    obtained from home-grown wheat. This flour is mixed in a basin with buttermilk and a little soda is added. Soda bread is made in the same way as wheaten bread, the only difference being that the flour used is obtained from foreign wheat. On special occasions, such as Christmas times, currants, raisins and carraway seed are adden to the ingredients when making bread. The amount of bread necessary for the day is usually made on the preceding night.
