Farl

A farl is any of several quadrant-shaped flatbreads or cakes traditionally made by cooking dough on a griddle in a round shape and cutting it into four pieces, a name derived from the Lowland Scots word fardel, meaning a fourth part. In Ulster, farls most often refer to soda bread, while potato farls also appear as an ingredient in the traditional Ulster fry; commercial potato farls are frequently rectangular rather than quartered. In Scotland the term is used less today but can describe quartered scones, bannocks, oatcakes or shortbread.
