โI decided to bake some homemade soda bread just like my mum used to make as we thought it would be fun for the kids and us to do together. Itโs so good and easy to make! It also brought back lots of fond memories of my mum who unfortunately passed on a few years ago from dementia. Iโve tried to find buttermilk everywhere and couldnโt, so I was told by a lovely lady to substitute plain yoghurt and water it down. It worked a treat. Everybody has their own soda bread recipe, so do have a go and have fun with the kids along the way.โ – Peter Farren
