Brought to you in the midst of lockdown, Spice Bags delves into bread. Let’s face it, many of us are making it, and most of us are eating far too much of it.

Why can't you make soda bread outside of Ireland? Why does Blanca call communal ovens in Spain the original Insta? Who are the modern bakers shaking things up in Ireland today? Plus, we talk about bread dick pics. 

Blanca and Dee also chat with Eoin Cluskey, founder and owner of Bread 41, one of the coolest, new bread bakers in town, and who has some pretty frank things to say about our beloved soda bread.
