Something Delicious

Bread, start to finish in an hour.

Has to be soda bread. Leavened only with baking soda and cream of tartar it doesn't require proving. That it's delicious is the icing on the proverbial.

I've always made it with a smaller proportion of white to wholemeal strong flour and semi skim milk instead of buttermilk, because I always have milk in the fridge but rarely buttermilk. Been known to throw in a bit of this and/or that - chopped olives were good.

Once upon a time, a very long time ago, I made soda bread most days.

Just don't eat it too quickly after it's come out of the oven unless you want horrid indigestion.
