Food the Brits have that America doesn't

You'll probably find it much better if you use FULL FAT milk, but 'Birds' also make an 'INSTANT' version, where you don't even need milk, just boil a kettle of water !!!

 

i've seen the instant packets on amazon; haven't found it locally (maybe hiding somewhere at cost plus?)

is "full fat" the same as what we'd call "whole" milk here or 2%?

 

Whole milk. Use slightly less than a pint also - makes nice thick custard.
Although I have a recipe for making your own custard.
Anyway, I use a tin of evaporated milk, when using Birds custard.

 

Walkers is a American owned company. Owned by Frito Lay

 

I know nothing. lol

 

This is basically what us Americans call Potato chips right?

 

We have these At bakeries in the US and they are delicious

 

ahhhh yes the art of making custard ,and getting it the right thickness ,without lumps ,nobody likes lumpy custard ? right

 

Yes. Frito Lay owns a lot of different brands.

 

We have many European foods in the UK.
Difficult to find any British restaurant.
Only Carveries, that I know of.

 

One way of getting a full roast dinner, but I prefer to do my own - then whatever remains of the beef joint, afterwards, I make a stew with for the next couple of days.

 

I do that, or eat it cold with mash and branston pickle.

 

Or slapped between to bits of bread and smothered in horseradish sauce.

 

Nah me no likey horseradish sauce.

 

Cheeky !

 

Sorry matey, you've got to get up very early to catch me - I'm normally up and about around 06.00 am which, across the 'pond' would still be 01.00 EST.

 

Ha, ha, ha...lol..

 

Furthermore matey, I think we were there several hundred years before you !!!

 

We call your biscuits cookies, but what do you guys over there call our baking powder biscuits (like in the picture)?
