I have enjoyed reading about the interest in Irish bread. I now live on Australia and whenever I go home to Nth Ireland my sister knows I love wheaten bread spread with lots of lovely Irish butter. Marlene's message about the Amish bread made with grains reminded me of Indian meal scones. They have disappeared from the bakeries since the 1950s' Do any of you know what Indian meal is and have you had these scones? Might I suggest that as well as searching and recording our ancestors we could add a few recipes for the simple food of our childhood.
