Cooking with Kids: Soda Bread

Anyone who grew up in Northern Ireland knows soda bread and those growing up here at the moment are no exception. The bread is made to be cooked and eaten straight away - the little wait time is great for child friendly cooking. Being able to make and eat something recognisable is quite an accomplishment for most, but especially so if your 3. Mix, roll, flatten, griddle.

What you need? (for 4 farls)

240g of soda bread flour (plain flour, cream of tartar, bicarbonate of soda)
1/4 pint of buttermilk (or 50/50 yogurt and full fat milk)
1 tsp salt

What to do?

Mix flour and salt. Make a well in the flour. Gradually add the milk. Mix until you have a soft dough ball. Roll out and flatten to about 1 inch think, divide into 4 farls (quarters). Griddle on high heat until cooked.
