  • Classic British Fish pie, also known as fisherman's pie, is a traditional British dish with a rich history and a significant place in British cuisine.
    Fish pies date back to medieval times in England, where fish was a staple in the diet, especially during Lent and other religious observances when meat was restricted.
    Early fish pies were quite different from modern versions. They often included whole fish and various spices encased in a pastry crust rather than topped with mashed potatoes.
    Fish pie recipes began appearing in cookbooks during the 17th and 18th centuries. These versions often included a variety of seafood, sometimes mixed with dried fruits and spices, reflecting the culinary trends of the time.
    Pastry remained the primary covering for these pies.
    The mashed potato topping, which is now a hallmark of the dish, was introduced in the 19th century. This change likely resulted from the increased availability and affordability of potatoes.
    This period also marked a shift towards using creamy sauces in the filling, often flavored with herbs and spices.
    Today's fish pie typically includes white fish, smoked fish, and sometimes shellfish like prawns, all cooked in a creamy tarragon or parsley-flecked sauce.
    When baked, the filling is topped with mashed potatoes, often ridged with a fork to create a crispy, golden surface.
    It's a comforting, hearty dish enjoyed year-round in the UK and has also found popularity in other parts of the world.
    There are many regional variations of fish pie, with some versions incorporating local seafood and ingredients, reflecting the diverse culinary heritage of the British Isles.
    Alongside homemade versions, fish pie is a popular dish in British pubs and restaurants, often featured on menus as a traditional favourite.
    Chefs have created gourmet versions of fish pie, elevating the dish with high-quality seafood, artisanal cheeses, and creative flavorings.
    Fish pie remains a beloved dish that combines simplicity with rich flavors, making it a timeless classic in British cuisine.

    My nan used to make fish soup...she cut smoked cod into bite size pieces and put them in a pot with just enough water to cover them...boil them till tender, replace water when needed, and remove excess salt foam as it cooked...dice some potatoes small and put in with fish when fish is almost cooked.....cook till potatoes are soft.... keep water almost covering the fish and potatoes and add milk to it....put on simmer and heat till the water and milk are warm.....its a simple recipe with no extra spices and tastes amazing....we all loved it as kids and had her make it a few times a week for us...i still make it when i can get the smoked fish.....she made fish pie but only with smoked fish...

      We call that fish chowder here in North America. Onions, celery, potatoes, bay leaves, corn, peas or peppers (optional), salt & pepper. Can use any type of fish or seafood combo. Add milk or cream just prior to serving. If you have the Hoi Paloi (the Pope, the President, King, Prime Minister etc.) coming to lunch with you, you can accidently spill a good slurp of some good brandy in it at the same time you are adding the milk/cream to it. Served with a crusty slice of bread or bun.

    I haven't had a fish pie in years. My mum used to make it weekly on those chilly winter nights, and once per month during the rest of the year. Due to my dislike for most seafood, it was made with just smoked haddock, frozen sweet corn, and frozen peas. My mum would poach skinless fillets of smoked haddock in milk, and then flake them into large pieces in the baking dish. I used to love it, and that's the only thing that mattered.

    The best meal I had in England was a fish pie in a pub in Exmouth. Beautiful buttery potatoes atop a ramekin of haddock, scallops, and prawns. No peas,but the mushrooms married with the bechamel and seafood and sent me to heaven. I had it with a pint of Tetley's because the barman recommended it, but I think I would have preferred it with a porter.

    Yum!!! I don't eat meat, but I adore everything fishy, and have a freezer full of sea food, so this will definitely be my Sunday lunch tomorrow!!!
    My mum used to make fish pie on Fridays, but it was mainly mash with just a bit of cod...well it was just after the war and exotic seafood was scarce and expensive, and would remain so for many years. My favourite school dinner was always Friday's fish & chips, with bread and butter!

    I absolutely love and appreciate your history of each dish! I was wondering what era this dish was created and found the answer. It seems like dishes are created from what people have at their hands. So these people in GB would have had access to cows (milk butter), chickens (eggs), garden (peas and potatoes) and near the ocean for the fish.😎

    This reminds me of when I lived in St Lucia, by the sea. I had invited two couples I'd met who had sailed their respective yachts across the Atlantic: one all the way from Australia and the other from England. Then, I found out that a member of one couple ate no meat, but did eat fish, and a member of the other couple ate no vegetables, except potatoes. Oh my! So, being English, the obvious solution was a fish pie - no peas! (But I served a side salad for the rest of us.) I used fresh red snapper and fresh-water crayfish from a nearby river. Delicious!

      Is English mustard hot ? Could i use dry mustard in the sauce, instead? i have wanted to try smoked haddock ever since i saw a show on English breakfast with smoked haddock in a bechamel sauce , with an egg broken over and covered with more sauce and baked until the egg was soft cooked. They also made haddock with rice. in cassarole for breakfast. Can we get that scottish smoked. haddock in the US? or something similar? Thanks Rik for showing us how to make the sauce , the fish pie looks wonderfully delicious.❤

    • @tridsonline
      @tridsonline 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@prarieborn6458 Yes, by itself English mustard is hot, but it's like wasabi in that it's just a temporary sting. It's not a lingering burn like chili or pepper. But mixed in the sauce like this, you're unlikely to even notice the sting, it just gives a unique roundness of flavour. You can use dry mustard (without mixing it with water first), but it's better to invest 15 minutes or so to let the flavour develop first with water.
      But experiment with it in other ways too - try it on a ham and cheese sandwich, add a dribble of honey to compare. I bet you'll never turn to Dijon mustard again, except for variety maybe. 😉

      @@prarieborn6458 Smoked Haddock is wonderful, well worth the effort and expense. Actually, there was a scandal here in South Africa 🇿🇦 a few years ago, when it emerged that the Haddock we'd been devouring for years .. was fake! Turns out it was standard practice to just add colour and smoke flavour to local Hake, which is a lot cheaper, and call it "Haddock". For a while, it was replaced with the proper stuff (imported), which also has a much better texture .. but at a much higher price too!

    Made this up, tonight. It was exceptional! We chose smoked salmon, orange roughie, cod, and shrimp. I forgot to put in the eggs, but maybe we'll give them a whirl next time. Didn't have any fresh tarragon, but dried worked just fine.

    Good afternoon from near Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, USA
    I like how you reuse the same pots instead of getting out a clean one. I have never heard of fish pie. Thank you for showing us how to prepare it.
    Since moving to this area from New Jersey, fresh fish is a rarity. Well, unless you try your luck with a fishing rod with bait on the hook. Catfish, bass, and trout are what’s in the local lakes.

    Haven't had this in many years (the 70s?) and must admit I'd forgotten about this dish. Now I wonder why it fell to the wayside because I always enjoyed cooking and eating it. Glad you revived this dish and now I can't wait to make it. Will use fish, scallops and shrimp.

    Well Rik it must have been fortunate as I watched you making the pie, I went to the freezer and right at the top Cod, Haddock and king prawns, they are now defrosting and no one will guess what me and the wife are having for dinner tonight, I am Scottish so there will be slight changes, I think every City, Town, Village, and house has over the years made there own Fish Pie, however it is always delicious, otherwise it just doesn't make it through the years.

    A wonderful dish! Fish seems to be very cheap in the UK. Here in Bavaria, the ingredients shown are rather expensive. For tarragon on fish, I use an advertising slogan of the Triumph motorcycle manufacturers: "An impeccable choice!" It always comes to me with the "Matelote de poisson", which I appreciate very much. 👍👍
    P.S: Triumph was my absolute favorite motorcycle brand and I was lucky (and had the money) to buy some of them over the decades. Paul Newman can't be wrong!
