For anyone who is looking for the recipe:- 250g/9oz plain wholemeal flour 250g/9oz plain white flour 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda 1 tsp salt 420ml/15fl oz buttermilk extra flour for dusting Preheat oven to 200C/400F/GM6 Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl. Add the buttermilk. Alternative a). Half yoghurt half milk mixture Alternative b). 420ml full fat milk stirred in either 1 tsp lemon juice or 1 tsp white vinegar. Pour into the dry ingredients as soon as the milk curdles with the acid. Do not overwork your dough and put it straight in the oven after making a cross cut. No need to rest the dough. Bake for 30 minutes. Tap the base of your loaf for that hollow sound to ensure it has cooked through. Hope this helps. Happy baking!

If you don't have any buttermilk on hand, try using milk to which you have added the juice of one lemon. This will curdle the milk in two or three minutes. This will have the same effect as buttermilk does. Just an idea!

@PB-vg7ww

I second this! If it's too bothersome to use lemon juice, you can also use vinegar. The usual amount is 1 cup milk + 1tbsp lemon juice/vinegar and wait 10 mins. I do this all the time. I think he didn't give good advice when he said you could make it with just milk, he should've said yoghurt as it is naturally acidic. Although some yoghurts can be too thick, in which case, you should go for the low fat, watery kind.

Paul you just make things look so easy and interesting to make! You are definitely right about buttermilk in the moisture that It has and it's much better to It than plain milk. I always used buttermilk in making biscuits because it made them turn out more lighter and fluffier, also moist instead of dry! Paul you make cooking so interesting and also keeps it alive! God bless you 🙏 Paul!

I got Mary Berry’s book for Christmas and her book says you can use yogurt+milk if you don’t have buttermilk. However, I used milk with vinegar per the internet and it worked fine.

Have you ever made scones using only sourdough starter for leavening?

I really like Paul Hollywood. BUT... I'm not sure how many traditional soda bread makers would agree with how heavy handed he was bringing that together... The less you work it the lighter it will be. Gosh he actually kneaded it a bit. That would never be allowed! I've never heard of any traditional cooks resting it either. I'll try that but usually buttermilk and soda combos work best when cooked straight away.

If its cracking, the mixture might be too dry. Add extra milk, but only a capful at a time. Too much moisture will result in a very sticky mixture. Ideally, when the mixture is right it should hold together, but not stick to your hands too much. If it's like glue, it's got too much moisture.

I'm a big fan of Pauls, I don't agree with his overall shape of the bread though, I followed this recipe yesterday and in Ireland, I've never seen anyone shape or cut it that way. Its too thick...you have to flatten it down a bit into a wheel shape, don't worry it'll puff up a bit, but with Paul's way its already a ball shape so it puffs up too much and then after cutting it all the way down, by the time its out of the oven the shape is kind of unapproachable. Just give it a nice flatter disc shape, because it wont cook properly in a half an hour with that shape, it looks more like a crown when its done. He's the master, but I'm just saying, the bread cooks better my way and looks nicer.

Irish soda bread!

absolutely do not make this way, the soda and the salt need to be mixed into the dry flour so that you will not run the possibility of getting a pocket of soda which will be horrible tasting and looking. the recipe is good though but take a minute. One other thing to mention the less handling the better, get it mixed turn out on floured board shape into nice fat bun quickly, dont cut all the way down but rather about half way will give you a better loaf.

I can't believe he didn't even distribute the salt and the bicarbonate properly before adding the buttermilk. That will just end up with sections are too salty and too soapy (due to the bicarbonate). Another rule of making soda bread is that you do minimal knead on it because the carbon dioxide will just escape and you end up with dense bread. I guess it's fine if you have something you made earlier...
