Stokbrood with salted butter

By Hannah Lewry

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 35 minutes

Cooking Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

500 g cake flour
1 t bicarbonate of soda
1 t sea salt
30 g cold butter, cubed, plus extra for serving
2 cups buttermilk

Method

Place all the dry ingredients in a bowl and rub in the butter using your fingertips. Once the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, add the buttermilk a little at a time, using a butter knife to mix until a dough forms.

Divide into small squash-ball-sized portions, roll into long strips and twist around skewers or sticks.

Braai over open flames until slightly charred and cooked through. Serve hot with butter.

Cook’s note: You could also order 1–2 kg of bread dough from your local bakery to pick up on your way to your camping spot.
