  1. Bread

    Share Share Post
    The bread they used in former times was oneway bread and Potato cake. The oneway bread was made from flour which they made in the homes with a quern. A quern consists of two round stones with an axle in the middle and a hole near the axle to put in the wheat. There was a handle in the side and according as the wheat was ground it used fall out at the sides. There is a quern at Patrick Shaughnessy's in Killobraher. There was a small mill in former times worked by a little stream in John Stack's farm in Granard. They used bake cakes in a griddle.
