[?] the cake put it down on the hot hearth. Then they would put the ashes over it. When it is well baked they take it up and clean the ashes of it. It is as well baked as any other cake. Pan cakes were made from milk and flour mixed a couple of eggs beaten up and baking powder added. Potatoes scones were made from mashed potatoes and flour and butter added.

The soda-bread is made from soda. The brown bread is made from whole-meal, butter, milk and baking powder. The old people were very fond of potatoes cakes.

They used live on herbs and before the potatoes had grown they pulled the sets from the ground and eat them.Edward O'DwyerRhiannon
