How to Make Paul Hollywood’s Soda Bread

Start by preheating your oven to 400° and line a baking sheet with some parchment paper. While the oven is warming up, pour your flours, salt and baking soda into a large bowl and mix it all together. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in half of your buttermilk. With your fingers or a spoon, mix the flour into the buttermilk and continue to add the buttermilk until you have a sticky dough.

Tip the dough out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a ball using the palm of your hand. Place the dough on the baking sheet and slice an X (or a cross, as they often say in Ireland) into the top of the loaf. You want to slice down a few inches, but not to the base of the dough. The purpose of the X is to help the dough expand as it bakes, or if you want to lean into Irish lore, it "lets the fairies out," which was a way to ward off evil spirits.

What I Thought About Paul Hollywood’s Soda Bread

The presentation might have gotten me kicked out of the GBBO tent, but the taste, the taste is there. If you can look beyond its appearance, it has a nice mild taste similar to that of a biscuit. And after adding a layer of butter (Irish butter would be most appropriate) to a slice, it’s very delicious. Lucky for me, this recipe takes less than an hour to make, because I just might have to give this recipe another go. Practice makes perfect, right?
