1 tsp salt
2 tsp cream of tartar
2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 tsp mixed herbs
2 Tbsp grated cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp sunflower seed oil
200 ml cold water

Prepare abread tin or any other deep tin: brush with a little sunflower oil and dust with buckwheat flour.
Sift into a bowl the flours, salt, cream of tartar and bicarbonate of soda.
Stir in the herbs and cheese.
Make a well in the middle and add the oil and ¾ of the water.
Mix with finger tips, until you have a firm dough.
Add more water if necessary, buckwheat flour tends to absorb a lot of liquid.
Place the dough in the prepared tin and bake for 20-25 minutes.

If it comes out dry, the bread is ready.
When cool, slice it and fill with cheese or peanut butter or vegetable pate.
