  1. Bread

    Share Share Post
    People long ago ate bread baked on griddles. They ate oaten cake, potato cake and boxty bread. The oaten bread was the most popular. The boxty was made for halloween. The way they made the boxty was first they washed and peeled the potatoes then they grated the with a tin grater. Then they mixed them with some boiled and mashed potatoes, flour and salt. It was made into cakes and baked in a pot-oven.
