1 lb. all-purpose flour
( or a mix of white and wheat flour )
salt to taste
1/2 tsp. cream or tartar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 pint milk
1 Tbsp. vinegar

Place the flour in a large bowl and add a pinch of salt, plus the cream of tartar and the baking soda. Pour the milk into another bowl, and stir in the vinegar. Then add the milk-vinegar to the flour mixture a little bit at a time to make your dough. Knead this a bit and then shape into a fine, round lump. Score a cross on the top of the loaf and bake in a pre-heated oven at 350 for about 35 to 40 minutes. ( For those wishing a sweet bread, you can add in sugar to taste and some raisins or other dried fruit )
