Instructions

1. Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Then add the soy yogurt, vinegar and milk. First mix everything with a wooden spoon, then knead gently with your fingers until the end. The dough feels soft and loose.
2. Dust a baking sheet lightly with flour, place the ball of dough on it and flatten it a little. Use a sharp knife to make a cross cut to about half the height of the loaf. This is important so that the dough is well baked.
3. Bake in the preheated oven at approx. 200 ° C for about 25 minutes. But don`t take your eyes off the bread. It happens that after 15 minutes I have to turn the temperature down to 175 ° C because otherwise the bread would be too dark.
4. In the end, the bread should have a rich golden color and a nice crust. The inside is nice and soft.
5. Typical of the sodabread is the light scent of sea water or seaweed - this comes from the soda. This bread can be baked with minimal effort, spontaneously for dinner or for breakfast on Sunday mornings.
6. The bread is traditionally baked with buttermilk. Instead of soy yoghurt, soy milk and vinegar, non-vegans simply add 300 ml of buttermilk to the dough.
