and orange peel. | 11. Turn into prepared pan and smooth the top. | 12. Bake for about 1 hour and 10 minutes, until the top feels semifirm to the touch. | 13. If the top begins to brown too much during baking, cover it loosely with foil (the top will be flat, not rounded). | 14. Let the loaf stand in the pan 15-20 minutes; then invert onto a rack; let the loaf stand until completely cool. | 15. Then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. | 16. Cut into thin slices. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
