Soda Bread

Cultural Context

Soda bread originated in Ireland in the 19th century, utilizing baking soda as a leavening agent due to the lack of yeast. This simple bread became a staple in Irish households, often associated with traditional meals and celebrations. Today, variations exist worldwide, incorporating different flours, seeds, and fruits, while still honoring its humble roots.
