I feel that cookbook recipe may have been referring to the old rural cooking. I know skillets were used (my mother didn't have one but on the old farms and such they would all have them) and there was absolutely no concern whatever for such things as cholesterol: most probably couldn't spell it; those who could, likely considered it an English plot to keep us from becoming big and strong. I imagine if my aunt were still alive she might remember such things, but I doubt it's a feature of cooking these days. Maybe over in the West, where time stands still.

Mmmm fried bread. I haven’t had it for years, for obvious reasons.

I’ve always wondered if you live in rural Ireland or if you are closer to civilisation? Sorry if it has been covered but I didn’t read back that far.
