The e aig teas meadhan ar d貌igh beatha. Chan ann a-mh脿in ann an Alba, ach air feadh an t-saoghail. Ach d猫 a tha aran dha-r矛ribh a' ciallachadh dha mac an duine? Tha Alasdair MacLe貌id, a tha d矛oghrasach mu 脿ran, a' gabhail turas s貌nraichte tarsaing Alba son sgeulachd na lofa iriosal innse.
Aig aon 脿m bha taighean-fuine, beag agus m貌r, anns a h-uile baile ann an Alba, 's na taighean-fuine aig cridhe gach coimhearsnachd. Tha a' mh貌r chuid dhiubh d霉inte a-nis ge-t脿, as d猫idh farpais bho na b霉than m貌ra. Ach tha cuid de dhaoine ag ath-nuadhachadh aran as 霉r.
Tha taigh-fuine an Eilean Sgitheanaich am measg iomadach taigh-fuine beag s貌nraichte a th' air nochdadh air feadh na d霉thcha, le d貌ighean traidiseanta aig an cridhe.

It's at the centre of most of our lives, not just in Scotland but across the world. But what does bread really mean to us? Join bread enthusiast Alasdair MacLeod as he takes a unique road trip across Scotland to tell the story of the humble loaf.
At one time there were bakeries, large and small, in every town in Scotland, with the bakery at the very heart of the community. Most of them are now closed after competition from the supermarkets, but some folk are giving bread a new lease of life.
The Isle of Skye Baking Company is one of many small artisan bakeries to emerge across the country, with traditional methods at its heart. Alasdair also meets with some who are teaching others to make bread as it should be, and also explores the therapeutic opportunities of baking bread to help people with learning difficulties to engage with life. Amongst them is the Bread Maker in Aberdeen.
