INSTRUCTIONS
The traditional bread of Ireland
Sift flour, salt, sugar & baking soda together a few times to mix the
thoroughly. Make a well in the centre & stir in the buttermilk
gradually to make a soft dough. Turn out on a floured board & knead
lightly for a few minutes. Flatten it out to about 1/2" thick. With a
floured knife, cut a cross on it to help it cook evenly throughout.
Bake at once in a hot oven (450F, Gas 8, 230C) for 45 min. To test
whether the cake is done or not, tap the bottom - if cooked it should
sound hollow.
