Best Answer

It was put in a pan with a lid on top until it was done. Some breads were also cooked right in the coals. One favorite of Washington was called a Johnny cake that sounds like a form of corn bread.

Hestia is the Goddess of the Hearth. She had a place in every Greek home and in many communities there was a central hearth dedicated to her that anyone could come to for baking bread or whatever.

Where were scones first made?

In very general terms they are European in origin. Originally it is thought that scones were cooked on a griddle or a girdlestone (a bake stone ) heated over an open fire. Such a cooking method was common throughout Europe. In Ireland, Wales and Scotland griddle bread and scones are still cooked in this way from time to time. The Ancient Romans cooked bread in this way on the "focus" their name for the hearth and this gives the origin of focaccia the flat bread many of us enjoy today.
