Granny O'Brien'S Brown Irish Soda Bread
["4 c. whole meal flour", "1/2 c. oatmeal, slightly soaked", "1 c. white flour", "1 tsp. baking soda", "1 1/2 tsp. salt", "2 to 3 c. plain yogurt"]
["Mix dry ingredients very well or you will get lumps of soda or salt.", "Moisten with yogurt until it has a bendy consistency.", "Work very fast or the soda will lose its snap before you get it to the oven, which you preheat for 5 minutes at 450\u00b0 (gas oven 7 to 8 minutes).", "The intense heat is to harden the crust and stop the gas from escaping.", "Form into a high round on a floured baking sheet, mark with a cross and bake 35 to 40 minutes.", "Yields 1 large loaf which freezes admirably if you want to cut it in half and keep some."]
