Preparation / Directions:
Mix all the dry ingredients. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk gradually, using a knife to mix. As soon as a dough is formed, turn it onto a floured board and knead it lightly. It should be soft and elastic. Form a round loaf. Prick it with a fork and cut a deep cross in the top of the loaf. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes. The loaf should sound hollow when fully cooked. Wrap the loaf immediately in a tea towel and put on a rack to cool.
