From: Anne Elizabeth Callery <callery@...> Date: Fri, 14 Oct 1994 00:18:04 -0400 (EDT) Mix dry ingredients. Add enough buttermilk to make a soft dough. Knead the dough lightly. Form a round loaf about as thick as your fist. Place it on a lightly-floured baking sheet and cut a cross in the top with a floured knife. Bake near the top of a preheated 450 degree oven for 30-45 minutes.
Tip: wrap baked bread in a tea towel to keep the crust from getting too hard.
