Ingredients
1lb Plain White Flour
1 Level tsp Salt
1 Level tsp Cream of tartar
1 Level tsp Bicarbonate of soda
1 Level tblsp Sugar
3 oz Sultanas
1/2 pint of soured milk or fresh milk with1 tblsp of yoghurt
Method
Sift flour, salt, bicarbonate of soda and cream of tartar into a bowl. Stir in the sugar and sultanas. Add the milk gradually, forming a dough.
Knead lightly onto a floured board and flatten into a round. Cut a deep cross on top and brush with milk to brown.
Bake in the middle of the oven on a greased and floured baking tray for 25/30 minutes on 190/200 degrees Centigrade, depending on type of oven. You may have to turn the loaf upside down and cook for a further 5 minutes.
This loaf can be wrapped in a damp cloth (tea-towel) and turned on it's side to cool.
I can't believe what hubby has just said - he's treading a fine line here- hasn't yet tasted a slice because he reckons he'd rather have it without the sultanas! I'm speechless, I can tell you.....
Remind me folks the name of the recipe - Sultana Soda Bread! I rest my case. That's his lot for the weekend.
