| 1. In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients. | 2. Cut the butter or Crisco into chunks and mix into the dry with a pastry cutter until well mixed. | 3. Then add the raisins and caraway seeds. | 4. In a smaller bowl mix the egg with the buttermilk until blended. | 5. Pour the wet into the dry and mix together when it starts to form a ball then go in to the bowl with your hands and mix the rest together until all mixed (dough is sticky) then form a bla and place it on a greased cookie sheet. Let sit for 10 minutes (it rises) then cut an X across the top and brush with milk. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden brown. I find the more loaves I bake you need to lessen the bake time , my first 2 took the 35 minutes the last 2 only 25 | 6. I recommend letting it cool slightly, then while still warm enjoy a slice with a lot of butter and huge cup of tea. Some clotted cream and jam would be nice too. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
