Bread is as relevant today as it was in biblical times.
It comes in many shapes and sizes and each country has its own speciality. On this page we will be looking at breads from around the world, how they are made and often times the symbolism attached to them. Traditional Brown Soda Breads are formed into rounds and marked deeply with a cross to ensure even cooking. Some are baked on greased and floured baking sheets, while others are baked in loaf tins. This everyday Irish bread was traditionally baked in a cast iron pot set over the embers of an open fire.
