Now you're talking, Jags!

Actually, soda bread is my second fave Irish bread. There's another one, called "swamp bread", that was available only from one shop in a lane off the Main Street, baked by the wife of the owner. It was a flat round bread made without yeast, with slices of tomato in it. Haven't been able to get it for many moons, since the shop closed. Big loss that. No idea whether it was only a local specialty, or maybe something the lady perhaps picked up from the Traveller community -- I say that because even more moons ago, I ate with a family of gypsies in Hungary, and they gave me bread very similar that they cooked on stones heated by their fire.

Some dishes I like cooking are at http://coolmainpress.com/andrejutefoodindex.html (http://coolmainpress.com/andrejutefoodindex.html), for those who haven't seen them yet.
