How to Make Traditional Irish Brown Soda Bread
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
- In a large bowl, thoroughly whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the sour milk (or buttermilk) to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
- Lightly knead the dough 8-10 times on a lightly floured surface. Don't overwork it!
- Shape the dough into a round loaf (about 1.5 inches thick) and score a cross on top with a sharp knife.
- Place the loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
