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.
