Amy’s Soda Bread

450g plain white flour 1tsp baking soda 1 tsp cream of tartar 350ml butter milk 1tsp salt

Sieve the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in the butter milk. Mix it altogether by hand then knead a couple of times on a piece of Bake-O-Glide.

Shape into a ball and cut a cross on the top.

Put the Bake-O-Glide with the soda bread on it onto the Roasting Oven Floor and bake for 15 minutes. Slide in the Cold Plain Shelf and bake for a further 25 minutes or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped underneath. Cool on a cooling rack. Serve warm with butter. Great to serve with cheese and soups!

Conventional cooking time: pre heat oven to 200c and cook the soda bread on a heated baking tray for 30-35 minutes or until it sounds hollow when tapped as above.
