Soda Bread
Soda bread is a quick bread and very popular in historic and modern outdoor cooking.
This version is based on the basic traditional Irish recipe, there are considered to be variations across other countries like Scotland and Serbia, however these variations lead to a whole new naming of the resultant bread, so probably more like a relative that happens to use soda as the rising agent also.
At a science level, this bread uses the reaction between the soda and lactic acid in the buttermilk to create the bubbles and lightness in the bread.
This is a small family batch cooked in an eight inch Dutch oven, but can be doubled if required.
Ingredients
2 cups plain flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
200ml buttermilk
