Grinder bread

Does anyone know if it's available outside of Cork, Waterford or Tipperary? I can never find it anywhere else and I know people from other counties who have never heard of it. A great shame, really - it's so bloody tasty!

I'm from Waterford and I've never heard of it

You may know it by a different name, I'm not sure. It's what my family and friends have always called it. grinder.jpg

That's "turnover". So called because they turn the dough over on itself - source: Baker in the family.

It's available in any decent bakery

I'm nearly sure my mam got that in Tesco in dundrum. It's in clear packaging with a kind of cream label.

If it wasn't Tesco it was superquinn in ballinteer. I'm Sure the other branches have them...

Duckloaf! Smashing stuff. You haven't lived until you've had it from Considines bakery in kilrush.

It is made from the sweat of hard working folks, rather than using water to create the dough, tis 1 of the reasons it is hard to come by, tis like a drug once you taste it, it is like the life force of many people who worked hard and sweated, who needs shark fins.
