  • Traditional Irish Soda Bread
    450g / 3 ¾ cups of Plain Flour
    350ml / 1 ½ cups of Buttermilk approx.
    ¾ tsp Baking Soda/Bicarbonate of Soda
    ¾ tsp of Salt
    You can go with 1 tsp of salt if you want. This was fine for me though
    This was baked at 220C/428F Conventional oven for 15 minutes then lowered to 180C/356F for a further 30 minutes.
    Fan oven 200C/392F then lowered to 160C/320F
    Alternatively you can just bake it at 200C/392F Conventional oven or 180C/356F Fan oven for about 45 minutes straight as I didn’t see a major difference
    Substitute: If you have no buttermilk add 2 tablespoons of vinegar to 350ml of milk. Let it stand for about 5 minutes before adding it to the dry ingredients. You can also use natural or Greek yoghurt. If Its too thick add a drop of water
    Some flours hydrate differently so you may need to add a drop more buttermilk. Aim for the consistency in the video
    All the best,
    Chris ☘️

    If you add fat in any form to the basic dough, it becomes enriched meaning that it’ll have a more cake like consistency. I often make a soda bread dough that is more of a batter than a dough. It’s all about personal preference...

It was dry to the point where I couldn’t really shape a uniform ball, the dough had cracks that I couldn’t mould out of it once I was forming the loaf on a baking sheet.
