Odlums Brown Bread Mix 1 kg. Odlums Flour mills, Dublin, only use 100% Irish Wheat. With their unique flavour and texture, soda breads have been part of Irish life since the Iron Age. As their name suggests, these breads use bicarbonate of soda to make them rise. This means that no yeast is required, so there is no need to prove the dough. Irish Soda Bread is shaped into a round and rises more in the centre during baking. A cross is cut into the bread, which helps it bake evenly as well as allowing it to be broken into the traditional four quarters. Prepared in just two minutes, just add water and bake for 45 mins. Delicious fresh or toasted. Serve with preserve, cooked meats, pate or smoked salmon.
