Soda Bread

Despite the absence of yeast, this bread is very light and rises beautifully during baking. This is ensured by baking soda, which, in combination with acidic ingredients (buttermilk, yogurt, lemon juice, or vinegar), causes the formation of carbon dioxide gas, which swells and leavens the dough.

Ingredients

  • 250 g Flour, buckwheat

  • 250 g Flour, Whole wheat

  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon Salt, table

  • 400 ml Milk, sour

  • 2 spoons Seeds, sunflower, peeled, dried

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. In a large bowl, sift both flours, baking soda, and salt. Mix the sifted ingredients well and make a well in the center, into which you pour the buttermilk. Stir well with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients come together and form a rough dough, which you then turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 1 minute.

  2. Place the dough on a baking sheet, shape it into a loaf, and make a cross on top with a knife. Then brush the dough with a little buttermilk and sprinkle with seeds and polenta. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until it turns a nice golden brown. Let the baked bread cool before serving.
