Soda biscuit

What is "soda biscuit"?

A soda biscuit is a type of biscuit that is leavened with baking soda instead of yeast. The biscuit is made from a mixture of flour, baking soda, salt, and buttermilk, which gives it a slightly crumbly texture and a subtle tangy flavor. The dough is typically mixed together until it is smooth, then rolled out and cut into circles or squares using a biscuit cutter. The biscuits are then baked until they are golden brown and fluffy. Soda biscuits are often served alongside breakfast or with soup or stew, and can be enjoyed with butter, jam, or honey. They are a popular comfort food in many cultures and are often associated with simplicity, warmth, and home-style cooking.
