Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Grease a baking sheet, set aside.
Mix the milk and vinegar together, set aside to curdle while you continue.
In a large bowl add the flour, sugar, salt, and soda together. Stir gently.
When the milk has curdled (about 8-10 minutes) slowly add it to the flour mixture, stir gently to work it in.
Stop mixing just when the milk has been worked in (the dough will be wet) and turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface.
Knead the dough until a soft dough has formed and can be shaped into a large ball-shaped loaf. (reminder...the dough will be very wet and hard to work, at first!)
Keeping a sharp knife floured, cut a X shape into the top of your dough.
Place the dough ball on to your greased baking sheet.
Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.
