Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
To prepare Irish bread on soda in the oven, prepare the necessary products for this. Kefir should be taken 1% and it is advisable to take it out of the refrigerator in advance so that it heats up. I took the usual wheat flour, adding 2 tablespoons of bran to it, the flour with bran turned out.
Step 2:
Dry sunflower seeds, lightly browned in a dry frying pan without oil. Stir the seeds often so they don't burn.
Step 3:
Sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen, and return the bran remaining in the strainer back to the flour. Add toasted sunflower seeds, baking soda and fine salt. As a rule, I add granulated sugar to almost any dish to balance the taste and Irish bread on soda in the oven is no exception. Mix everything together.
Step 4:
Knead the soft, sticky dough, gradually adding kefir at room temperature.
Step 5:
Turn on the oven at 200 degrees. Dust the dough, table and hands with flour, lay out a homogeneous dough and form a round-shaped bread. From above, make a cross-shaped incision with a sharp knife.
Step 6:
Put the formed dough in the oven immediately after kneading and bake for 35-40 minutes. The bread should rise noticeably and be browned. Remove the finished Irish bread from the oven, cover with a clean towel and let cool.
There are various variations of Irish bread with the addition of oatmeal, someone puts crushed garlic inside, experiment to your taste.
So that there is no noticeable taste of soda, especially in freshly baked bread, which some people clearly feel, extinguish the soda with boiling water before adding it to the dough.
