Irish Soda Bread
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup superfine sugar
2 cups buttermilk
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan or a
9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
Sift flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt together into a large
bowl.
Stir in sugar.
Make a well in center, add buttermilk, and with a fork, work milk into
flour until a soft dough is formed.
Turn into prepared pan and bake for 10 minutes.
Reduce heat to 400 degrees F and bake until bread is golden brown and firm
to touch, about 45 minutes.
Let cool slightly before slicing. Makes 1 loaf.
