Whenever my Irish relatives came to visit, my Granny (along with her two Brothers and Sister in law) would make this delicious bread to go along with our feast like breakfast. I can’t tell you how happy I am to have found this traditional recipe. Granny has passed now and those days are long gone so I’m truly looking forward to making this. Thank you.

[@robertsettle2590]

I am Southern Missouri English. I am going on my 97 year here in these OZARK mountains. For the first part of my life my mother would fry potato cakes with bacon grease and lard. Then topped with a little fresh butter. We didn't have proper toasted potato cakes until after the war. That is about the time we were able to afford and buy a toaster.

[@kathygibbons5302]

This sweet Gran reminds me of my Aunt Nancy Halley of Ballinhala, who taught me this recipe and soda bread, also without a bowl. Straight up on the board! She also taught me how to bank the hot cinders in the iron stove to regulate baking temps. Years later when I took the Girl Scout leader training for outdoor skills, I was the only one not afraid to assemble w/o a board and to trust natural outdoor cooking. I am forever grateful to my Auntie and my Gran, Kitty Gibbons, who brought me 'home' to Ireland. Blessings to this sweet lady sharing her gift to all of us ☘!

Looks like something I need to make. The beautiful yellow color of the butter brings back memories when cows actually were fed grass in the U.S.

[@peterperigoe9231]

strange as it may seem of course the quality of the milk /cream matters, yet cold cream makes a whiter butter, ambient temperature makes a more yellow coloured butter.

[@thisorthat7626]

@@peterperigoe9231 Thanks for the info. I didn't know that. Cheers.

[@graceanne385]

Irish cows are grassfed 80-90% of the year and eat straw only for a short time in winter. That is why the butter is yellow. Our butter has a much higher fat content than american butter with less lactose and that is due to where and how they live and how it is made. . I have lived in America for 31 years but I have always used only Irish butter. I used to have to buy it in specialty shops but now thank heavens they sell Kerrygold butter everywhere. I stand corrected, I meant to say hay, not straw.

[@graceanne385]

PasadenaSue “”Kerrygold is one of the best known brands of Irish butter - perhaps one of the best known Irish brands period if you’re into cooking and baking. Irish butter is a European-style butter and has a higher butterfat content than the average American butter. This translates into a richer, creamier texture for the butter. Kerrygold’s is a little different from other European butters because it has a lot more flavor. It has a tangy note that might remind you of cheese or buttermilk, and as unusual as that might sound at first, it is that little extra bit of savoriness that makes this butter a real standout. That extra flavor is said to be the result of the rich, grass-heavy diet that the cows have in Ireland.””

I’m from Northern Ireland and my Dad was a bread delivery man for Sunblest (anyone from Northern Ireland will know this brand ! ). Every Saturday morning after he had stocked up his van at the bakery for the Saturday run he came back home for breakfast and Mum would have made a big Ulster Fry for the whole family with the still warm from the bakery squares of potato bread , soda bread and pancakes complimented of course with bacon , beef sausages, black pudding and the obligatory fried eggs and a big mug of strong tea you could stand a spoon up in ! My oldest brother lives in England and before potato bread was available in the shops there any time he came home on a visit he would half fill his suitcase with tattie bread and sodas to put in his freezer.
