Soda Bread
Recipe Image:
Introduction:
Soda bread is a traditional Irish bread that can be made in minutes. It uses bicarbonate of soda and cream of tartar in place of yeast so requires no ‘proving' time. It can be flavoured to be sweet or savoury but is just as good plain.
Preparation:
Before you start, pre-heat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6 and lightly grease a baking tray.
Ingredients:
1 packet JUVELA Gluten-Free Fibre Mix,
1tsp salt,
1tsp bicarbonate of soda*,
1tsp cream of tartar*,
2tbsp lemon juice,
Approx. 375ml (¾pt) milk.
* Please check the Food List for suitable gluten-free brands.
Method:
- Place a whole packet of Fibre Mix into a bowl and stir in the salt, bicarbonate of soda and cream of tartar.
- Add the lemon juice to the milk to sour it.
- Gradually add sufficient milk to the Mix to form a soft but not sticky dough.
- Knead until smooth on a surface lightly dusted with Mix.
- Shape into a round and place onto baking tray.
- Cut a shallow cross on the top of the dough with a sharp knife and bake in a pre-heated oven for 45-50 minutes.
