Rye Mix Soda Bread

[minesamojito]

Soda bread is the easiest bread you can think of, you pull all the ingredients together and bake, I like to use a little rye flour in mine for a good depth of flavour.
Use a mixture of 400g plain white flour with 100g rye flour, in a large bowl, mix 2 tsp bicarbonate of soda and a tsp of fine sea salt, then add 400ml plain live yoghurt and 50ml whole milk, bring together with your hands in the bowl and knead lightly to bring together into a loose ball, dust lightly with some rye flour.
Slash the top in a cross most of the way through and bake in a preheated oven at 200 degC for 45 minutes, cool on a wire rack and enjoy warm with lashings of butter.

That's making me hungry

I've developed a baker's allergy to Rye flour. Just a tiny bit in the air and I'm in hayfever hell for 2-3 days. Sob!

Thanks mate, sorry to hear abut your issues with rye, I love the stuff, and always add a little to whatever bread i'm making these days, it gives it real character.
Cheers
