Iconic British Foods You Need To Try Before You Die
ฝัง

- In a global sense, British food has never quite enjoyed the sterling reputation of some other national cuisines. Black pudding and kippers have usually taken a back seat to pizza, paella and sushi.
But the U.K.'s reputation for unappetizing grub isn't particularly well deserved. While it may not be as fancy as French food or have the zing of Mexican fare, it is hearty, affordable and often very tasty. These unpretentious dishes are perfect to share with friends and family down at the corner pub. So forget the stereotypes about British cuisine. Here are some iconic British foods you must try before you die.

What's your favorite British food?
Bethlehem
Ducks
Fish and chips with the biggest fried piece of cod you can legally give me. And a mountain of fries....errr chips.
Sausage rolls.
Fish and real English Chips with malt vinegar and salt and ketchup.
Cornish pie, and steak and kidney pie.
A real English breakfast, without the blood pudding.
Yorkshire pudding, or popovers as we call them in the US. My whole family could eat them till they come out of our ears! 👂🏻 My father came from Yorkshire and he also liked kippers with his breakfast. We all passed on those!
FYI, cottage pie is made with beef, shepherds pie is made with Lamb
And it’s not “available in most pubs” 😂
@@alanx216
Then you aren’t going to the right pubs. If they don’t serve shepherd’s pie… move on.
@@just_passing_through it’s just what the voiceover says in the video 😂 In Britain, “most pubs” do not serve food. Yes, some pubs do and also do serve cottage/shepherds pie, but only some.
@@just_passing_through pubs never used to have food that was even fit for human consumption idk man
@@lucarobertson3294
Very true. But times have changed. Revenue from meals has become a major source of income for most pubs over the last couple of decades.
Be aware that if you travel 50 miles in the UK, Bread rolls have changed name, travel 100 miles, sandwiches have another name as well.
Shepards pie = lamb, Cottage Pie = beef
Bloody 'breadcakes' lmao... it's a cob, thank you very much!
i give a fuck why?
sounds delicious!
can I have an order of each preferably on different weeks?
I don't care about the vegetables too much, but a meat pie..... sorry, my appetite is welling.
@@nolanolivier6791 Do you want a scrap, mr Olivier ? Joking, r kid. Each region has their own interpretation on, not just what they're called, but also how they taste. As a tyke, we call'em teacakes....whooh, should add, a West Yorkshire tyke. Go 20 miles, one way or t'other, and they'll call 'em summat different. ..Nowt queerer than folk... I do'nt want to sound like you. long may it continue !!
@@nolanolivier6791 nah its a roll :), I did get into a debate at work with a yorkshire lass who calls them bread buns.
Most people that make fun of British food have either never tried it or saw someone on TH-cam try beans on toast and thought that's the only thing British people eat.
I grew up in Kansas and I've had them all. Of course, my Mum and my Gran both came from Hampshire. LOL!
😊😊😊
whereabouts? I'm from Southampton
Nice! I'm in Portsmouth
@@robhorror They were from Horndean, now just a few minutes up the A27 from Portsmouth.
@@robhorror My mum came from Pompey.
Never seen a beef Wellington in a pub, and it CERTAINLY isn’t a good way to use up leftovers of a Sunday dinner 😂
What else would you do with your leftover beef fillet lol.
@@Aspartame69 my point was you’d use fresh beef fillet for a beef Wellington, not beef fillet that is the leftovers of a Sunday dinner as you would overcook it once you’ve put it in pastry to and cooked it again to turn it into beef Wellington.
Regularly seen it in some of the fancier pubs. But yes, quite correct, you absolutely would not make it from leftovers.
A good old Sunday fry up
You can't make Beef Wellington from leftovers!!
lol
If you only roast the filet very rare, you might pull it off.
@@jacksutton5692 seriously, make something else. Waste of the ingredients, and it is definitely not Beef Wellington. Beef Wellington Boot, perhaps.🙂
@@TheKateO13 beef wellington the ocker way
Uk here.. i made it once I think it cost close to 25 quid, was lovely but not something I could afford to eat regularly ha.
Shepherds Pie & Cottage Pie are DIFFERENT! Cottage - Beef, Shepard’s - Lamb!
I kind of miss Bubble and Squeak in the list, which is actually made from left overs - unlike Beef Wellington.
omg i love bubble and squeak!
Errrrr nooooo it was Mondays dinner left over Sunday meat and everything else made bubble and shit. Childhood hate.
Omg I love bubble and squeak! I normally make it with the leftovers of a roast dinner also can't forget the Branston 😋
@@clocked2810no no no I sat at the table every monday for 5 hours sulking refusing to eat untill i got grandads egg sandwich.
I miss somerfields and woolworths.
Love B&S!
The controversy about how to pronounce scone is nothing compared to the controversy about whether you put the clotted cream or jam on first.
... or is it milk or the tea first in the cup!
Devon v Cornwall. Eternal rivals.
What kind of madman would put the cream on first?
The pronounciation thing is a national debate, the cream vs jam thing only involves 2 counties. Nobody else cares!
@@hongkongfueynz3071 I'm not from the south west but I'd put the cream on first as it feels a bit more like butter which I put on first on a sandwich and then jam on top.
My family was stationed over in Britain and we lived in a town called Brampton. I can honestly say the best fish I've ever had to this day came from this guy who had a small stand that served fish & chips and it was wrapped in newspaper.
I remember the days of fish and chips wrapped in news paper, then we joined the EU who banned using news paper. Fish and chips have never tasted the same since 😞.
@@PaulYoule my local chippy has paper with news paper printing on so it looks authentic 😂
@@frankiemazzei8882 I've been to a couple places in the US that do the same. Not real newspaper, but it looks the part and carries on the tradition.
Proper fish and chips is hard to beat. The best i had was maybe in dorset on a walking holiday
The classic Sunday Roast is by far my most favourite meal in the world (specifically roast beef) It doesn't require hardly any skill to make it although to master it, it will. It just needs time, patients and above all, love, lots of love 😁
@Jim Carner congrats 👍
I had the classic Sunday roast beef dinner during a long trip to the UK I took years ago. I ate at the Dog and Gun Pub in Keswick one rainy Sunday evening. It was glorious. A huge roaring fire greeted patrons as they walked in from a chilly rain. Long wooden tables were filled with regulars and visitors, so you wherever you could find a spot. Food was so fresh, tasty, hearty, and filling. Great atmosphere all around!
Shepherd's pie isn't the same thing as a cottage pie although they are similar. The main difference is that a shepherd's pie is always made with lamb. The clue is in the name.
American style Shepards pie is ground beef with gravy potatoes and vegetables. Not quite the British version but good.
@Carl Bowles
It might be delicious but if it's made with beef it's not Shepherds Pie, it's always Cottage pie regardless of where it's made & who makes it.
@@carlbowles1808 I'm from Australia and even ill say thats not a Sheppards pie, thats a cottage pie lmao
There are cow shepherds aren't there or are they drovers?
@@markiobook8639 A shepherd tends sheep, the equivalent for someone who tends cattle is a cowherd. A drover moves farm animals over long distances.
Chip butties are the best....I've not been to England in over 20 years, but I still enjoy a chip butty every now and again. My son LOVES them! :)
Love it when Americans make videos about the UK, They don't have a clue lol
"Aye, youve never been there but do me a favour, narrate this video about the UK and all this food youve never had!"
I would not eat a full english that only cost a fiver 🤮
Also, beef Wellington a pub favourite? 🤪
The narrator was clearly just reading a script, but the content seemed pretty accurate to me, a lifelong born and resident Brit.
Your staple dish is literally just fried fish and fries. You have no cuisine of your own.
@@mawlinzebra there is way more to English or British cuisine than fish and chips that's an ignorant thing to say.
Correct about the grubby greasy spoons My Aunt owned one didn't look like somewhere you'd wanna eat but was by popular reviews one of the best breakfasts around for "a fiver" and she retired happily from owning it for 34 years
100% agree.
Beef Wellington is not a great way to use up leftovers from a Sunday roast as you say....nothing in the recipe involves previously cooked food, poor research.
Ye, like you’ve got a whole £40/£50 fillet of raw beef to hand as a ‘leftover’.....
Very true. But she failed to mention cottage pie and shepherd's pie are dishes that traditionally use up the leftovers from Sunday roast.
She means to go with it (sides).
Still misguided though.
Boeuf en croute then.
Where's the crisp sandwich a staple in the UK.
Here in New Zealand I remember having marmite and chip (or crisps as you call them) sandwiches for lunch..... delicious!
University dorms.
Kippers are smoked herring fillets. Pickled herrings are a different thing altogether. Kippers are NOT pickled.
Pickled herrings are called Roll Mops, They are rolled up with onions and secured with a tooth pick. I love them.
Kippers are the whole small Herring, not the fillet.
i have no idea of what you guys are talking but sounds delicious
Finnan Haddie is smoked Haddock, just to muddy the waters further.
You can't beat proper 'chippy' fish and chips with plenty of salt and malt vinegar 😋😋😋
A dish brought over to this country by immigrant Russian Jews in the 19th century.
Onion vinegar from the pickled onions, and these should be served with the meal.
a dish from my country could easily beat that
Okg yeses it's so good
I didn't like malt vinegar when I was a kid but now it's integral for fish and chips
One of the best brekkies I've ever had was in a little hotel in Scotland, a pair of smoked Loch Fyne kippers. I opted for haggis on the side which came with an exquisite cracked pepper cream sauce. Heavenly.
Missed out items: Steak and Kidney Pie/Pudding, Lancashire Hot Pot, Sticky Toffee Pudding, Bakewell Tart, Ham, Egg and Chips, Spotted Dick, Apple Pie, Rhubarb Crumble, Manchester Tart, Queen of Puddings, Beef Stew and Dumplings, Bubble and Squeak, Welsh Rarebit, The Sandwich was invented in England, Cheddar Cheese was invented in England, Stilton Cheese was invented in England, infact England is the cheese capital of the world with over 700 different cheeses. Worcestershire Sauce is English. Christmas Pudding, Lobby, Sausage Roll, Syrup Sponge, Flapjack, Kedgeree, Beans on Toast
Steak & kidney pie is amazing. Luckily lamb kidneys are one of the few offal meats I can find where I live so I make it as often as I can. I make up enough filling to make one large family sized pie & 3 to 4 smaller individual ones & instead of beef steak I use kangaroo & I make them all using buttery, flaky puff pastry. So delicious. I can't believe more people don't eat offal meats, they're delicious & incredibly nutritious & not using everything possible is wasteful & disrespectful to the animal.
@@Lucifurion You should try making a traditional "Pudding" rather than a pie. I'm sure you can get hold of beef suet. It sounds like you're in Oz so I'm sure they sell it. A "Pudding" is on another level from a shortcrust or puff pastry pie. It has to be steamed though but it can be speeded up by making the filling first and steaming it with the cooked filling. A traditional "Steak and Kidney Pudding" would have all the ingredients uncooked ie the meat, kidneys, onions etc and steamed for a longer time. There's nothing like the taste and flavour of a "Pudding"!!!
You can also use sweet ingredients to make "Spotted Dick" or "Syrup Pudding" or "Jam Roly Poly" all which are Traditional English puddings and use beef suet pastry as their main ingredient and steamed in the same way. It's delicious!!!
Dont the good old ...the Sandwich...haha
@@alandillon968 Look again, I mentioned the Sandwich.
What about kidneys & bacon, liver & bacon, mussels,whelks,cockles, smoked haddock, cheese (& tomato) pie, corned beef, salmagundy etc etc?
I LOVE Marzipan! I can’t imagine anyone hating it!!
Me too. it is the taste of Christmas. after Jan 1st, you have to wait a whole year to have them again.
love me some marzipan, mr kipling battenberg is my go to
wife and i hate it.
I do happily sit on the couch and just eat marzipan
I have to admit I dislike it!
Lamb = Shepherds Pie, Beef = Cottage Pie
Been travelling south America for 3 years and damn I miss British food, chocolate, baked beans, full English, bangers and mash and Yorkshire tea like mad.
Yorkshire Tea is the proper thing, also Sainsbury's Red or Gold Label
If you want really good black pudding, come to Austria! And Marzipan is great. Marzipan covered with chocolate is a staple around Christmas in Austria. Also it is part of the famous Mozart-balls, whichever you try.
Shepherds Pie is NOT also known as Cottage Pie , Shepherds deal with sheep so it’s minced LAMB with onion gravy and shouldn’t have vegetables in, Cottage pie is beef with veg added
You should see what goes into a cottaging pie 😀
Is that the best you have?
I don't get the marzipan hate - it's delicious
I don't like almonds because they're too dry. So I'm amazed that almonds can be converted into something so jam-packed with flavor. I order chocolate covered marzipan sweets from a local catalog for every Christmas.
BRAVO
I love marzipan. My mum get me marzipan fruits every year for Xmas. They're always welcome.
Sorry all parts of the UK have there own regional recipe for Sausage and Black Scotland is quite renowned for its black pudding and Lorne sausage it makes an outstanding sandwich. In Scotland they eat potato scones with their breakfast also haggis. Also jam roly-poly has never been made with a sponge cake mix that would make it a Swiss roll. The best kipper you can get in my opinion are from the north of England Craster kippers from Northumberland are world-renowned. Yorkshire puddings extremely easy to make. It is equal quantities of milk, egg, pinch of salt and plain flour. You have got to have extremely hot fat beef dripping or goose fat is outstanding and a hot oven. Once the Yorkshire puddings are in the oven please dont open the oven door they will sink faster than your hopes and dreams.
Kippers....Arbroath smokies.
@@jixuscrixus1967 They are great I must admit I forgot all about them. .
@Sarah Rose It all depends on where you buy it from. A good butchers black pudding is amazing. I do agree some black pudding is horrible.
As a native of the England, this video is very amusing.
Isn’t it just? Lol
I just love these satirical videos!
The voiceover sounds like a robot 🤷🏼♀️
Be fair... it's only about 80% wrong!
Joseph , this mash channel is just smug bullshit . Full English breakfast , I'd kill to try a Full on English Breakfast !! And this girl taking about it as it's just a friggin Egg McMuffin
P.S. , I'm in El Paso Texas , and have looked all over within a hours drive just to have something close .
What Mash's take on a proper English breakfast is disrespectful , and i believe never actually looked at the meal !!!
I’m Brazilian ( came foody state of Minas Gerais) living in England, and the only thing I didn’t like was the eels, I love everything, I don’t know why people say Uk doesn’t have good food?
Nice one Alex, although try the hot stewed eels and not the jellied ones maybe?
I love food in Brazil. I ate like 5 times in one day just to eat as much as I could from different places. I especially like the way you often have restaurants that allow you to fill your plate and then weigh it on a scale to pay :)
You guys eat sopa do macaco. Of course you'll find British food edible 😂
because u need to be a good cook to make most english food lots of ppl just aint good cooks
Smoked eel is good too.
I love bangers and mash, shepherd's pie, and fish and chips.
All great, and you just can't get them made right in the U.S.
Bangers and mash, very nice, as long as they are decent bangers and not rubbish ones, so meaty ones, not full of breadcrumbs.
Onion gravy is normally used for bangers and mash, but I do not like onion gravy, so normal beef gravy or Tomato ketchup for me.
@@ryanchant6861 Yeah, That is the problem with using phones to post, i will edit :)
We love sausages and mash for dinner!!
British savoury meals are some of World’s the most blandest, thus ATROCIOUS at best. Apparently the most popular British savoury meal is Fish & Chips, how can this be considering that straight out of the deep-fryer Fish & Chips taste of nothing but cooking oil?. It is utterly shocking how utterly CRAP British savoury meals taste, considering that the British had the privilege of having spent 200 years in India. Even the most basic Indian meal tastes infinitely superior to anything British. Lastly even dogs raised by Indians have a superior taste in food than vast majority of white people.
Brithish cuisine is Awesome! So underrated.. Give me a Good "Bubble and Squeek" Anytime!
You can’t even spell British.
@@AdistuffRBX Leave them alone. They got god's own food, Bubble and Squeak, almost right! 😉
@earlymusicus Oh No, No, No! Way too fishy for me! give me the good B&S any day! hahahaha. my mum loved kippers and kedgeree, or a sort of welsh version anyway! interestingly isn't it yet another dish from India originally?
That was also forgotten, read my comment
I will guess you come from the land of bland. I always lost weight on visits to UK simply due to the terrible food.
The Brits hands down have the best breakfasts on the planet. Germany is a close second with lots of jams…cheeses…breads…cold cuts and musceli cereal with yogurt. Yummy!
God bless ya ---- but I'll take a big ol mega yank breakfast any day.
Toast / jam -- pancake n maple syrup
breakfast sausage n bacon
hash browns or diced fried potatoes with pepper n onion
eggs of course - either an omelet ( cheese, peppers, shrooms, onion, tomato ), over easy on the pancakes or scrambled
fruit / melon
juice, water, coffee
Sorry -- baked beans, sliced tomato, blood pudding and those very strange appearing sausages just don't make a breakfast appealing.
baked beans are for cook outs n hot dogs - I'd prefer sliced peaches over tomato myself - blood pudding sounds gaggable.
Wow it's nice to disagree with someone in a silly way and not be called Ra --- ace --- its.
Japan and France are good too. British may win. German is okay. Austrian is a similar deal but better.
@@bubblebreak4160 Almost forgot. You’re right about France. Their breads alone have no equal. Not so sure about Japan. I don’t recall any discernible difference between their breakfast and lunch. Enjoyable but nothing like the others.
@TheEnglishRabbit Yup! Soaks up all that booze!
@@WNYXeb777 Strange appearing sausages lmao, they're real sausages with proper meat. I would take a full English over the American equivalent any day.
The way she said bangers and mash😂
Cottage pie is made with minced beef. Shepherd's pie with minced lamb.
Traditionally it was lambs tails and the mash is there because they couldn't get all the wool off the tail
Now I'm hungry! :D
As an Austrian Anglophile I regularly make Cottage Pie and Leek & Bacon Pie. Proper pork pies are quite hard to make so I'd rather enjoy them in situ when I'm in the UK. Another staple I'd mention is Coronation Chicken - a very popular sandwich filling or served on its own with leafy salad.
Give a Bedfordshire clanger a go its like a sausage roll and a cornish pasty had a baby. Also apple turnover will send you to another dimension, pickled eggs in a salad can really elevate it or just sit with a jar and scran them all 😂
Shepherds pie is lamb
Cottage pie is beef
In Canada Shepherds pie is made mostly with beef
While I know it’s not correct, in the US I grew up with shepherds pie… Made with hamburger. Anyway, love it whether it’s shepherds pie or cottage pie
@@turboking7104 And they are wrong
@@georgecrompton8663 It's like putting a pork frankfurter in a bun and calling it a "hamburger," ain't it?
Black pudding!!!!!!
Yummy 😋
so many more favourites to try like bakewell tart, sausage rolls, summer pudding, steam pudding and many many more!!!
Was enjoying it up to the point that Cottage and Shepards Pie were considered the the same.
Americans, do you ever get to taste lamb?
I feel onion gravy should have been mentioned with the sausage and mash
And toad in a hole.
Two points i thought Erbs was pronounced with a Herbs ,and a true Victoria sponge does not have cream in it just good quality Raspberry Jam.
I love this channel. The recipes are tasty and everyone is friendly, both in the videos and in real life.
We made spaghetti with alfredo sauce and it was wonderful. Even grandma held on for a few more days to enjoy it. love you grandma, where ever you are.

OMG! I never knew why the bacon was so good when I was there. I was there quite a long time ago, but remember the bacon being very tasty on those sandwiches. I loved it. I didn’t realize that it had come from a different part of the pig. Wish we would do that in the states. Yum, Yum
nice an American who likes English bacon
Canadian bacon is very similar.
I wished they sold English bacon in the states.
I wish America was more like the uk with food. Yorkshire puddings look like a serious game changer and it's just fry bread with gravy
@@hearttoheart4me they do, just look for Canadian bacon. That's what y'all call it there
I don't think I've ever seen anyone eat salad with a pork pie. Stereotypically, the sort of person that eats pork pies isn't the sort of person that eats salad.
You're 100% right in general, but I think they're talking about the nice homemade pork pies that you get in fancier pubs and stuff. Same thing with the Scotch Eggs.
Rubbish. Pork pies and salads are on every buffet table
That’s complete rubbish and not true at all
I eat a pork pie with brown sauce. That’s it. I go eat salads too tho…
Pork pie only served with a dollop of heinze brown sauce to dip with not steak sauce not heinze 57 but brown sauce
The Knickerbocker Glory contained ice cream, thick cream, fruit and meringue. The layer are alternated in that order and is drizzled on top with a raspberry coulis - and Never contains Wafers!

If you believe in reincarnation, you may have the chance to do both. 😉
@ Federic R. Lovely comment - amused me greatly. Actually, once you find enough nerve to try some, you may find them good. On the other hand, the very best eel I ever tasted was served in a bright green sauce in a very ' low end ' bar/bistro in Ostend about 65 years ago.
I Miss all that food from my home, surprised they didn't mention sausage rolls. There's nothing like a bacon sarnie, if you ask for something that simple in the states, they just don't understand the concept.
It's not "also known" as a shepherd's pie. A shepherd's pie is made with lamb or mutton, a cottage pie with beef. :-)
Hurrki ajabahs jaha
Cottage pie and shepherd’s pie are different cottage pie is made with beef mincemeat
And shepherds pie is made with lamb mincemeat
you tell 'em !
Lancashire Hotpot . Best end of ( lamb ) neck with slices of Bury black pudding on top .!
Not mincemeat - that is quite different, a concoction of dried fruit, suet and brandy! Mince, or minced meat, is what is used in cottage pie and shepherd's pie.
" mincemeat" means something else in British vernacular, a sweet dried fruit pastry filling. Minced - meat is called " mince".
@@snowflakemelter1172 and "mince" or "minced" means "ground" in America.
UK: Minced lamb/beef. US: Ground lamb/beef.

Affordable. The cheapest thing you could buy in a fish & chips shop.
Made with pigs brains that's what gives it the sweet flavour 😉

Basically a tube of cat food grade meat waste. Those were the days when we never questioned what was in our food. 😲
@@snowflakemelter1172 The cheapest thing you could buy at a fish n chips shop. Still, filling and didn't taste too bad. Ate lots of them in the '80s.
Well researched ! you seem to have covered British food fairly here.
Love
All of these. I love a chip butty. Love a fry up, a korma, a shepherds pie, a cottage pie, omg jam roll poly, can’t believe I forgot that. Similar to treacle sponge and custard. Can’t beat a ploughmans and a pork pie, oh and a scotch egg.. and my mums roast is the best. Bloody love my home. And even though I live in another country, all those meals are on my menus throughout the year.
Half off the meals u said there I don't even no what it is lol maybe cuz I'm Irish lol
even the jellied eels?
Thanks for this. British food is definitely not all bad!
Try making toad in the hole at home.... its delicious and super easy, you just to have decent sausages.
I'm a Londoner living in the USA and it is nigh on impossible to find ANYTHING even remotely resembling British pork sausages. I so dearly miss Lincolnshire sausages.

Can't believe Banoffee pie wasn't on this list. Best British desert hands down!
Big respect for saying best full English found in a grubby cafe. Spot on
Can’t beat a grubby cafe! There’s a great one on Chapel Market in Islington.
Mate, Game Pie! Are you having a laugh 🤣🤣🤣 I mean I'm Scouse so that may be why but I have never had Game Pie
I'm in Norfolk - I've had game pie, but never heard of scouse (the stew)
Some of the dishes on this are universal across the UK, some of them are regional. (Stargazy pie is Cornwall/Devon)
Everyone knows the term 'cheese ploughman's' was invented in 1957 by the British Cheese Bureau to promote, er, cheese. I spent much of my childhood in the 1970s on a farm in Herefordshire helping out the farmer (ie: probably getting on his nerves). If his lunch had consisted of a bit of cheese, an apple and a slice of bread, he'd probably have wasted away within a month. Cheese ploughman's: nice pub lunch. Romantic history? I don't think so.
Bakewell tart, Eccles cakes, lemon curd, cauliflower cheese, Branson pickle, Dundee cake
@ Colleen Orrick. You are very cruel and I'm drooling.
Ex-pat now New Yorker, I often ask the natives to tell me their typical representative American food, 'hey what's classical American food?" ... for the most part they'd reveal a puzzled look and after a very pregnant pause mutter something about Burgers, Pizza or BBQ - LOL!
I find it funny, but mostly because of your use of ex-pat. Too ashamed to say that you're an immigrant?
Why is this so weird to you? America is a country of immigrants. Whatever migrants that live here their food is incorporated into the food culture. Soul Food is strictly American if you need a start in American Cuisine.
I just love these satirical videos!
Cottage pie is not also knows as Shepherds pie. The two are different dishes. Cottage pie is made with beef, shepherds pie is made with lamb
Yes but it’s basically the same dish but with a different meat used, beef vs lamb.
@@IslenoGutierrez A hamburger and a hotdog are just some processed meat in some bread, but you wouldn't call those the same thing.
@@Beedo_Sookcool But they are not the exact same thing, one is long and one is wide. One is made with a sausage and one is made with a beef patty. It’s not the same thing. Cottage and shepherds pies are the exact same thing but made with a different meat.
@@IslenoGutierrez You can make pies in any shape, too. My point still stands: you can't change the main ingredient and call it the same name, especially if there's already a dish by another name with those exact ingredients.
@@Beedo_Sookcool C’mon don’t be ignorant, both cottage and Shepard’s pies are the exact same shape. It’s literally the same dish both with a different meat.
Wow, amazing food it look so yummy
I love the watercress sandwiches! I wish I could visit again !
I’m surprised that you didn’t mention the fact that your biscuits are exactly the same as our plain scones! Star Gazey pie…YUK 🤮 Loved the rest of your video.
Yeah I think I'm traumautized by that pie.😁
Cottage pie is made with beef mince whereas Shepherds pie is made with minced lamb (or mutton) otherwise pretty much identical.
"Beef mince" and minced lamb, but not minced beef or lamb mince. Interesting.
Never have I seen a pub serving Beef Wellington, and I've been to a few in my time.
My thought too. When I lived there most pubs might have just crisps if they had food. The ones that did serve food usually had meat pies, sandwiches, or maybe a ploughman’s lunch. Of course everything would have a side of beans. American style bacon was available too, but was called streaky bacon. The English bacon was middle or back bacon depending on the cut you chose. I wish restaurants in the US would do an English roast dinner. Those giant Yorkshire puddings with roast potatos and a beef or lamb roast.
My local pub did a Beef Wellington, was a bit of an old style village pub though.
It's too expensive for the average pub menu with fillet beef
its quite common in country pubs in and around the west midlands
Chicken tikka masala is as British as the Kohinoor Diamond!
Ploughman's lunch was an invention of the Milk Marketing Board, nothing to do with tradition. Sorry if anyone else has already pointed this out.🙂
There are still extensive evidence to show that the foods which consistute a Ploughmans luncheon were eaten in the same manner as early as the 1300s.
A pretty good effort, and you've covered most of the popular foods, although I'm surprised you didn't include sausage rolls. I live quite close to Liverpool, and have never heard of the scouse dish, nor have I heard of Stargazy pie. If you're going to include some of the more local specialities, then perhaps you should have included Bakewell Pudding or Tart (far more common than Eton Mess), Eccles Cakes and Lancashire Hotpot, all of which are pretty common throughout Britain.
Scouse is very regional I would say, I’m from the wirral but from a scouse family and we have it regularly, as do most scouse families.
Travel just outside the city and they have pretty much the same dish but called different names, like “Lobby”
If you go to Norway it’s called “Lobscouse”
My ex & our family were in Harrogate & Welbourn for 4 years. I truly miss the delicious Sausage Rolls! The American sausage just doesn’t compare. 🥺😋🥺
I believe that Stargazey Pie was originally dreamed up by a chef in a pub in the small fishing village of Mousehole, Cornwall. It is now served in a few local pubs/restaurants, but is unknown outside that area.
@@mikeybyrne5806 It's also known as 'lobscouse' in Wales
I like this video. Agree with most of the dishes except game pies and beef Wellington .
I love bangers and mash, it’s so delicious! 😋
It's just sausages and mashed spuds to me
Here in Hawaii, Spam & egg sandwiches are a low price standard breakfast. I just ate one. Jelly roll type thing are widely served by Filipino bakeries here. Mazapan is a Spanish candy too.
@Jim Carner I fry the Spam lightly in olive oil. Most local people use soy sauce, or Teriyaki sauce, a sweetened soy sauce. The eggs go over hard in sandwiches & tostadas ( corn tortilla enclosure) fried with cheddar cheese). Americans often eat Mexican food with cheddar, an English cheese. Monterey Jack, or queso blanco, white cheese is usually used by Mexicans themselves.
Iam glad they didnt say hash browns in the full english
Fried spuds.
I will happily swap out those revolting baked beans for some hash browns, any day.
I'm of Cornish ancestry (5th generation!) and I love pasties! I've been to England/Ireland & Scotland - so I've grown to love cottage pie, full English (Irish or Scottish) breakfasts - including black pudding (yum yum 😋), bangers & mash, mushy peas, fish & chips, scones,.... I also cook many of these items at home!
Ain't you special!
I found the scottish square sausages most amusing, I tried to take the piss out of our scot bloke in work about it and he merely stated that the English were stupid for inventing round ones that roll about on the plate. Touchet Scotsman Touchet.
@Jim Carner thankyou Jim, everyday is a school day.
Wow this all looks amazing tbh
My favorite British foods are: Cottage Pie, Beef Wellington & Shepherd's Pie. 🇬🇧 🇬🇧
Gordon's favorite meal is alright with me in the Wellington, I'll take a Sheppard's Pie as well. We adopted Pasties in Northern Michigan, originally in the days of Copper Mining...they are the definition of hearty.
Not just Uppers adopted them... I'm from a mining town out West, and my mom made pasties weekly! Just had an Albies beef pasty yesterday. It's nice living in Michigan, where they're available in stores. I'm too lazy to make them myself. :-)
@@d.rodrickeamon6133 iirc cornish pasties were invented specifically for miners which is why you have the htick crust it was so miners could grab them eat and then throway the contaminated crust
@@revanruler6404 When you consider they were mining lead - you'd better believe it!
Everything looks good, I gotta get some recipes..hahaha..now I have the muchies...
Nice Work Keep it up 👍
Love how the American lady was coming out with British sayings like greasy spoon and fiver and they call it a bacon butty up north well researched on your lingo 😉
Greasy spoon and fiver are very common sayings in the U.S.
I was disappointed in the "grubby" greasy spoons remark.
@@marshallbrannon8855 no they are not😂
@@akatskie3706 yes they are, I heard those terms all the time growing up.
Born and raised in Detroit. A greasy spoon , a fiver, a tenner are common. A buddy ? No.
3:50 French fries does not translate to thick cut chips in america, thick cut chips are just thick cut chips
We call them steak fries.
Thank u for this video I am proud to be from the UK
About time as a English man I always watch these videos about company's and franchises I can't try but all of this I can haha
I love British food. Bacon sandwich is great at any time of day. Bangers and mash will fill you up.
The voice dubbing rubs me the wrong way.
Right? I could only make it 3 1/2 minutes :-/
I like how a video about British foods is posted by a channel named "Mashed".
I've always liked fish heads in my pie. Yum!
I'm South African English and I have never left Africa. I had most of these foods for lunches and supper growing up.
Why do you not want to leave?
@@victormalyar9200 I can't afford to
Why isn't a jam sandwich, hot drinks, meat and pot cheese and onion and steak pie on this list where is apple pie and sausage barms not on this list and where is a steaks and kidney pudding
@Bob Bobbin your ether a Yorkshire man and your only famous for your tea or never been to the UK before
@Bob Bobbin Yorkshire is shite anyway famous for the motorway out of there
You missed Lancashire hotpot...
That's delicious
They may all have disappeared down the same way as your grasp of punctuation.
fantastic and very nice
Toad in the hole and trifle are my favourites or a version of toad is to swap the sausage for English back bacon. That with curried baked beans and tomato ketchup on the top is bliss
A pitty you missed the sausage roll...
But thank you
I agree. Sausage rolls need to be on the list.
I want a full English right now.
So do I, minus the tomatoes.
Great video,
I love this video
Any recipes you have included in UK foods which contain flavourings, will be herbs , with an "h" and not "erbs" the way many US residents pronounce it.
Herb is a mans name, erb is a flavoring.
it's a french word and the h is silent so the american pronounce it the right way lol
@D Anemon
In England & Australia it's an English word & pronounced "herb". If it's a French word & Americans pronounce it right why can't they pronounce "tourniquet" correctly?
Great video, about time British food not given such a bad rap. The late great chef Gary Rhodes championed it, as does genius Marco Pierre White and many other chefs. All good.
Is he dead? Bloody hell I missed that
Northern European food in general gets a bad rep. Which is a pity, because the Dutch, Danish, Germans and Scandinavians as well as the British all have some delicious stuff on the menu if you know what to look for.
That actually looks good.
