PAUL'S YEASTLESS SODA BREAD


I went to a conference in Ireland a couple of weeks ago. The most wonderful
soda bread was delivered every day to the conference centre. People broke
off little bits and ate it like peanuts. My bread machine (Proctor-Silex
model 80139) will make "quick bread", so I checked a bunch of soda bread
recipes and tried the following.

3/4 cup sour milk (use buttermilk or put one teaspoon of lemon juice into
the milk and give it one minute in the microwave). Actually, I thought the
dough was too try while mixing and I added a couple of tablespoons of water.
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

Set the machine for quick bread and let it go. The result was dense but very
nutty in flavour. I might try it next time with half whole wheat and half
white flour. I certainly intend to make it again.
