There is a particular tyranny to yeast bread, lovely as it is: the proving, the timing, the way it ties you to the kitchen for half a day. Soda bread laughs at all of that. From the moment you decide you want it to the moment it is cooling on the rack is under an hour, with maybe ten minutes of actual work. No yeast, no kneading, no waiting for anything to rise on the counter. It is the bread you make when someone is coming round and you forgot, or when toast simply will not do, and it never lets me down.
