      Lovely video, but you ate the Yorkshire pudding wrong. It's supposed to be covered in gravy and eaten with a knife and fork to mop up the gravy and eaten with a bit of everything - it's not a bread roll.

    • @lawrenceglaister4364
      @lawrenceglaister4364 Před 11 dny +1

      The Black Pudding is now rated as a super food because of its nutrients .
      The darker the tea the stronger it is , just add extra milk ( the very strong tea is nicknamed as builders tea )
      Don't forget to add salt and pepper to suite your taste and you can with your breakfast use your knife and fork to eat the toast and fried bread along with other ingredients at the same time and of course when eating Yorkshire pudding with your Sunday Roast the knife and fork is great so you don't drip the gravy plus you can add another ingredients or two .

    Great selection of british classics. Alot of british dishes tend to be fairly simple foods, without alot of fancy ingredients. Staple, affordable basics cooked well.
    In the winter it's dark by 3.30 and thats when these really sing.

    We're a small nation surrounded by the sea. I adore seafood of all kinds (although, sadly, many of my fellow Brits do not seem to share may passion!) There is amazing seafood to be had all around our coast - oysters, mussels, cockles and crab to name a few. Locally caught fish, often only a few hours old can be eaten in many places, if you know where to look (of course Google will help you with that).

    Fried bread aka a Fried Slice is very traditional but you don't see it everywhere anymore just because it's seen as unhealthy, I won't have a fried breakfast with toast, it's a fried slice or nothing as it's so delicious! It's most often shallow fried when you make it at home in the fat left in the pan from frying the bacon which makes it extra delicious!

    A well presented selection of British food. Pleased to see you found some good examples and showcased some quality dishes. As a Brit, it's nice to see that you've done your research and showing our food in it's true light. Having eaten in quite a few of the places featured and familiar with all the dishes and foods, I can confirm you picked well.
    Just a tip - whenever you have food in the UK with multiple dishes (British or any other cuisine) the default way of eating is put something of everything on the plate and eat together. I've noticed many Americans taste each item on it's own and pick at each item individually, therefore don't always get the best tasting experience.

    wow you really did your research, hash browns are becoming popular in English breakfasts but are American, Amanda went with bubble which is very traditional and hard to find now. These breakfasts were served for working men in cafes often called greasy spoons to fuel them for the working day. Usually would come with breakfast or builders tea which is less fancy but very tasty. For a next try , dont go for cod for fish and chips Haddock is my favourite and also Huss and try from a seaside town as they are more likely fresher fish and traditional than in London they dont have to be northern can also be southern towns too although the place you chose in London looked good maybe a bit more fancy than we go for. I only put the malt vinegar on the chips. Also there are a lot more british indian dishes to try but you did go for the most popular one, so rare to find someone who realises that indian food is here is british food. My favourites are Rogan Josh and Jalfrezi indian dishes are often spelt slightly differently on menus depending on the chefs origins much like the spelling of kebab and donor changes for regions for example. To experience a proper sunday roast you need to find a local to invite you to a traditional sunday roast as we all pride ourselves in our versions and is way different to a restaurant and everybodys mum will make it differently.

    Aloha, A&F . . . pleased to see that you re both enjoying yourselves on your visit, and the food here so much . . . It's quite normal to see different ingredients used, as well as different types of food available in each country of the UK - not to mention every county in the UK . . . As the more local you are to each county, you will usually find that the produce used will be more local to the area - as in the meats, fish, and the vegetables being used in them . . . Same with the 800+ varieties of cheese we have here, as almost every county will have its own different makes or options, too . . . A lot of foods are also well-known for only being eaten more in a specific area of the UK . . . Fish (of any type) & Chips, or anything like that, crab cakes, etc, are almost always better when you get them from a coastal "Chippy", as the fish and shellfish come straight from the harbour next to them in most instances . . . Crumpets have options, too - just butter on, honey on, jam on, some will even put Marmite on - as I also do occasionally - but my own preference is usually cheese and melt it under the grill - (not from the square shop-bought packs of them like the Kraft ones though - from the real cheeses, from the mild to the extra mature choices that we have!) . .. Enjoyed watching you both - so I hope you will still enjoy it all a lot more and longer yet . . .

    The bangers and mash looked like a Cumberland sausage. The flavour that you might not be familiar with is sage, but there are lots of different types of sausages and spice and herb recipes. Cumberland is certainly a classic.

    You will find sausages are regional in the UK, lincolnshire style sausages are more herby where as cumberland style sausages tend to have more spice.

    Gosh, that was a fantastic review of so many traditional foods that tourists are very wary of trying. Tucking into black pudding for a winning starter to your taste journey when the usual reaction is a fit of the vapours and blind terror before carving off a single tiny crumb to taste was just amazing. You were both so very open to the experience.
    Bravo! Spread the word that we are not still on wartime rations and British food is often not just good but absolutely brilliant. Haggis and deep fried Mars Bars next for you two. 😂

  • @lizg5574
    @lizg5574 Před 16 dny +5

    Sausage rolls are sausage meat (NO casing) with puff or flaky pastry, not croissant dough - totally different way of lamination to make the layers and often salty, not sweet.
    A few of the things you chose are very, very region specific. The Bath Buns, for example, and the pie, mash and liquor - they are seldom seen outside London, so I wouldn't necessarily say they were "must try" foods. You really need to try regional foods, like going into Wales and eating larva bread, Scotland for Haggis and Cullen Skink, down to Cornwall for Pasties and Stargazey Pie, Bedfordshire for a Clanger, Lancashire for Hot Pot.
    And Bubble and Squeak is NOT a typical breakfast food, though it can be added then. It's more often eaten at other times - when first invented it was eaten on Monday to use the left-overs from a Sunday roast, usually around mid-day. And your Sunday roast was a theme, not a true roast. We don't eat steak as a roast meat - we have joints of meat, roasted slowly to the perfect level of done-ness, sliced thinly, covering a third of the plate!
    Sticky toffee pudding is a recently invented thing - not truly traditional. Far more traditional is a treacle tart, spotted dick, Bakewell pudding, even a sherry trifle. The invention of apple pie was from the UK, too! And Rhubarb crumble is amazing - most crumbles are, especially served with custard!
    BUT - your appreciation of all you tried was a pleasure to watch. Thank you for being open to trying some of the things many visitors shy away from and refuse to consider - marmite and black pudding being the most frequent! You'll have to make a return visit and try some of the things I've mentioned and recommendations from other viewers, too!

The clothing was spiffy and matched your vacation as it also seemed a bit chilly. The food looked so good, and I would love to try everything you both ate. I bet there was so much more that you wanted to eat but could not fit it in. With that Fish & Chips I noticed the bottled COKE ZERO. Felix made me so hungry LOL.

    Bravo to both of you!! Thank you for trying real British food, including the dishes that made their home here when people came to live here from overseas. Have to say I held my breath when you tried Marmite. That amount of Marmite goes over a whole slice of toast! 😊 You are correct that tea is taken seriously here. But that tea is really weak compared to how most Brits drink it at home. The average cuppa is about 5 shades darker. The Steak & Kidney Pudding is made with suet pastry which is designed to be boiled or steamed. Your Steak Pie at the chippy was puff pastry.

    Fried bread was originally cooked in the leftover grease from cooking the bacon and sausages. it was a great way not to lose the flavour, much like how the gravy for biscuits & gravy is used. nowadays its just shallow fried in plain oil. try putting a slice inbetween the bacon and egg on a B&E butty.
