Lavabread is a traditional Welsh delicacy (Welsh: Bara Lawr) made from the seaweed (Porphyra Umillicalis). The seaweed is boiled for several hours. The geletinous paste that results is caled lavabread. lavabread is traditionaly eaten with cockles and bacon or on hot buttered toast. Porphyra Umillicalis was historically harvested off the Gower coastline, near Swansea in South Wales. Swansea Market has several stalls selling only lavabread and cockles from the nearby Gower Peninsular. There are still small producers of Gower lavabread, but most commercial lavabread is harvested and produced from Western Scotland. Lavabread is particularly rich in iodene. It also contains high levels of protein, iron, vitamins B2, A, D and C. Skincare Author, Margaret Yvonne, features lavabread as a very important ingredient in the skincare book, Eczema - Dermatitis and Hives DIY Remedy.
