Anna, JT, If you try beans on toast, you need to use British baked beans: they're baked, steamed or stewed haricot beans in a tomato sauce - much more appetizing and less sweet than US baked beans which are usually navy beans, in a sauce often containing honey or molasses. To enhance the flavour of beans on toast, try adding a little Worcestershire sauce to the beans while heating them, or even mixing in a dollop of (British) Brown sauce. Finishing off with grated cheese or even a slice of cheese after the toast is topped with beans (and then returning the plate to the grill to melt the cheese,) really enhances the flavour. Not a cordon bleu dish by a long way, but excellent as quick and wholesome comfort food.
He said he was going to try some of these foods the last time he reacted to this video. There were over 1,000 comments, many similar to yours telling him how to make stuff. He never tried any of it.
@@wireframebox - Specifically British made Heinz Baked Beans... (Heinz Baked Beans made in America are NOT the same recipe). Also, having bought & cooked Heinz beans 'on toast' a few times in the US, I can confirm the taste is very different!. Plus, you can't even get sliced bread (similar to the UK), to toast... Funny thing is that you CAN order Heinz Baked Beans, made in the UK, which are imported to the US for ex-pats!
Black pudding is absolutely lush! Its got herbs and spices in it and is one of those foods that taste better than their origins suggest. Toad in the hole is literally just sausages placed in a casserole dish, which is then given a small layer of oil followed by what is basically waffle batter around it. Think like waffles and bacon, thats the kind of thing it is
I’d have to disagree on the black pudding, Anna’s face was mine when I tried it and I think pancake batter is a better comparison than waffle batter, neither sweet nor savoury.
If you have heard of "Yorkshire Pudding", then you know what the non-sausage part of "Toad in the Hole" is. It is just Yorkshire pudding batter, with sausages in it, which is then baked. It's very nice, especially served with baked beans! Yorkshire pudding batter is easily made (look for recipes online)... so you should be able to make your own Toad in the Hole.
I know the ingredients of black pudding sound super weird, and a lot off folk get turned of by the sound of whats in it... I promise you, if you ever get the chance to eat it you would be mad not to try it. It's absolutely amazing! It has close relatives in other countries, sometimes known as blood pudding, obvious reasons. It's origins go wayyyy back to medieval times and it was considered a delicacy. It was originally made from the blood of enemies and served to the victorious King/leader. Today, its just from pigs though... darn health and safety gone mad I guess 😂
Sadly you can good brands bad brands The Best Were the Scots ones sadly even they have gone down hill The Irish ones are now the best yet again not as Good ss they were Very Sad
Toad in the Hole is delicious as long as you have quality sausages. The mixture around them is the same as you would make for pancakes. Not the stodgy US ones but the thinner French style ones. If you put the chilled batter mix into a very hot oven it rises deliciously around the sausages. 🇬🇧👍
The batter is the same as a Yorkshire Pudding mix, not a pancake mix; I know that I'm being pedantic, as both batters are made from flour, eggs and milk, but it is the final ingredient: salt or sugar, which differentiates the two batters. No one wants a sweet batter around a good quality sausage.
@@stavperides2060 I only heard a year or so ago (I'm in my thirties) that people put sugar in pancake mix... Why! When your going to smother it in syrup, honey or sugar anyway xd
Black pudding is one of the oldest dishes you can get. Even the ancient Spartans ate it. In Germany we have various blood sausages/puddings, e.g. Gruetzwurst, we eat with boiled potatoes and Sauerkraut or on rye bread. It's delicious and very sustainable, because it is part of the concept "from snout to tail". You can't take an animals life and only eat filet and schnitzel.
We also have different types but the name doesn't change it's regional, and i'm down with using every part of the animal just like our ancestors had to.
Black pudding is fantastic and an essential part of a full English . The older generation used to eat it on its own , steamed with English mustard and/or vinegar. You can get it in USA it sometimes called blood sausage and can be produced in links. If you really wanna be grossed out check out how tripe is made and stargazey pie (not even I would try that one).
Don’t knock haggis till you’ve tried it, it’s delicious tastes a bit like spicy mince or as the video said spicy meatloaf. Don’t worry about not trying deep fried mars bar yet I’m from Scotland and I’ve never and probably will never try it 🤣🤣🤣 love the channel keep the videos coming 👍👍
The oatmeal helps to bind all the ingredients together in a black pudding. It has quite a lot of seasoning in as well and yes, it's one of the foods not allowed in the States. You guys don't know what you're missing - it's lovely (and iron-rich from the blood). Suet is little bits of caul fat and used in lots of different foods - the (non-veggie/vegan version of) mincemeat of mince pies, suet puddings and dumplings among them. Toad in the Hole is basically sausages baked in Yorkshire pudding batter. It's lovely! Steak and kidney pie is lovely too and you can also get steak and kidney pudding that's made with a suet pastry and the whole lot is boiled instead of being baked like the pie. Spotted Dick - gotta have that one with custard! It's a sweet dessert. Haggis is fab too. It's eaten widely on Burns Night with neeps and tatties (turnips and potatoes). Beans on toast is a brillliantly multi-purpose snack meal - you can eat it for any meal and it's great! Heinz Beans are the best. Toast and butter two slices of bread, warm the beans up in a pan on the cooker or in a bowl in the microwave - don't boil them though! When they are heated up, all you do is pour them over the buttered toast. You can have unbuttered toast if you prefer, some people don't like butter.
Black pudding is amazing, and it actually can be considered a superfood. The blood it's made with means that it's very high in iron, has a good protein content and limits the carbs. While the idea of it turns a lot of people away, it is, in fact, delicious. Especially with a poached egg
It’s Amazing, it’s not amazing. it’s all a matter of opinion kids. Grow up and learn to have rational discussions instead of devolving into yes no yes no childish bickering.
Basically Toad in the hole is a Sausage in a bath of giant Yorkshire pudding mix. Yorkshire pudding is basically the same mixture as a UK pancake (not similar to american pancakes). But rather than fried in a shallow pan, its cooked in the oven and allowed to overflow the sides of the container and they grow absolutely massive. (Usually misshapen, which adds to the charm)
Black pudding is delicious 😋 haggis is pretty good as well. Beans on toast is just an easy meal when you want something quick. We used to eat it all the time as kids.
You need to try the British beans for beans on toast. Apparently US beans are a lot sweeter than ours here in the UK. So you won’t get the full experience. Beans on toast is something you can have for literally every meal. Super quick and super satisfying. Much love from Manchester 🏴 Edit: meant to say, my personal favourite are Heinz baked beans. Branston beans are supposed to be really good too but I’m a Heinz woman myself and haven’t tried other brands.
I went for some cheap Sainsbury's beans and when I had Heinz again realised they are not the best! Haha. Sainsbury's are really nice to me. Beans on marmite on toast for the win!
@@craig5066 ok so it’s been a few days since I wrote my original comment, and in that time I went out and bought some Branston baked beans to give them a try. I’ve just eaten them now and OMG, they’re so much better than Heinz. Anna, JT, if you’re gonna do beans on toast, then I highly recommend Branston baked beans. Since trying them after writing my initial post, I personally think they’re the superior of the 2 brands 😊
Anna & JT. I'm not sure you'd get the real 'Beans on Toast' experience over there as, even with a tin of UK beans, your butter and bread are not like ours. Your bread has 6 times more sugar than UK bread and your butter is made slightly differently (Typically churned longer than American butter, European butter has between 82 and 85 percent butterfat. It also has a richer taste, softer texture, and is brighter yellow in colour than its American counterpart.). Given those items are different, you'd need to find unsweetened bread (if that's a thing in the US) to make a difference.
In Germany we have something like black pudding as well, we call it Blutwurst. Also, I tried Haggis before, it´s honestly nice just tastes like well-spiced meatloaf. But I needed some convincing to try it.
I've eaten all of those foods in Australia and fruit mince pies have always been sold here at Xmas time. We also ate tripe, liver and sheep's brains! Mum used to fry up black pudding in the 1970s which tasted okay until someone told us kids that it was made from coagulated blood, lol. I tried haggis at a church youth group once and scotch eggs were a normal food for us back then. Beans on toast has always been a favourite in my house.
People eat sheeps brains more often than they realise. You know that beef pie you love ? You don't actually think that's ALL beef do you ? Nope. they VAST majority of it is sheeps brains. How do I know ? I'm a trucker who delivers food. I saw them unloading a frozen load one morning and asked them what they heck was in those stretched wrapped stillages. (looked like big chunks of frozen bubble gum) He said "You don't wanna know" which is like saying "Don't press the button" ! That's when he told me about them.
It amazes me that people who have no problem eating an animal's flesh are disgusted by eating any other part of it. People used to find wasting food disgusting when they had to hunt for it themselves and they would think the toxic processed rubbish called food today that people don't bat an eyelid at eating is disgusting. They would be the ones who are correct.
As a Brit myself, I've had them all except the deep fried Mars bar and they're all amazing. I do like a Mars bar and I like battered deep fried stuff but these are a culinary crime. Toad in the hole is a very easy recipe to make and you would have no trouble finding a recipe for it. It's good because you can use your favourite sausages, then you're all but certain to love it. It's fairly traditional to have onion gravy with it, which there are a load of recipes for.
Black pudding is one of the best things that ever existed. If you like savoury things you would probably enjoy it. You don't really taste the oatmeal, it's more of a texture but obviously makes it even more nutritious.
Black Pudding is absolutely lush! If you're having a fry up (unhealthy anyway) you gotta go all out and have the Black Pudding fried in the juices left over from the sausages!
toad in the hole is just and flower egg and milk mixed to a batter then pored in to a hot deep baking tray with oil then placed sausages in then put in the oven ... toads in blankis in the hole is the same with the sagauage wrapped in bacon its my fav meal ever
Everything in this list is absolutely delicious! If you can get past the name/ingredients list for some of these and just focus on the taste, they're really, REALLY good!
My favourite of all time is steak and kidney pie. Home made is best. They probably can't get kidneys in America. But offal is highly nutritious and adds real depth of flavour.
Black pudding (normally called blood pudding in the USA) isn't banned in America, you're thinking of haggis because that contains sheeps lungs in it. My brother in law used to work for a local butcher and his preferred way of making the black pudding was to stir the deep bucket of blood with his arm so he could make sure the mix was the right consistency.
I love haggis. When I was a child it wasn't widely available outside Scotland. I do miss old-fashioned black pudding a lot. It used to be a lot more velvety in texture but I think it disappeared after small local rural abbatoirs (often attached to a butcher's shop) stopped being the norm. Commercial black pudding apparently now has to be made with pasteurised dried blood. The nearest thing I've had in the last 25 years to old-fashioned black pudding is Boudin Noir, the French version which is served with mashed potato and stewed apple (not too sweet). It has that lovely velvety texture.
Don't they have their own version without sheep lung, and it not just as of the lungs but as they can't confirm if they cleaned them enough without like stomach contain I thought going in it
@@janieburr362 It's called "Creme Anglais" mainly in posher restaurants in the north-east US. Elsewhere, the nearest thing is thicker and eaten as a cold pudding, a bit like Dutch, Vanilla flavoured Vla.
Black pudding is (as JT would say) fire! A lot of people are put off by the mention of congealed pigs blood but it’s honestly delicious. Haggis is also amazing. Great boiled as it was intended but also amazing sliced and shallow fried, and put in a roll with a runny fried egg.
I think the inclusion of the word "congealed" didn't really help selling it. I love the stuff, but even my nose wrinkled at the description in the video.
I once made a toad-in-the-hole with pigs-in-blankets in place of regular sausages. It was sooooooooo good but I understand the name may be confusing 😂 Also the 'gravy' on the spotted dick was custard which if you haven't tried it is a classic British sauce for sweet food (puddings = desserts, NOT puddings = steamed pies/blood sausage) and it's made with egg yolks, cream/milk, sugar and vanilla. If you haven't watched it yet you should look up 'Learn English with Ricky Gervais' - you two being confused at the names of things in this reminded me of that video.
Toad in the hole is straight up delicious. Set oven to 400f (200c). Part cook 8 pork sausages in a large pyrex dish using a tablespoon of oil. Mix 105g of plain flour with 3 large eggs and 150ml of milk - whisk until smooth, season with salt and pepper. Set in fridge for about 20mins. Once the sausages have been part cooked for about 10mins take out and pour the batter. Place back in the oven for 20-25mins until the batter has risen. Serve with mash potatoes and gravy and vegetables of your choosing (peas or fine green beans work well) - enjoy.
2:04 scotch eggs are gorgeous😋 2:44 "According to Culinary Delights of Yorkshire, they originated in Whitby, Yorkshire, England, in the 19th century, and were originally covered in fish paste rather than sausage meat. They were supposedly named after William J. Scott & Sons, a well-known eatery which sold them." 5:03 "Blood sausage first arrived in the UK via European monks. They called it 'blutwurst' which means blood sausage. As mentioned, it could be the oldest sausage around. It is referenced in 800 BC and the oldest detailed recipe is from the Romans around the 4th Century." 9:11 sausages' in Yorkshire pudding (gravy)
Yorkshirians will claim anything as theirs, just to appear more English than any other English to keep that God's County BS chip on their shoulders, just like their inherent levels of racism to rival Essex's..
i'm not sure they know what yorkshire pudding is. They seemed confused in the video and why wouldn't you think it tasted good, even though the video explained kinda how it was made.
Brilliant reviews from both your channels. Just to tie in with your football chants review, I support Sheffield united FC, and our main song is called the Greasy Chip Butty, the chip / fries sandwich at the end of your review. Its sang to the tune of Annie's song by John Denver. And tells of the unhealthy pleasures like Beer, smoking and greasy food and of course a night out in Sheffield. It's almost a battle cry to rally the supporters and players alike.
JT you make me laugh we don't eat scotch eggs with scotch 😆 everything you've viewed is delicious 😋 You have to try them if you both ever visit the UK. Black pudding is 👌
Y'all were more confused than a blind guy at a silent movie! Hehe! I enjoyed this, our food seems so weird to you, yet your food kind of resonates here in variation? Weird, but we're all one wonderful world! Love from Derby, England! Xx
Definitely try beans on toast guys, a lot of the other foods are horrible, even as a Brit I agree 😄 and maybe if you can, try a full English breakfast or a shepherds pie. Love from London! 👍❤
you sure you are a brit? .... come on behave British is a culture if you not eating British food indulging in your own culture call yourself a corrupted Englishman.
The ingredients for black puddings do vary as you go to different places around the country but mainly they consist of whatever grain is readily available, in Scotland this is usually pinhead oats which are finely milled whereas in Yorkshire and Lancashire and down into the midlands we are more likely to use barley or more specifically pearled barley which is barley which has been rubbed and polished to remove the husk from the barley grains. Further south the preference is for a mixed grain including wheat and barley which again is pearled. Unless you’re killing your pig at home, it is very unlikely that you will have the blood in it’s natural state as this is a result of Government interference and most pudding makers nowadays use an imported dried blood from Holland which is easily rehydrated and works really well. The third ingredient in most puddings is fresh white flare fat diced to suit the texture that is needed, then quickly blanched in boiling water and added to the mixture. Finally the pudding maker will add a time honoured blend of assorted mixed dried herbs and spices and it all is throughly mixed together, then poured or piped into throughly cleaned natural sausage casings and tied into individual link’s which are then then lowered into large pans of hot water which is just off the boil. After being cooked in this manner the puddings are checked and sometimes pricked with a pin to relieve any pressure and then the now grey looking puddings are hung up to dry and take on the more appetising black colour, once they are set up they can now be hung up on display for sale to be taken home and sliced and fried to join with other ingredients for a classic English breakfast or maybe to join with fried scallops for a tasty supper dish.
Black pudding and white pudding are delicious as is a nicely seasoned haggis. 😋🏴 Edit - 9:32 I know exactly what JT was thinking after what Anna just said. 😂
Beans on toast as weird as it seems to the rest of the world is actually a brilliant comfort food. If you do try it get british heinz beans, add a splash of some Worcester sauce a pinch of cracked black pepper and some mature cheddar cheese sprinkled on top. I tend to not put my beans directly on my toast and spoon them on right before eating or else the toast will become a soggy mess and a soggy beans on toast is not the one.
I’ve just found your channel the last couple of days and think your videos are hilarious. Especially this one. I’m from the U.K. and never think of these things being strange to other people
The toad in the hole is made using a Yorkshire pudding recipe. Basically it's a savoury pancake mix that's put in metal cupcake tins after a little smoking hot fat and roasted.
the only thing I haven't tried on this list is the deep fried mars bar lol. Black pudding is amazing!! As is haggis, oh hell they all are, you so have to try them all! I add a poached egg on top of my beans on toast and always have my bubble and squeak with brown sauce :D xx
Deep fried Mars bars are, interesting. A local chip shop in my nearest town would batter and fry any chocolate bar we wanted. Mars bar is the most popular. It sounds absolutely wrong in theory, but those things are insanely tasty and totally worth trying at least once. 1st bite is a tester, 2nd bite is a revelation, 3rd bite is sickly, 4th bite is ill-advised. In small quantities, they're delicious, but excess will get really sickly very quickly.
Black pudding isn't that unusual, most European countries have their own version of it. It comes from medieval times when all of an animal would be used because food was expensive and scarce
Toad in the hole is amazing, it basically sausages cooked into a Yorkshire pudding. A Yorkshire pudding beinc like a big crispy savoury pancake. cover it in gravy.. amazing :) Best beans on toast is put a knob of butter in the beans, sprinkle in some oregano, cook your beans, stir till nice and thick. Toast your bread, grill some cheese on top of it, then pour the beans over and enoy.. amazing :)
Black Pudding and a Tattie Scone in a softie with your choice of either ketchup or brown sauce is such an amazing breakfast roll, you have to try that. I think it’s the haggis that is unavailable in the US as the fda doesn’t approve of lung being acceptable to eat as a product over there.
Haggis is great, it can be eaten with neeps (turnip) and mashed potato, pan fried as part of a fry up (or on a breakfast roll) or my favourite way battered and deep fried as part of a supper from a chip shop. Speaking of I'm surprised they didn't give an honourable mention to pizza in batter (a thin cheap pizza covered in batter and deep fried again from a chip shop). When Scotland played Italy the crowd chanted to the Italians "deep fry yer pizzas, we're gonna deep fry yer pizza"
Beans on toast, you need thick sliced bread toasted and buttered well. Open a can of beans Heinz in tomato sauce if possible, heat in a pan then pour over the beans. Some people put grated cheese on top. I am English but hate beans. Scotch eggs are great hot or cold. Black pudding (you can get it without the lumps of fat) fried with a full breakfast it is lovely. Haggis is good too it is like a sort of peppery minced beef, eat with mashed potato and mashed swede. Suet pudding are very popular here in the North of England where I am from, it is made the same way as any other sponge pudding but the fat is substituted for grated suet (which we can buy in packets). Cooking is done in a basin, covered and steamed. For speed you can do it in the microwave instead. You can put any of your favourite jam or jelly in the bottom of the basin (cooking bowl) and when you turn it out onto a plate the hot jam or jelly runs down the side. My favourite is with Golden Syrup We always have a sauce (custard) made with custard powder, sugar and milk. Our gravy with meat is always made from a stock cube dissolved in 1 pint of water and added to the pan the meat was roasted in, seasoned with salt and pepper and thickened with cornflour.
Toad in the hole is sausage in batter also know as Yorkshire pudding. Also the chef that said sausage in the hole is an Italian chef named Gino decampo, and he is a regular chef on the early morning programme called this morning there is quite a few videos on youtube of his bloopers which are hilarious so it would be a funny one for you to watch and react to
Scoted Eggs are like a picnic or travel food, they are good tho. Most people just buy them in a supermarket and they are just ready to eat as is. Toad in the Hole is Sausages served in a Yorkshire Pudding, the juices from the sausages absorb into the Yorkshire pudding, can be eaten as is but better with a proper meat gravy.
I’m from North Carolina, and we sop our plates with biscuits or bread so beans on toast would be fine as we usually sop the juice up anyway. Like you said bread is filling so bread of some type is had at every meal. Bread, biscuits, hush puppies, dumplings, stuffing…some type.
If you didn't know what was in it and you tried it, you would love it.When ever i have a full English breakfast i always ask for an extra black pud because dipped in the sauce of the beans or the egg yoke it is lovely.
btw all of these dishes are absolutly delicuos i recommend them all ,.. a nice black ( also called bloody ) pudding and hagis tatties ( mash potato ) and neeps (mashed turnip ) is unbeatable ! scotch eggs can be dry so bring fluids :D and for beans and toast i suggest going straight for your favorite beans brand ,.. and bread its simple ,.. but if you want something far superior ,. i suggest a dish called Welsh Rarebit with worchestershire sauce ! or cheesy beanos,.. which is beans on toast with grated cheese grilled on top with or without a little bit of union !!!!
Beans on toast is the best. Chuck a fried egg on top - heaven 😋. I actually like all of these foods. You should definitely try them all - even the black pudding
Toad in the hole are sausages cook in batter known as Yorkshire pudding and served with onion gravy mashed potatoes and veg. The batter is similar to pancake batter.
5:55 In America, it's probably called Irish blood sausage. This originated in the uk and Ireland. pig blood, but some recipes use beef blood, sometimes sheep blood, pork fat or beef suet, and a cereal, usually oatmeal, oat groats, or barley groats. And this would be on a Full irish breakfast.
Oh man, now I'm hungry. It's probably been mentioned here but you can also get scotch egg made with black pudding *homer simpson drool*. It's a perfect picnic food. We usually have black pudding with English breakfasts but I've tried it with scallops and apple puree at a fancy restaurant. Was amazing, it's got to be crispy. I'm not a huge fan of beans on toast (aka skinheads on a raft) but I do love them on potato waffles. A quick recipe for you: baked beans, sausages, potatoes, chorizo, paprika...toss them in a slow cooker and you're good to go.
Baked beans are so good I can eat them cold out of the tin. Black pudding, blutwurst in Germany, is a great breakfast ingredient. Haggis is delightful with tatties and neeps.
Toad in the hole is just sausages with something called Yorkshire pudding, it’s a batter that’s cooked to rise and be fluffy inside and crispy on the outside
Toad in the hole - delicious quality British sausages baked in a batter very similar to Yorkshire pudding. Black pudding is amazing, Haggis too. Spotted Dick was being served with custard (crème Anglais, vanilla sauce) Christmas Mince pies - there’s no more iconic taste of Christmas IMO. Delicious spiced fruit filling in a crumbly shortcrust pastry. When I make ours I add nuts, fresh cranberries and brandy to the store bought mincemeat.
Agree with below, Black Pudding is delish, you don't know what you're missing!. Heinz Beans (UK) on toast is awesome too. Toad in the Hole (Yorkshire pudding with sausages).
yup that fat, suet, is in birdseed, its the block you get for feeding wild birds... Suet is the raw, hard fat of beef, lamb or mutton found around the loins and kidneys.
As a Brit living in the USA (13 years now) I can tell you, baked beans (in tomato sauce) on crispy hot buttered toast, with grated cheese melting in the beans, is one of the tastiest breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper, comfort foods there is. I served this British dish up to my 18 yr old stepson and his friends and they LAPPED it up! So much so, they made themselves the same dish the following morning and emptied out my Heinz baked beans stash!! Also, black pudding, may sound terrible, and may not look appetizing, but it has a really nice savory taste & when served with a nice soft poached egg & grilled mushrooms, is really tasty. I enjoy GOOD food, I enjoy cooking good food, duck, lamb, lobster, fillet mignon for Christmas etc. But when it comes to quick easy comfort food, you cannot beat black pudding and beans on toast :)
I’m Scottish & never had haggis my two boys like it me nah iv never tried it black pudding iv had a few times with a fry up but not crazy on it tide in the hole is really nice it’s just sausage cooked in Yorkshire pudding but u can’t beat beans on toast with some cheese or have chess beano & it’s just bean on toast out loads of cheese on top the put under the grill & let the cheese melt that is yum!!
Toad in the hole cook sausages a bit in oven with cooking oit first then mix in a bowl flour eggs milk water salt pepper put the mixture in the pan with the sausages if it sizzles then the oil is hot enough and cook you can also just cook the mixture with out sausages and have it with your rest beef
My mum cooks toad in the hole, it’s made with sausages, as for the thing it’s in the Yorkshire pudding it’s flour, eggs, and milk. Plus you’ve got the same settee (Sofa or Couch) as I’m family does.
I swear black pudding is so 🔥🔥 Haggis is god tier tho…. I grew up eating Scottish food and haggis is so nice. Also, half-battered pizza is really good as well
Beans on toast topped with chedder cheese and mushrooms (pre cooked in butter) and place the whole thing under a grill to melt the cheese. Its my fave quick meal. Black pudding is awesome, not made from pigs blood, its made from cattle blood. I know cos i worked in an abattoir in my youth. Haggis is really really nice too.
It's usually made from pigs blood and pigs fat, though occasionally made from Cows blood and beef suet. Just about all of the stuff sold in supermarkets is made from pig, including the best known varieties of 'Bury' and 'Stornoway' - You'd have to find a specialist butcher to get the beef variety.
Anna, JT,
If you try beans on toast, you need to use British baked beans: they're baked, steamed or stewed haricot beans in a tomato sauce - much more appetizing and less sweet than US baked beans which are usually navy beans, in a sauce often containing honey or molasses.
To enhance the flavour of beans on toast, try adding a little Worcestershire sauce to the beans while heating them, or even mixing in a dollop of (British) Brown sauce. Finishing off with grated cheese or even a slice of cheese after the toast is topped with beans (and then returning the plate to the grill to melt the cheese,) really enhances the flavour.
Not a cordon bleu dish by a long way, but excellent as quick and wholesome comfort food.

If you have heard of "Yorkshire Pudding", then you know what the non-sausage part of "Toad in the Hole" is. It is just Yorkshire pudding batter, with sausages in it, which is then baked.
It's very nice, especially served with baked beans!
Yorkshire pudding batter is easily made (look for recipes online)... so you should be able to make your own Toad in the Hole.
Baked Beans! That sir is an International War Crime…
As a Brit i cam safely say i have never had toad in the hole with baked beans!!! 😮😮😮😮
I know the ingredients of black pudding sound super weird, and a lot off folk get turned of by the sound of whats in it... I promise you, if you ever get the chance to eat it you would be mad not to try it. It's absolutely amazing!
It has close relatives in other countries, sometimes known as blood pudding, obvious reasons. It's origins go wayyyy back to medieval times and it was considered a delicacy. It was originally made from the blood of enemies and served to the victorious King/leader. Today, its just from pigs though... darn health and safety gone mad I guess 😂
Sadly you can good brands bad brands The Best Were the Scots ones sadly even they have gone down hill The Irish ones are now the best yet again not as Good ss they were Very Sad
Beans on toast with cheese and Worcestershire sauce is 🔥
You are a disgrace, culinary speaking😅. It's HP sauce! Everyone knows that.
… and now I’m going to make this for lunch 😂
Literally....🔥
@@RyanMK666 what did you think?

Toad in the Hole is delicious as long as you have quality sausages. The mixture around them is the same as you would make for pancakes. Not the stodgy US ones but the thinner French style ones. If you put the chilled batter mix into a very hot oven it rises deliciously around the sausages. 🇬🇧👍
Even crap ones are ok if you have Brown sause.
A quid from Iceland and they've got 4 sausages in!
The batter is the same as a Yorkshire Pudding mix, not a pancake mix; I know that I'm being pedantic, as both batters are made from flour, eggs and milk, but it is the final ingredient: salt or sugar, which differentiates the two batters. No one wants a sweet batter around a good quality sausage.
@@gingerninjawhinger9986 in general crepe/pancake batter isn't sweetened.
@@stavperides2060 I only heard a year or so ago (I'm in my thirties) that people put sugar in pancake mix... Why! When your going to smother it in syrup, honey or sugar anyway xd
What gravy OXO or BISTO, I'm an OXO person
Black pudding is one of the oldest dishes you can get. Even the ancient Spartans ate it. In Germany we have various blood sausages/puddings, e.g. Gruetzwurst, we eat with boiled potatoes and Sauerkraut or on rye bread. It's delicious and very sustainable, because it is part of the concept "from snout to tail". You can't take an animals life and only eat filet and schnitzel.
No wonder the Spartans were Badass.
We also have different types but the name doesn't change it's regional, and i'm down with using every part of the animal just like our ancestors had to.
@Mi Fri. Spot on, nothing wrong with offal. (one assumes why there's so much waste in America) Food for thought eh? (no pun intended)😉
Wasn't there a Greek who dinned with the Spartans who said "now I know why the Spartans don't fear death"
Tripe is way older but i wouldnt eat that, love black pudding though.
Black pudding is fantastic and an essential part of a full English . The older generation used to eat it on its own , steamed with English mustard and/or vinegar. You can get it in USA it sometimes called blood sausage and can be produced in links.
If you really wanna be grossed out check out how tripe is made and stargazey pie (not even I would try that one).
Don’t knock haggis till you’ve tried it, it’s delicious tastes a bit like spicy mince or as the video said spicy meatloaf. Don’t worry about not trying deep fried mars bar yet I’m from Scotland and I’ve never and probably will never try it 🤣🤣🤣 love the channel keep the videos coming 👍👍
Deep fried Mars bars are surprisingly good
You can't make haggis in the U.S. animal lungs are not considered fit for human consumption.
The oatmeal helps to bind all the ingredients together in a black pudding. It has quite a lot of seasoning in as well and yes, it's one of the foods not allowed in the States. You guys don't know what you're missing - it's lovely (and iron-rich from the blood).
Suet is little bits of caul fat and used in lots of different foods - the (non-veggie/vegan version of) mincemeat of mince pies, suet puddings and dumplings among them.
Toad in the Hole is basically sausages baked in Yorkshire pudding batter. It's lovely!
Steak and kidney pie is lovely too and you can also get steak and kidney pudding that's made with a suet pastry and the whole lot is boiled instead of being baked like the pie.
Spotted Dick - gotta have that one with custard! It's a sweet dessert.
Haggis is fab too. It's eaten widely on Burns Night with neeps and tatties (turnips and potatoes).
Beans on toast is a brillliantly multi-purpose snack meal - you can eat it for any meal and it's great! Heinz Beans are the best. Toast and butter two slices of bread, warm the beans up in a pan on the cooker or in a bowl in the microwave - don't boil them though! When they are heated up, all you do is pour them over the buttered toast. You can have unbuttered toast if you prefer, some people don't like butter.
Agree with all you've said except "Heinz beans are the best". Heinz beans used to be the best, now you've got to go Branston if you want the best.
Yeah, nah mate....well beans on toast or bangers and mash is about as pommy as I get. Love ya's though 🤗
I was with you up until the heresy about the beans. Lidl's own brand smashes Heinz. Theyre the worst beans these days
Heinz for the win 🙌 💪
HP beans (red label) were the best, but the blue label are just nasty!!
Black pudding is amazing, and it actually can be considered a superfood. The blood it's made with means that it's very high in iron, has a good protein content and limits the carbs.
While the idea of it turns a lot of people away, it is, in fact, delicious. Especially with a poached egg
I had a scotch Egg with Black pudding instead of sausage meat.... it was something transcendent
@@andrewwalton6236 ive never had it with just black pudding but ive had it with a mix of black pudd and sausage. That was insane
Definitely not amazing
It’s Amazing, it’s not amazing. it’s all a matter of opinion kids. Grow up and learn to have rational discussions instead of devolving into yes no yes no childish bickering.
Basically Toad in the hole is a Sausage in a bath of giant Yorkshire pudding mix.
Yorkshire pudding is basically the same mixture as a UK pancake (not similar to american pancakes). But rather than fried in a shallow pan, its cooked in the oven and allowed to overflow the sides of the container and they grow absolutely massive. (Usually misshapen, which adds to the charm)
My American father in law used to make German Pancakes, which were essentially Yorkshire Puddings.
9:08 toad in the hole is just a Yorkshire pudding with sausage in the middle and is often eaten with mash and gravy
Black pudding is delicious 😋 haggis is pretty good as well.
Beans on toast is just an easy meal when you want something quick. We used to eat it all the time as kids.
You need to try the British beans for beans on toast. Apparently US beans are a lot sweeter than ours here in the UK. So you won’t get the full experience. Beans on toast is something you can have for literally every meal. Super quick and super satisfying.
Much love from Manchester 🏴
Edit: meant to say, my personal favourite are Heinz baked beans. Branston beans are supposed to be really good too but I’m a Heinz woman myself and haven’t tried other brands.
I went for some cheap Sainsbury's beans and when I had Heinz again realised they are not the best! Haha. Sainsbury's are really nice to me. Beans on marmite on toast for the win!
Used to be Heinz but gone down in my estimation so much prefer Branston these days.
@@craig5066 Not actually had those myself but Heinz seem to be missing something and seem pretty bland.
Cool
@@craig5066 ok so it’s been a few days since I wrote my original comment, and in that time I went out and bought some Branston baked beans to give them a try. I’ve just eaten them now and OMG, they’re so much better than Heinz.
Anna, JT, if you’re gonna do beans on toast, then I highly recommend Branston baked beans. Since trying them after writing my initial post, I personally think they’re the superior of the 2 brands 😊
They’re actually all surprisingly tasty! I was wary of haggis and black pudding but they are delicious!
That whole list is all really good grub!!!
Anna & JT. I'm not sure you'd get the real 'Beans on Toast' experience over there as, even with a tin of UK beans, your butter and bread are not like ours.
Your bread has 6 times more sugar than UK bread and your butter is made slightly differently (Typically churned longer than American butter, European butter has between 82 and 85 percent butterfat. It also has a richer taste, softer texture, and is brighter yellow in colour than its American counterpart.). Given those items are different, you'd need to find unsweetened bread (if that's a thing in the US) to make a difference.
Agreed. US bread is like eating cake. A good yeasty loaf of bread should have just enough sugar to activate the yeast. About 2 teaspoons.
Made me laugh! lol a lot of our favourite recipes are over 500yrs old!... and the difference between our languages made this funny :)
AND!! beans on toast rocks!.. a cheap affordabvle dinner that I first experienced in the 1970's :) I enjoy some grated cheddar on mine mmmmm...
In Germany we have something like black pudding as well, we call it Blutwurst. Also, I tried Haggis before, it´s honestly nice just tastes like well-spiced meatloaf. But I needed some convincing to try it.
Haggis, keeps nd tatties are the bomb!!....
If you do deep fry Mars bars, make sure to keep them in the fridge beforehand, or they'll melt when being deep fried
Yes Anna you are right! Suet is just animal fat used to make pastries pies etc and to feed birds through winter. Brussel sprouts (mini cabbages)
I've eaten all of those foods in Australia and fruit mince pies have always been sold here at Xmas time.
We also ate tripe, liver and sheep's brains!
Mum used to fry up black pudding in the 1970s which tasted okay until someone told us kids that it was made from coagulated blood, lol.
I tried haggis at a church youth group once and scotch eggs were a normal food for us back then.
Beans on toast has always been a favourite in my house.
Then we all grew taste buds 🤣 jk....You do you mate 😁
Brains...yum! Hard to get in UK though. I love offal.
People eat sheeps brains more often than they realise.
You know that beef pie you love ?
You don't actually think that's ALL beef do you ?
Nope. they VAST majority of it is sheeps brains.
How do I know ?
I'm a trucker who delivers food. I saw them unloading a frozen load one morning and asked them what they heck was in those stretched wrapped stillages. (looked like big chunks of frozen bubble gum)
He said "You don't wanna know" which is like saying "Don't press the button" !
That's when he told me about them.
It amazes me that people who have no problem eating an animal's flesh are disgusted by eating any other part of it. People used to find wasting food disgusting when they had to hunt for it themselves and they would think the toxic processed rubbish called food today that people don't bat an eyelid at eating is disgusting. They would be the ones who are correct.
Yeah, but you guys are just Brits who took social distancing to a whole new level... 😉
As a Brit myself, I've had them all except the deep fried Mars bar and they're all amazing. I do like a Mars bar and I like battered deep fried stuff but these are a culinary crime. Toad in the hole is a very easy recipe to make and you would have no trouble finding a recipe for it. It's good because you can use your favourite sausages, then you're all but certain to love it. It's fairly traditional to have onion gravy with it, which there are a load of recipes for.
Black pudding is one of the best things that ever existed. If you like savoury things you would probably enjoy it. You don't really taste the oatmeal, it's more of a texture but obviously makes it even more nutritious.
Blach pudding is awesome! Very common in Sweden, but usually call it Blood pudding and use rye flour instead of oatmeal.
Black Pudding is absolutely lush! If you're having a fry up (unhealthy anyway) you gotta go all out and have the Black Pudding fried in the juices left over from the sausages!
Fanny smeller probably means backside sniffer for you guys but it means something completely different for us 😂
Wasn’t she in the Olympic Games years ago
toad in the hole is just and flower egg and milk mixed to a batter then pored in to a hot deep baking tray with oil then placed sausages in then put in the oven ... toads in blankis in the hole is the same with the sagauage wrapped in bacon its my fav meal ever
Everything in this list is absolutely delicious! If you can get past the name/ingredients list for some of these and just focus on the taste, they're really, REALLY good!
My favourite of all time is steak and kidney pie. Home made is best. They probably can't get kidneys in America. But offal is highly nutritious and adds real depth of flavour.
Black pudding (normally called blood pudding in the USA) isn't banned in America, you're thinking of haggis because that contains sheeps lungs in it. My brother in law used to work for a local butcher and his preferred way of making the black pudding was to stir the deep bucket of blood with his arm so he could make sure the mix was the right consistency.
I love haggis. When I was a child it wasn't widely available outside Scotland. I do miss old-fashioned black pudding a lot. It used to be a lot more velvety in texture but I think it disappeared after small local rural abbatoirs (often attached to a butcher's shop) stopped being the norm. Commercial black pudding apparently now has to be made with pasteurised dried blood. The nearest thing I've had in the last 25 years to old-fashioned black pudding is Boudin Noir, the French version which is served with mashed potato and stewed apple (not too sweet). It has that lovely velvety texture.
Don't they have their own version without sheep lung, and it not just as of the lungs but as they can't confirm if they cleaned them enough without like stomach contain I thought going in it
I'm from England, and one of our 'delicacies' is steak and kidney pudding, like the pie but with a suet pastry😀
On hot desserts, the sauce you thought was gravy is most likely "Custard", which is a hot vanilla sauce.
I had to laugh when she said it was gravy. 😆
And then they thought it was frosting 😂do they not have custard in America ? 😳
@@janieburr362 It's called "Creme Anglais" mainly in posher restaurants in the north-east US. Elsewhere, the nearest thing is thicker and eaten as a cold pudding, a bit like Dutch, Vanilla flavoured Vla.
@@johnp8131 that's the French name and it means English cream.
My favourite dessert. Especially in Trifle at Christmas ❤❤❤️.
Guys seriously, black pudding is absolutely amazing. Especially when you get the proper stornoway stuff
or even better: the proper Bury stuff! (less cinnamon)
I’m from Scotland and just found your channel love it BTW and in the nicest way possible use hurt my brain haha 😆
Black pudding is (as JT would say) fire! A lot of people are put off by the mention of congealed pigs blood but it’s honestly delicious. Haggis is also amazing. Great boiled as it was intended but also amazing sliced and shallow fried, and put in a roll with a runny fried egg.
I think the inclusion of the word "congealed" didn't really help selling it. I love the stuff, but even my nose wrinkled at the description in the video.
Has to be with neeps and tatties.
@@nealgrimes4382 goes without saying 😊
I've had haggis sliced and grilled. It was disgusting; I've never touched it in the 40 years since!
Love black pudding on full English breakfast. Don't knock it if you have not tried it..
I once made a toad-in-the-hole with pigs-in-blankets in place of regular sausages. It was sooooooooo good but I understand the name may be confusing 😂
Also the 'gravy' on the spotted dick was custard which if you haven't tried it is a classic British sauce for sweet food (puddings = desserts, NOT puddings = steamed pies/blood sausage) and it's made with egg yolks, cream/milk, sugar and vanilla.
If you haven't watched it yet you should look up 'Learn English with Ricky Gervais' - you two being confused at the names of things in this reminded me of that video.
oh god. I have never thought of a toad in the hole using pigs in blankets. A Must Try!
I've got some pigs in blankets in the freezer so I may just have to give it a try 😃
Hmm pigs in blankets in a toad hole, i'm going to try but the name may need work.
I love your idea of using pigs in blankets for toad in the hole.
Thank you for my inspiration for tomorrow nights dinner!
Toad in the hole is straight up delicious. Set oven to 400f (200c). Part cook 8 pork sausages in a large pyrex dish using a tablespoon of oil.
Mix 105g of plain flour with 3 large eggs and 150ml of milk - whisk until smooth, season with salt and pepper. Set in fridge for about 20mins.
Once the sausages have been part cooked for about 10mins take out and pour the batter. Place back in the oven for 20-25mins until the batter has risen. Serve with mash potatoes and gravy and vegetables of your choosing (peas or fine green beans work well) - enjoy.
Toad in the hole is yorkshire pudding (savoury pancake mix) with sausages best served with mash potato and gravy
2:04 scotch eggs are gorgeous😋
2:44 "According to Culinary Delights of Yorkshire, they originated in Whitby, Yorkshire, England, in the 19th century, and were originally covered in fish paste rather than sausage meat. They were supposedly named after William J. Scott & Sons, a well-known eatery which sold them."
5:03 "Blood sausage first arrived in the UK via European monks. They called it 'blutwurst' which means blood sausage. As mentioned, it could be the oldest sausage around. It is referenced in 800 BC and the oldest detailed recipe is from the Romans around the 4th Century."
9:11 sausages' in Yorkshire pudding (gravy)
I love a scotch egg. The finest snack food ever invented.
Yorkshirians will claim anything as theirs, just to appear more English than any other English to keep that God's County BS chip on their shoulders, just like their inherent levels of racism to rival Essex's..
i'm not sure they know what yorkshire pudding is. They seemed confused in the video and why wouldn't you think it tasted good, even though the video explained kinda how it was made.
@@steve9833 its a baked batter savoury food typically eaten with Sunday Dinner/Roast
Brilliant reviews from both your channels. Just to tie in with your football chants review, I support Sheffield united FC, and our main song is called the Greasy Chip Butty, the chip / fries sandwich at the end of your review. Its sang to the tune of Annie's song by John Denver. And tells of the unhealthy pleasures like Beer, smoking and greasy food and of course a night out in Sheffield. It's almost a battle cry to rally the supporters and players alike.
It's a Rotherham United song
Oh West Street then onto City massage
Heinz baked beans are lush on toast 😋 great video ♥
Anna got a real giggle laugh she makes me laugh with her
4:37 ish
The double, slow stare of horror! It's made of WHAT?!!! 😂😂😂
JT you make me laugh we don't eat scotch eggs with scotch 😆 everything you've viewed is delicious 😋 You have to try them if you both ever visit the UK. Black pudding is 👌
Y'all were more confused than a blind guy at a silent movie! Hehe! I enjoyed this, our food seems so weird to you, yet your food kind of resonates here in variation? Weird, but we're all one wonderful world! Love from Derby, England! Xx
IKR like how could toad in the hole and beans on toast sound weird but peanut butter and jelly not- and the jelly isn't even jelly, it's jam! 😂😂
Definitely try beans on toast guys, a lot of the other foods are horrible, even as a Brit I agree 😄 and maybe if you can, try a full English breakfast or a shepherds pie. Love from London! 👍❤
you sure you are a brit? .... come on behave British is a culture if you not eating British food indulging in your own culture call yourself a corrupted Englishman.
Shepherds pie with beans at the bottom is amazing
The ingredients for black puddings do vary as you go to different places around the country but mainly they consist of whatever grain is readily available, in Scotland this is usually pinhead oats which are finely milled whereas in Yorkshire and Lancashire and down into the midlands we are more likely to use barley or more specifically pearled barley which is barley which has been rubbed and polished to remove the husk from the barley grains. Further south the preference is for a mixed grain including wheat and barley which again is pearled. Unless you’re killing your pig at home, it is very unlikely that you will have the blood in it’s natural state as this is a result of Government interference and most pudding makers nowadays use an imported dried blood from Holland which is easily rehydrated and works really well. The third ingredient in most puddings is fresh white flare fat diced to suit the texture that is needed, then quickly blanched in boiling water and added to the mixture. Finally the pudding maker will add a time honoured blend of assorted mixed dried herbs and spices and it all is throughly mixed together, then poured or piped into throughly cleaned natural sausage casings and tied into individual link’s which are then then lowered into large pans of hot water which is just off the boil. After being cooked in this manner the puddings are checked and sometimes pricked with a pin to relieve any pressure and then the now grey looking puddings are hung up to dry and take on the more appetising black colour, once they are set up they can now be hung up on display for sale to be taken home and sliced and fried to join with other ingredients for a classic English breakfast or maybe to join with fried scallops for a tasty supper dish.
Black pudding is beautiful! Especially when you're smashing a full English, with all the trimmings including toast and fried bread!
Black pudding and white pudding are delicious as is a nicely seasoned haggis. 😋🏴
Edit - 9:32 I know exactly what JT was thinking after what Anna just said. 😂
Beans on toast as weird as it seems to the rest of the world is actually a brilliant comfort food. If you do try it get british heinz beans, add a splash of some Worcester sauce a pinch of cracked black pepper and some mature cheddar cheese sprinkled on top. I tend to not put my beans directly on my toast and spoon them on right before eating or else the toast will become a soggy mess and a soggy beans on toast is not the one.
I wanna see you guys eat Brussels sprouts live on a stream 😅 definitely an acquired taste
My favourite vegetable.
With bacon, om nom nom! 😋
🤢🤢🤢 the only good sprout, is in the bin 🤣
I’ve just found your channel the last couple of days and think your videos are hilarious. Especially this one. I’m from the U.K. and never think of these things being strange to other people
The toad in the hole is made using a Yorkshire pudding recipe. Basically it's a savoury pancake mix that's put in metal cupcake tins after a little smoking hot fat and roasted.
the only thing I haven't tried on this list is the deep fried mars bar lol. Black pudding is amazing!! As is haggis, oh hell they all are, you so have to try them all! I add a poached egg on top of my beans on toast and always have my bubble and squeak with brown sauce :D xx
Deep fried Mars bars are, interesting.
A local chip shop in my nearest town would batter and fry any chocolate bar we wanted.
Mars bar is the most popular. It sounds absolutely wrong in theory, but those things are insanely tasty and totally worth trying at least once. 1st bite is a tester, 2nd bite is a revelation, 3rd bite is sickly, 4th bite is ill-advised. In small quantities, they're delicious, but excess will get really sickly very quickly.
Don't make fun of black pudding until you've tried it.
It's not the uk that puts 20 chemicals in every food.
Black pudding isn't that unusual, most European countries have their own version of it.
It comes from medieval times when all of an animal would be used because food was expensive and scarce
Had various regional German versions over there and I agree with you.
Aww pups on the back of the couch keeps looking as if to say why aren't you stroking me too 😢
Toad in the hole is amazing, it basically sausages cooked into a Yorkshire pudding. A Yorkshire pudding beinc like a big crispy savoury pancake. cover it in gravy.. amazing :)
Best beans on toast is put a knob of butter in the beans, sprinkle in some oregano, cook your beans, stir till nice and thick. Toast your bread, grill some cheese on top of it, then pour the beans over and enoy.. amazing :)
Black Pudding and a Tattie Scone in a softie with your choice of either ketchup or brown sauce is such an amazing breakfast roll, you have to try that. I think it’s the haggis that is unavailable in the US as the fda doesn’t approve of lung being acceptable to eat as a product over there.
A Mars bar in the UK is just a Milky way bar in America. Just in case you want to make them sooner 🤍
Is it? So what is a uk milky way called in america then?
But we have a Milky Way in the uk and it’s different to a mars?

Haggis is great, it can be eaten with neeps (turnip) and mashed potato, pan fried as part of a fry up (or on a breakfast roll) or my favourite way battered and deep fried as part of a supper from a chip shop. Speaking of I'm surprised they didn't give an honourable mention to pizza in batter (a thin cheap pizza covered in batter and deep fried again from a chip shop). When Scotland played Italy the crowd chanted to the Italians "deep fry yer pizzas, we're gonna deep fry yer pizza"
Beans on toast, you need thick sliced bread toasted and buttered well. Open a can of beans Heinz in tomato sauce if possible, heat in a pan then pour over the beans. Some people put grated cheese on top. I am English but hate beans. Scotch eggs are great hot or cold. Black pudding (you can get it without the lumps of fat) fried with a full breakfast it is lovely. Haggis is good too it is like a sort of peppery minced beef, eat with mashed potato and mashed swede. Suet pudding are very popular here in the North of England where I am from, it is made the same way as any other sponge pudding but the fat is substituted for grated suet (which we can buy in packets). Cooking is done in a basin, covered and steamed. For speed you can do it in the microwave instead. You can put any of your favourite jam or jelly in the bottom of the basin (cooking bowl) and when you turn it out onto a plate the hot jam or jelly runs down the side. My favourite is with Golden Syrup We always have a sauce (custard) made with custard powder, sugar and milk. Our gravy with meat is always made from a stock cube dissolved in 1 pint of water and added to the pan the meat was roasted in, seasoned with salt and pepper and thickened with cornflour.
Toad in the hole is sausage in batter also know as Yorkshire pudding. Also the chef that said sausage in the hole is an Italian chef named Gino decampo, and he is a regular chef on the early morning programme called this morning there is quite a few videos on youtube of his bloopers which are hilarious so it would be a funny one for you to watch and react to
Scoted Eggs are like a picnic or travel food, they are good tho. Most people just buy them in a supermarket and they are just ready to eat as is.
Toad in the Hole is Sausages served in a Yorkshire Pudding, the juices from the sausages absorb into the Yorkshire pudding, can be eaten as is but better with a proper meat gravy.
I’m from North Carolina, and we sop our plates with biscuits or bread so beans on toast would be fine as we usually sop the juice up anyway. Like you said bread is filling so bread of some type is had at every meal. Bread, biscuits, hush puppies, dumplings, stuffing…some type.
In Belgium we have a few these. Black pudding is called bloedworst (blood sausage) here and a scotch egg is called vogelnestje (birds nest).
If you didn't know what was in it and you tried it, you would love it.When ever i have a full English breakfast i always ask for an extra black pud because dipped in the sauce of the beans or the egg yoke it is lovely.
btw all of these dishes are absolutly delicuos i recommend them all ,.. a nice black ( also called bloody ) pudding and hagis tatties ( mash potato ) and neeps (mashed turnip ) is unbeatable ! scotch eggs can be dry so bring fluids :D and for beans and toast i suggest going straight for your favorite beans brand ,.. and bread its simple ,.. but if you want something far superior ,. i suggest a dish called Welsh Rarebit with worchestershire sauce ! or cheesy beanos,.. which is beans on toast with grated cheese grilled on top with or without a little bit of union !!!!
Toad in the hole is pancake batter with sausages in it, usually with onion gravy, really filling, and really tasty
I've just found this channel. You two are hilarious 😂
@11:58 haha that was custard on top of the spotted dessert lol 😆
Beans on toast is the best. Chuck a fried egg on top - heaven 😋. I actually like all of these foods. You should definitely try them all - even the black pudding
Spotted Duck and Custard ❤. Custard is just Sugar, Milk and Egg Yolk, gently heated up, you can also pour it over Apple pie
Toad in the hole are sausages cook in batter known as Yorkshire pudding and served with onion gravy mashed potatoes and veg. The batter is similar to pancake batter.
5:55 In America, it's probably called Irish blood sausage. This originated in the uk and Ireland. pig blood, but some recipes use beef blood, sometimes sheep blood, pork fat or beef suet, and a cereal, usually oatmeal, oat groats, or barley groats. And this would be on a Full irish breakfast.
Oh man, now I'm hungry. It's probably been mentioned here but you can also get scotch egg made with black pudding *homer simpson drool*. It's a perfect picnic food. We usually have black pudding with English breakfasts but I've tried it with scallops and apple puree at a fancy restaurant. Was amazing, it's got to be crispy.
I'm not a huge fan of beans on toast (aka skinheads on a raft) but I do love them on potato waffles. A quick recipe for you: baked beans, sausages, potatoes, chorizo, paprika...toss them in a slow cooker and you're good to go.
I’d love to gatekeep Toad in the Hole but I travel too much and constantly crave it when I’m abroad! I serve it to visitors and they always LOVE it.
Baked beans are so good I can eat them cold out of the tin.
Black pudding, blutwurst in Germany, is a great breakfast ingredient.
Haggis is delightful with tatties and neeps.

Toad in the hole is just sausages with something called Yorkshire pudding, it’s a batter that’s cooked to rise and be fluffy inside and crispy on the outside
Toad in the hole - delicious quality British sausages baked in a batter very similar to Yorkshire pudding.
Black pudding is amazing, Haggis too.
Spotted Dick was being served with custard (crème Anglais, vanilla sauce)
Christmas Mince pies - there’s no more iconic taste of Christmas IMO. Delicious spiced fruit filling in a crumbly shortcrust pastry. When I make ours I add nuts, fresh cranberries and brandy to the store bought mincemeat.
Agree with below, Black Pudding is delish, you don't know what you're missing!. Heinz Beans (UK) on toast is awesome too. Toad in the Hole (Yorkshire pudding with sausages).
yup that fat, suet, is in birdseed, its the block you get for feeding wild birds... Suet is the raw, hard fat of beef, lamb or mutton found around the loins and kidneys.
Toad in the Hole is essentially pancake batter mix put in a tray with sausages and cooked in the oven
Back pudding is delish especially with bacon eggs beans white pudding sausage a good old fry up yum
Oh my God, once winter comes around again, am going to have to send a box of mince pies to your PO Box for you to try... They are amazing! 🤩
As a Brit living in the USA (13 years now) I can tell you, baked beans (in tomato sauce) on crispy hot buttered toast, with grated cheese melting in the beans, is one of the tastiest breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper, comfort foods there is. I served this British dish up to my 18 yr old stepson and his friends and they LAPPED it up! So much so, they made themselves the same dish the following morning and emptied out my Heinz baked beans stash!!
Also, black pudding, may sound terrible, and may not look appetizing, but it has a really nice savory taste & when served with a nice soft poached egg & grilled mushrooms, is really tasty. I enjoy GOOD food, I enjoy cooking good food, duck, lamb, lobster, fillet mignon for Christmas etc. But when it comes to quick easy comfort food, you cannot beat black pudding and beans on toast :)
beans on toast is popular cause its cheap and filling
Toad in the hole is basically Yorkshire pudding with a sausage in it and its really nice.
Also, toad in the hole is extremely delicious! It's Yorkshire pudding with sausages in it. Try it.
I’m Scottish & never had haggis my two boys like it me nah iv never tried it black pudding iv had a few times with a fry up but not crazy on it tide in the hole is really nice it’s just sausage cooked in Yorkshire pudding but u can’t beat beans on toast with some cheese or have chess beano & it’s just bean on toast out loads of cheese on top the put under the grill & let the cheese melt that is yum!!

Toad in the Hole is sausage cooked in something similar to a pancake batter. It's similar to our pigs in a blanket.
My mum cooks toad in the hole, it’s made with sausages, as for the thing it’s in the Yorkshire pudding it’s flour, eggs, and milk. Plus you’ve got the same settee (Sofa or Couch) as I’m family does.
I swear black pudding is so 🔥🔥
Haggis is god tier tho…. I grew up eating Scottish food and haggis is so nice. Also, half-battered pizza is really good as well
Bubble and squeak you essentially do after a roast if you’ve got loads of veg left buts kinda like veggie filled mashed potato!!! It’s lush❤
Beans on toast topped with chedder cheese and mushrooms (pre cooked in butter) and place the whole thing under a grill to melt the cheese. Its my fave quick meal. Black pudding is awesome, not made from pigs blood, its made from cattle blood. I know cos i worked in an abattoir in my youth. Haggis is really really nice too.
It's usually made from pigs blood and pigs fat, though occasionally made from Cows blood and beef suet. Just about all of the stuff sold in supermarkets is made from pig, including the best known varieties of 'Bury' and 'Stornoway' - You'd have to find a specialist butcher to get the beef variety.
Sausage and Yorkshire pudding which is gorgeous omg I'm so hungry
Beans on toast is like our PB&J. It's simple, hot, filling and something a child old enough to use a stove can make.
