ppl really need to stop defending british food with "rationing", bestie that ended ages ago and theres a reason no one eats Tripe anymore 🙃

its also devaluing british food by implying that it IS bad because, well, it couldn't be better back then and hasn't improved since. you're not defending it, you're just goving a reason why it's bad

and a lot of british food isn't bad

a lot of british people are bad cooks, or the food made is a lesser version of another country's dish and that's why it's bad

but it can be sooo good and i hate that your defense is just going "well it Does suck but..."

that's not a defence and i hate you

#predgertrones biritsh breakfast post is rlly getting to me tbh #the notes r annoying #ohhh it looks bad #sure the lighting and plating is shit #but you going on a ten paragraph rant about the war is counter productive #you know other countries that are well known for their good cuisine also went through war and rationing right???????? #anyway now im rlly hungering for a yorkshire pudding

Made pastry for the first time today!

It was a nice shortcrust that worked well for my slices :) I’ll need to find a way to stop it splitting open and pouring all over the baking paper, but I think that was mostly on the geometry I cut them into and not the consistency of the pastry itself, which seemed solid and had a nice crust :)

#food #Also I've realised that a lot of british cuisine is just stew with extra steps #Pie? Stew in a pastry; Dumplings? Bread in stew; Slices? Stew in different pastry; Yorkshire pudding? Stew in bread; Pasties? Stew in a thir #d type of pastry; Shepherd's pie? Stew under potatoes; Hotpot? Stew under whatever; Roast dinner? Deconstructed stew.

how does english cuisine differ from scottish cuisine generally

Good question and I’m not entirely sure how to answer besides saying I find Scottish cuisine more interesting but that’s probably because I don’t really know much about English cuisine.

Black pudding, haggis, Cullen skink, Cranachan are all pretty definable for me. When I think of English cuisine it’s mainly Yorkshire puddings and some sort of roast (and jellied eels which sound bogging)

I don’t even think fish and chips can really claim to be English cuisine but they can have it if they want.

Hey Galina. Would you please share the names of your favourite vegetarian/vegan cookbooks?

My go-to book for inspiration and guidance is Vegan Cuisine by Jean-Christian Jury. The bad news is, it's out of print and used copies are ludicrously priced. The good news is Jury has since published another book, Vegan: The Cookbook, which I would imagine is equally good.

Aside from Jury I'm a huge fan of Anna Jones, who was an apprentice under Jamie Oliver and has since written many easy recipes which focus on the natural deliciousness of fresh vegetables and quality ingredients. Her book, A Modern Cook's Year, is almost more artbook than cookbook – the book is split into spring, summer, autumn and winter, with recipes based around seasonal vegetables.

Cooking from Kaushy Patel's Prashad takes me back to the memories of growing up in Yorkshire, where food from Northern India and Southern Pakistan is a huge part of the culinary landscape. It’s my comfort food.

I also love Jack Munroe for their work as an active campaigner for a number of causes in the UK, particularly those concerned with poverty and hunger. Cooking on a Bootstrap is an essential book for those looking to cook in less time, with less money, and without premium gadgets or inaccessibly rare ingredients.

Everything I learned about bread I got from Daniel Steven's River Cottage Handbook, Bread.

Not a cookbook but equally pleasing is In The Kitchen, a collection of essays on cooking, food and life. It explores the ways food informs our cultural identity, what stories we tell ourselves about the kitchen, how the cookbooks we read shape us.

Sunday Roast at The Brook

I'm not an expert, but to me, the concept of a Sunday Roast is as British as afternoon tea or adding 'innit' to the end of all your sentences. There are so many pubs that offer this quintessential British cuisine, but today, I'm reviewing the Sunday Roast offered at The Brook. Located on Mill Road, The Brook is a cozy-sized pub with a warm atmosphere and some delicious ciders available...but how does their Sunday Roast hold up?

British Top Side Roast Beef with Horseradish Sauce (15 pounds)

I had such MIXED FEELINGS about this Sunday Roast. It was a roller coaster of emotions served up with a half-vat of gravy on the side. Some bites had my eyes rolling back in my head with ecstasy. Other bites belonged in the frozen aisle of a discount grocery store. Because of this, I'll rank each item, individually, from worst to best.

6. The Vegetables

I adore roasted veggies. Throw some broccoli, carrots, onions, and cloves of garlic on a roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, toss some salt and pepper on top, and chuck that baby into the oven and I am more than happy. But these veggies had no tales to tell - they were bland, flavorless, steamed, and unhappy. Just like me after eating the lifeless carrots.

5. Top Side Beef

Seeing as it's called a Sunday ROAST, you'd think the meat would be the star of the show. And while it looks quite nice in the picture, the beef was so dry that I had to resort to dunking it into the gravy in order to make it palatable. It also didn't have much flavor beyond the gravy itself, which leads me to...

4. The Gravy

Solidly fine, and served with a generous portion. However, could do with more of a flavor PUNCH. As it was, I used it mostly as a moist-maker.

3. The Stuffing

And all of a sudden we jump from 'solidly fine' to 'oh my god, I wish I could ask for seconds.' The stuffing is invisible in this picture, and was a surprise to me. In fact, now that I'm writing this, I'm wondering if I got a different roast than the one on the menu...perhaps a holiday offering? Because stuffing isn't mentioned in the description, and I'm just realizing that there was no horseradish sauce in sight, either...hmm, well, all's well that ends well, because I'm glad for the swap. This stuffing was moist and packed with flavor - it tasted of salt, herbs, and garlic, and had a dense, crumbly texture. My only complaint was that there was such a small amount - it hid beneath the potatoes, a noble treasure.

2. The Yorkshire Pudding

My first bite of the Sunday Roast was a chunk of the fluffy, soft Yorkshire Pudding - and I can't be certain I didn't moan. It's been six months since the last time I had a Yorkshire Pudding, and I now realize that that is far too long. Honestly, I know a lot of people rag on British food, but the Yorkshire Pudding deserves to be appreciated internationally. I just wish I could describe it better, for those who've never tried one. It's almost like...the love child of a souffle, a pancake, and pita bread...but also different from all of those things. The texture is NEXT LEVEL. So freaking fluffy. And the perfect vessel for soaking up pan sauces and gravy. Ugh, I would have traded the beef for another Yorkshire Pudding with no hesitation. And honestly, the Yorkshire Pudding was probably THE best thing on the plate...but, they're also pretty hard to get wrong. Put a Yorkie P on my plate, and I'll be happy almost always. Although, I won't take away from The Brook here - they do a particularly good one.

The Roast Potatoes

After tasting the sad veg, I feared the potatoes would also be steamed and unseasoned. Instead, The Brook said 'try the best fucking roasted potatoes you've ever had, ye of little fucking faith.'

Crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside, these taters were perfectly cooked. Flavorful on their own, they verged on orgasmic when slathered in gravy. And I don't even usually LIKE roast potatoes!

So, now, hopefully, you see why this Sunday Roast is hard to rate. How do you compare the worst steamed veggies I've ever had - even the ones in elementary school had salt on them - to the fucking best roast potatoes I've ever had?! It's madness. Madness! While the stuffing and the Yorkshire puddings also pull their own weight, I will say, because the meat is supposed to be the focal point of a Sunday Roast, I'm going to have to give this particular roast at The Brook a...

Rating: 6 out of 10 Gravy Boats

Honestly, if I had just been handed a plate of Yorkshire Pudding and Roast Potatoes, the score would have been much higher...although I'd be eating nothing but carbs. Still. Some things in life are worth every bite, while other things - like the dry beef - are barely worth chewing.

for any traveller to the united kingdom. you cannot trust fish and chips in the southeast as it is more seafood territory (oysters cockles etc). London you need to be careful: there are very few places. Only one i trust currently is Poppy's who have branches in Spitalfields and Camden market, though marked down for price. In a regular climate, a regular fish and chips should not exceed £10, though due to cozzie livs i can forgive £12. i think Poppy's is at £14...

Up next is the area I didn't expect to be so good which is the south west (excluding cornwall but thats okay cornish cuisine is good). In somerset is where the big money is but you have to go out of the way (i.e. off the railway lines and onto a bus) for it. it's called Tuckers and is the best fish and chips outside of the north IN MY OPINION spongebobscared. it is executed nearly as good as northern fish and chips with the chips tasting like they're fried in beef dripping which makes them taste bloody lovely. they have 2 shops, one in Cheddar (yes like the cheese they age the cheese in the caves nd shit) and another in nearby Wells, which is easier to access by means of many buses from Bath. price falls around the £11 mark for a pretty precisely filling meal.

In the north, the fish and chips game is absolutely head and shoulders above the world. My personal go-to because its not a.far detour from the M1 is the Wetherby Whaler's original shop in Wetherby, though they have multiple other branches in small towns nearby in Yorkshire. this falls very much further on the affordable scale, with my large haddock and chips falling squarely on the £12 sum and a regular being only £8.30 (!!). the point of caution here is for my cod girlies, since the Whaler sole-ly serves haddock because in particularly Yorkshire it is the fish of choice (in my opnion for good reason; its a tastier fish than cod). the benefit of the Whaler is that it serves scraps for free if you ask for them, with scraps for the uninitiated being the bits of batter that come off in the fryer and which are stored for order in the best chippies. Though. Word of warning if you see the Jumbo and think you can eat it. you must not have eaten all day. because that shit is very near as long as my arm and i am over 6 feet tall. if you're just famished and not ravenous settle for the large. it'll be more than enough i promise it's like 14 inches long

also its not in the nicest town in the world but if you're in redcar id recommend Oliver's because its on par with the Whaler on price though ill caveat that with the fact ive not been there for around 8 years because redcar i must reiterate is not a nice place to go by choice.

#anyone who lives northwest wheres the best chippy #i thijk i havr adhd. #!

British people may be subhuman swine, but their cuisine slaps. I’d commit atrocities for a roast beef and Yorkshire pudding dinner.

The rolling hills and verdant valleys of Yorkshire are a sight to behold. Its beauty is unmatched, a source of inspiration for artists, writers, and poets alike. The land seems to breathe, each blade of grass quivering in the wind, each tree rustling in the breeze.

As you walk through the countryside, the earth beneath your feet feels alive. You can hear the murmur of streams as they wind their way through the fields, carrying the secrets of the land with them. The sky above is an endless canvas, painted with hues of blue and white, a never-ending panorama of beauty.

Every step you take is a revelation, every turn in the path a new discovery. The rolling hills offer a never-ending vista of breath-taking beauty, while the valleys below invite you to explore their secrets. The silence is broken only by the gentle sound of leaves rustling in the breeze, and the occasional cry of a bird soaring high in the sky.

The landscape of Yorkshire is a living, breathing work of art, a masterpiece of nature's creation. It is a tapestry woven with the finest threads of beauty, a canvas painted with the brushstrokes of the divine. Here, one can find solace from the hustle and bustle of modern life and connect with the innermost self.

The beauty of Yorkshire is not just in its physical landscape, but in its people as well. Yorkshire folk are a proud and hardy breed, their spirit forged in the fires of hardship and toil. Their hospitality is legendary, their warmth and kindness unmatched. They welcome you with open arms, and make you feel at home in their land.

The Yorkshire spirit is reflected in the many charming villages and bustling market towns that dot the countryside. Each has its own unique character, its own story to tell. The old stone buildings and cobbled streets speak of a time long gone, while the modern amenities and vibrant culture of the people offer a glimpse of the present.

There are endless possibilities for exploration in Yorkshire, from the moors to the coast. You can take a leisurely stroll through the countryside, explore the many museums and galleries, or indulge in the delicious local cuisine. Whatever your interest, there is something to discover in this magical land.

In the end, the beauty of Yorkshire is not something that can be captured in words or images. It is something that must be experienced first-hand, a journey of the heart and soul. It is a place of unparalleled beauty, a land of dreams and inspiration, a place that will stay with you forever.

what's the best meal you've ever eaten? what makes it stand out (setting, food, company, surrounding events, etc)?

[Sorry in advance for recipe-blogging you. This answer is a lot about the surrounding events]

In 2010 my ma and me went on a vacation to London. It was a really cool vacation because I aleardy could speak English well enough to communicate with people and knew a lot of cool attractions from English class we didn't need a tour guide and were on our own most of the time. But we did a few trips to places outside of London. One of them was to Stratford-upon-Avon. This trip was with a tour guide and a group. It was a Shakespeare-themed tour. We visited the house were Shakespeare is assumed to be born. Anyway I felt kind of ill for most of the tour and one of the stops was some really old church. As soon as I stepped inside and inhaled that old-church-air I felt sick to my stomach and I excused myself. I was staying in the bus while the rest of the group was inside the church. After that my ma picked me up and us and the rest of the group went for lunch. We went to some restaurant there and the meals were pre-ordered. I didn't knew what I was about to get exactly. When I started to eat it turned out that the reason I felt so sick was because I was just extremely hungry.

The meal was Yorkshire pudding I didn't like, some vegetables, some potatoes that were really good and now the most important part: the SUNDAY ROAST!!! Definitely the best thing I ate in my entire life.

What I like about it: First of all it's prepared meat - that already makes it really good. Then it just had the perfect degree of idk how to say this properly, sourness???. Then the potatoes and the sauce that were served with it complemented it perfectly. It was already extremely well prepared meal but I think the circumstances (the tour, the extreme hunger to the point of feeling ill, that I never heard of this meal before) enhanced the experience. But the Sunday roast itself was so fucking good. Anyway, this is also why I don't like when people talk shit about the English cuisine.

tl;dr: sunday roast in that one restaurant in Stratford-upon-Avon

     “What are you making, Bug?” Johnny called from the living room as he came in from outdoors. He’d been checking out the landscape, trying to get ideas for his business. He’d taken some pictures for inspiration and when he walked back into the house, it had smelled amazing, finding Robyn at the stove making them dinner. 

“I found a recipe for Yorkshire pudding in a book here on the counter,” Robyn called back. “They had all the ingredients stocked up. It says it’s a local cuisine so...I’m trying it.” 

Johnny grinned. Of course she’d want to try it. She had become a pretty good cook over the years. He wiped his boots on the mat and came over to where Robyn was cooking, standing behind her to look and see what she had so far. “Need any help?” he offered. 

“No,” she told him immediately. While Robyn had become a great cook, Johnny was better suited for the grill. Any time he was in the kitchen was a disaster. It made him laugh how quickly she’d told him that and he nodded. 

“Alright, then I’m going to go chop more wood for the fireplace.” Johnny grunted, flexing a little like he was going to go do something manly. “Be a real man.” Robyn chuckled, telling him to be careful as he headed back outside to go chop wood.

Exploring Leeds: A Tapestry of History, Culture, and Weather

Nestled in the core of West Yorkshire, England, Leeds emerges as a vibrant mosaic interwoven with its rich past, diverse culture, and ever-shifting weather patterns. Spanning centuries, the narrative of Leeds reflects resilience, ingenuity, and evolution, molding its essence and essence over time.

Delving into the Past:

Leeds traces its roots back to medieval times, its name is believed to originate from the Old English term "Loidis", symbolizing wooded terrain. From as early as the 5th century, Celtic and Anglo-Saxon tribes inhabited the region, laying the groundwork for what would blossom into a bustling urban hub.

Yet, it was during the Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries that Leeds witnessed its true metamorphosis. Fueled by the thriving textile industry, particularly wool production, the city experienced unprecedented expansion and prosperity. Mills and factories proliferated, drawing migrants seeking opportunities. Rapidly, Leeds earned renown as the "Wool Capital of the World," dominating global markets with its textile exports.

Today, remnants of Leeds industrial past stand as silent sentinels, reminders of a bygone era. Yet, the city continues to evolve, embracing change while honoring its heritage. From historic landmarks to modern skyscrapers, Leeds is a testament to resilience and renewal, and its story is a testament to the indomitable spirit of its people.

Preserving Heritage and Inheritance:

One of the most striking examples of Leeds' commitment to preserving its heritage is evident in its architectural landscape. Iconic landmarks such as the Leeds Corn Exchange and Temple Works stand as proud reminders of the city's industrial prowess, their imposing facades telling stories of innovation and enterprise. These historic buildings have been lovingly restored and repurposed, serving as vibrant hubs of commerce, culture, and community.

Moreover, Leeds boasts an impressive array of museums, galleries, and heritage sites, each offering a glimpse into the city's storied past. The Leeds City Museum, for example, showcases artifacts spanning centuries of history, from ancient Roman relics to contemporary cultural treasures. Similarly, the Royal Armouries Museum offers a fascinating insight into Leeds' martial heritage, housing one of the most extensive collections of arms and armor in the world.

Beyond its physical landmarks, Leeds cultural institutions play a vital role in preserving and promoting its heritage. The city's theaters, music venues, and art galleries celebrate its artistic legacy, providing a platform for local talent and international artists alike. Events such as the Leeds International Film Festival and Leeds Light Night further underscore the city's dedication to cultural preservation and innovation.

A Cultural Kaleidoscope:

Beyond its historical significance, Leeds pulsates with a vibrant cultural scene, brimming with creativity and dynamism. The city hosts a diverse spectrum of artistic expressions, from riveting theater productions to avant-garde exhibitions.

The Leeds Playhouse, formerly the West Yorkshire Playhouse, stands as a beacon of theatrical brilliance, captivating audiences with its innovative performances. Similarly, music aficionados flock to venues such as the First Direct Arena and Brudenell Social Club, indulging in a melodic tapestry woven by local and international acts.

Moreover, Leeds' culinary landscape mirrors its cultural diversity, offering a cornucopia of flavors from across the globe. Whether relishing traditional Yorkshire fare or exploring exotic cuisines, gastronomes find themselves spoilt for choice.

Navigating the Elements:

The Leeds' weather is characterized by its maritime climate, with mild winters, cool summers, and regular rainfall throughout the year. The city's proximity to the Pennines exerts influence, with sporadic snowfall lending a wintry charm.

While Leeds is accustomed to occasional downpours, its inhabitants embrace the capricious weather with resilience. Green spaces like Roundhay Park and Temple Newsam offer serene sanctuaries during sunny intervals, while snug cafes and pubs provide refuge during chillier, wetter spells.

In Conclusion:

Leeds emerges as a captivating amalgamation of bygone eras, contemporary vibrancy, and ever-changing climates. From its industrial origins to its modern allure, the city evolves, navigating the currents of time with grace. Whether exploring historical landmarks, immersing oneself in cultural treasures, or indulging in culinary delights, Leeds invites visitors to embark on an enchanting journey through its dynamic tapestry.
