Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups of the flour, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Add 1 1/2 cups buttermilk, 1 cup raisins (if using), and 1 teaspoon caraway seeds (if using). Stir just until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 1 to 2 minutes, gradually adding an additional ½ to 1 cup of flour as needed until the dough is firm but not sticky.
- Shape the dough into a round ball and lightly dust the surface with flour. Place it on an ungreased baking sheet. Using a sharp knife, slash a 1-inch (2.5 cm) deep cross on top of the loaf.
- Bake for 35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Transfer to a wire rack to cool before slicing.
Notes
- *This bread is a salty bread. If you are sensitive to salt or prefer it to be more plain, you can reduce the salt to 1 teaspoon.
