Rye Soda Bread

Rye Soda Bread

Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
leavening agents, baking soda
molasses
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d

Directions:
First, pre-heat the oven to gas mark 5 (180C).
Now, mix the first three ingredients, the dry stuff.
Then, mix the next two ingredients into the flour mix, and stir quickly with a wooden spoon.
Try not to over work the mixture - just combine it.
Add more milk if it's not working.
Pop this into a lined 2lb loaf tin.
Then, just before putting into the oven, throw some ice-cubes onto the bottom shelf of the oven to create a little steam.
This helps make the loaf rise before the crust sets.
Bake in the centre of the oven for around 45 - 50 minutes.
The loaf should sound hollow when it's tapped underneath.
Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then finish cooling on a rack.
