Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
500 g plain white flour -- plus extra for dusting
1 tsp fine salt
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
100 g walnut pieces
200 g stilton cheese -- crumbled
400 ml buttermilk -- About
Adding extra flavours to bread dough is popular these days but it was
rare when I started out. Blue cheese works well in all types of bread
and becomes even more special when combined with walnuts in this
savoury soda bread.
Makes: 1 loaf
Bake: 30 to 35 minutes
Heat the oven to 200C/Gas 6 and line a baking tray with baking parchment.
Put the flour, salt and bicarbonate of soda into a large bowl and mix
well. Add the walnuts and stilton and stir gently. Make a well in the
centre of the mixture and pour in half the buttermilk. Using the
fingers of one hand (or a rounded-blade knife and then your fingers),
draw the flour into the buttermilk. Continue to add the buttermilk
until all the flour has been incorporated and you have a sticky
dough. You may not need all the buttermilk (different brands of flour
absorb slightly more or less liquid).
Tip the dough onto a floured surface, shape into a ball and then
flatten slightly. Place on the prepared baking tray. Use a large
sharp knife to mark the loaf into quarters, cutting deeply into the
dough but not quite through the base. Dust the top of the loaf with flour.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the loaf is golden brown and sounds
hollow when tapped on the base. You can carefully cut along one of
the seams to see if the inside is cooked through; if not, put the
loaf back in the oven for 5 minutes or so.
Transfer the soda bread to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
It is best eaten on the day it is made, or at least finished within a
day or two. It also freezes well.
