The Irish, however, really did endure some extra hardships in coming to this country. My great grandfather came from Ireland in the early 1900's and had a rather difficult time. He also attended mass regularly and was devout in his faith. Love the farls!

My grandparents run away from the turkish attack on christians and they went to Lebanon, they brought with them their believes traditions and the idea that one day they are going back home and they never bought a house with all the gold they brought with them, as they own a big house in Turkey.<br />I never heard of this bread before.<br />I like old recipes... I must give yur bread a try.
