Subject: RE: BS: Irish Soda Bread
Any of you US-Irish recognise 'wheaten bread'?

Mum originally came from the North of Ireland - it seems the wheaten bread she brought back from trips over the Irish sea, may well have been a particular type of soda bread specifically hailing from that region.

She also liked Irish 'potato bread' for her morning fry-ups: triangles of leadenly dense white flour and mashed potato, fried crispy on both sides and topped with fried eggs.
