Thanks to trade and modern technology, we can find most vegetables year round. But, these green vegetables are those that either first arrive or ripen during Spring. These include vegetables like asparagus, peas, cabbage, and greens like kale, mustard greens, and arugula. Using a knife, cut the shape of a cross into the dough. Next, cut three diagonal slices between each of the edges of the cross, being careful not to cut right into the centre. Take two of the quarters and twist them around each other three times before pressing the ends together to seal. Once the dough has doubled, tip out onto a lightly floured work surface. Flatten the dough slightly and scatter over the cheddar, parmesan, medium soft cheese, and mustard powder, pressing into the dough. Pull up the edges of the dough to enclose the cheese mix, then knead for 2 minutes to evenly distribute the cheese and mustard throughout the dough. The precursor of the hot cross bun was the Alban Bun, developed by a 14th century monk, Brother Thomas Rocliffe, at St. Albans Abbey in Hertfordshire, an hour and a half directly south of where I lived outside of Peterborough. In 1361 he created a sweet yeasted bun with a cross cut into the dough on the top and distributed the buns to the poor on Good Friday. Though no longer available for free, these buns are still made and sold every Easter at the cathedral in the Abbot’s Kitchen where you can enjoy them freshly baked to go or you can sit down with a cup of tea. The recipe remains a carefully guarded secret but includes flour, eggs, yeast, dried currants, and cardamom (earlier versions likely included a spice from the ginger family known as grains of paradise). The recipients of the Alban Buns enjoyed them so much that word began to spread and soon other areas of the country worked to imitate the buns. Rising time will vary depending on the temperature.
