Categories     appetizer

Time 7h10m

Yield 1 round loaf

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
4 cups whole wheat flour (stoneground, if possible)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Smoked Scottish salmon
Cream cheese, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  • Warm an 8-inch cast iron skillet or cake pan in the oven for 3 minutes. Take it out, grease and flour it, and place the round dough "cake" in the pan. Using a wet paring knife, make a cross cut on the top of the dough. Cover the pan and bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and wrap bread in a clean tea towel to cool, 5 to 6 hours. Serve with smoked salmon and cream cheese.
