There are countless variations, white and brown, with butter or without, and some with currants, caraway seeds, and all kinds of other additions, but this one has been my favorite for over a decade: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/White-Soda-Bread-1907 Still, though, I will never understand the seemingly common aversion to kneading bread.

The recipe we use is fantastic - the bread is ready almost in one hour, and tastes delicious. Check the recipe and the photo at http://bit.ly/j2uW Also, I would not recommend to keep the bread in aluminum foil, because it's not good for your health. We keep ours in a cotton cloth on kitchen shelf. It lasts even for a week and even more (I prefer older bread over fresh one :) ) We bake the bread at home from whole wheat spelt flour, and add sesame and pumpkin seeds.

Works perfectly. And if your bread lasts for longer than 4 days... you're not eating enough bread. ;) Why do you stick the bread in aluminum foil?Down here in belgium we use paperbags.
