IRISH SODA BREAD
(Makes 1 large or 2 small loaves)
INGREDIENTS
- 574g/ 4 cups (1.25 lbs. plain flour sieved)
- 1/2 teaspoon bread soda
- 15 fl oz (1/2 to 3/4 pt buttermilk) or sour milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- Small drop of fresh milk
- 1 rounded teaspoon Bextartar (raising agent)
- 25g/loz. sugar
METHOD
1) Heat the pot/oven and grease with a little lard.
2) Mix all the dry ingredients in a basin and make a well in the centre.
3) Pour in nearly all the milk and egg; gather in the flour and mix to a loose dough, adding more milk if necessary.
4) With floured hands, knead lightly on a floured board or table and flatten out. Cut a cross on top.
5) Place dough in pot/oven; cover with heated lid. Place hot coals on top to give all round heat.
Alternatively bake in a greased round pyrex dish with lid, pre-heat oven (4250F, 2200C or gas 7 for 40 minutes).
To keep the bread soft, wrap in a clean damp tea towel when it is taken out of the oven.
