Summary

Before ovens and ranges became popular in the nineteenth century, most bread was baked on a griddle, which was hung over the family fire. Rolled thin for ease of baking, the bread was traditionally cut in four quarters or 'farls', with a cross-sliced into the bread before cooking. Rumour has it this was to rid the bread of any demons and to let it rise, thus it was considered lucky bread!

Irwin's Traditional Soda Farls Recipes


Today Irwin's Soda Farls are still made with the traditional ingredients of flour, baking soda, fresh buttermilk and salt. The distinctive triangular shaped bread is best served halved and toasted with jam or cheese, or shallow fried as an accompaniment to cooked breakfasts.
