Hot cross buns are tradionally eaten in England on Good Friday to remember the cruxifition of the Lord Jesus thus the cross on the buns. Street vendors cry out,
"Hot cross buns, hot cross buns,
One a penny, two a penny,
Hot cross buns."
This is now , of course a popular nursery rhyme and song. This first baking attempt(20-4-09) of the buns were not of any resemblance to the picture in the original recipe (Salvation Army War Cry Magazine April 2009 issue) however this will not deter me to try harder (and wiser by comparing with other recipes...must be the flour...)
Recipes to be written soon.
