Serving Ideas : It's best eaten fresh with butter and jam but is also
delicious fried as part of an Ulster breakfast.
NOTES : Soda bread dough is flattened into a round circle, and
divided into farls meaning 4 parts. It is then cooked on a dry
griddle or pan. Traditionally this was the quickest way to make soda
bread for unexpected guests who drop by for a bit of craic (good fun).
