Toad in the hole Sausage, big fat sausages arranged in a sort of over grown Yorkshire pud Bubble and Squeak, the same sausages in either mashed potatoes or batter (North/South dived), but with the added "delight" of boiled cabbage. I'll allow the reader to decide why bubble and squeak is so called.... Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Toad in the hole, depending on who you speak to, can be made with all sorts of meat, although these days it is usually sausages. My grandmother insisted it was left over cooked meat, my aunt, who now lives in New England, uses spam, but that was probably because she got spam as an extra from my Uncle before they were married. My mother used sausages but always cooked them first and then cut them into bite sized chunks before covering in batter. Until recently, when it became a pre-cooked frozen dish, I don't know anyone north of Watford who even knew of Bubble and Squeak. In fact I think it was originaly only a London dish, probably from the East End. |

Even more so if the cabbage is supplemented/replaced with sprouts... Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Even more so if the cabbage is supplemented/replaced with sprouts... Isn't that covered by some cruelty law, or failing that, could it classed as an NBC attack. edit] I have just imagined the result if washed down with a pint of Newcastle Brown or similar. edit2] and a couple of spoons of mushy peas. |

Newcastle Brown, now there's an ale from the past. Spied it in Sainsbury's the other day and decided to try a bottle. Not sure if they've changed the brew, but its still not the most palatable ale around, nor the most gassy.... I've only once had the sprout/cabbage version of bubble and squeak. That is one culinary experience that I would prefer not to repeat, ranking alongside sheep's eyes and witchetty grubs, but not quite as rank as tripe (in any form) Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

OY you guys, all that belong in the Cooking/Beer thread. OK more off topic. I liked my Grandma's tripe. Off course in a sweet and sour sauce to cover it good. What can I say. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |

OY you guys, all that belong in the Cooking/Beer thread. Oy yourself, go find your own national food site. Now should I wash down this meal of Westfälische Schinken, Kartoffelsalat und Sauerkraut with a DAB or a Herforder Pils |

To answer the title of the thread; It's because we have no English people here. :-) #resist |
