--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       lb           Flour
   1       t            Salt
   1       t            Sugar
   1       t            Baking soda
   1 1/2   c            Buttermilk

  The traditional bread of Ireland
  
  Sift flour, salt, sugar & baking soda together a few
  times to mix the thoroughly. Make a well in the centre
  & stir in the buttermilk gradually to make a soft
  dough. Turn out on a floured board & knead lightly for
  a few minutes. Flatten it out to about 1/2" thick.
  With a floured knife, cut a cross on it to help it
  cook evenly throughout.
  
  Bake at once in a hot oven (450F, Gas 8, 230C) for 45
  min. To test whether the cake is done or not, tap the
  bottom - if cooked it should sound hollow.
