Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400° F. Grease cast iron skillet or Dutch oven with butter or line a baking sheet or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, and baking soda well, then mix in the raisins and caraway seeds.
- Once ready to bake and oven is pre-heated, make a well with the flour mixture in the bowl and then add buttermilk. With a large spoon, gently mix into a shaggy dough.
- Knead dough in the bowl a couple of times to gently form into a shaggy ball in the bowl. All of the flour may not be incorporated, and that's ok.
- Add balled dough to greased cast iron, Dutch oven, or baking sheet. Score a 1/3 inch deep X into the center of the dough. Spray top of loaf with a couple of squirts of water.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown or it reaches an internal temperature of 200° F.
- Let cool for at least 30 minutes until slicing.

Notes
- Serving size is for 1 slice of 12 slice loaf.
- Always spoon and level your flour when measuring for baking. Using weights is the most accurate way to measure.
- Don't add the buttermilk until you're ready to bake. Once the buttermilk and baking soda mixes, it will start to activate and you want this to happen in the oven.
- Don't over mix! Be sure to mix until dough just barely forms a shaggy dough and then form into a ball. If you want to knead it, be sure you don't work it too much, knead it max 5-6 times.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
- Freeze fresh baked and fully cooled bread for up to 2 months wrapped in plastic or aluminum foil.
