Recipe: Yummy Irish Soda Bread

Irish Soda Bread.

You can cook Irish Soda Bread using 5 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you achieve that.

Ingredients of Irish Soda Bread

1. You need 300 g of plain flour.
2. Prepare 300 g of wholemeal flour.
3. It's 2 tsp of salt.
4. It's 2 tsp of bicarbonate of soda.
5. You need 600 ml of buttermilk.

Irish Soda Bread step by step

1. Preheat the oven to 220 C..
2. Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl..
3. Add the buttermilk in slowly. Mix initially with a spoon and use your hands when it becomes too tough. Move the formed dough to a floured surface. The books I've read say that you shouldn't handle these doughs too much, so just kneed just enough to bring it together into a nice sphere, and place on some baking paper. I use a pizza stone for all bread-like foods..
4. Flatten the dough and scour deeply with a serrated knife..
5. Bake at 220 for about 15 mins. Then drop the temperature to 200 and cook for 20-25 mins..
6. Let cool before digging in. This is beautiful warm, with lavish coatings of butter, and dipped into soup! :).
