Rub the butter into the flour. Add the salt and soda,
mix all well together by running the dry ingredients
through your fingers.

Add the buttermilk (or sweet milk) and stir into a
soft dough with a wooden spoon. With your floured
hands, knead the dough lightly into a ball and turn
out onto a lightly floured baking sheet.

with a floured knife.

Bake at 425 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes.
