Pease pudding and Stottie cake absolutely delicious.

A can of PILCHARDS in tomato sauce. Drenched in vinegar and black pepper.

I have this at least once a week. Oily fish is good for you, apparently.

Chicken vol au vents. All day long.

My dear old nan used to make BRAWN to die for. Half a pigs head from the butchers, cooked in jelly, congealed inside a cereal bowl. Serve cold with salt - heaven.

Me and my dad used to fight over it. That processed pink shite you get from a deli counter bears absolutely no comparison. Makes me sad I'll never have it again. That recipe, the way she did it, went with her to the grave

Red Leicester and Brown Sauce Sandwich.

Not the insipid embarrassing 1970 cousin of Cheddar, but the proper stuff.

British Vintage Red Fox from ALDI. Incredible cheese, incredible.

Chicken vol au vents. All day long.

A personal favourite of mine from the 1970s, but a cream chicken pie with puff pastry even more so.

I used to make a "whole roast chicken" chicken pie, which basically consists of cutting the dark meat into tiny shreds so it melts into the sauce , the breast cut into large generous chunks.

I have have absolutely no embarrassment about using stock cubes all the time and even bring them back from holiday.

Once you crumbled have an OXO into a homemade beef burger, you don't go back.

I use them like flavoured salt.

The HIGHLIGHT of a 70's Portslade wedding. That, and the fight

Thumb for the Red Fox
Brown sauce :Not so much

Sprouts

Could easily eat a bucket of them. Love them. And just plain boiled to boot, none of this “fried in butter and bacon” nonsense.

Have you made Coleslaw out of them yet ?

 

[maresfield seagull]

Has White pudding been mentioned yet ?

 

[maresfield seagull]

As for the corned beef hashes Served with a runny fried egg or two ?
Ye or Neigh ?

 

[Jaxie]

Potato waffle sandwich. With ketchup

Yep. I do that too.

Heaven deep fried !

Just having a corned beef and mustard sandwich on white sliced with a nice cup of tea. I'm really enjoying it but most people I know would never have corned beef on their shopping lists.

You couldn’t be further from the truth. You have described one of the great sandwiches of all time! And/or with Branston Pickle is what puts the Great in Britain. The only question is what type of bread, but really it’s got to be soft and white. Certainly not a baguette. Other common mistakes include adding lettuce or other exotic salad bits.

Agreed. I have just had another. White sliced, real butter, Colman's mustard and I've accompanied this with leek and potato soup. That should see me through to my fruit and porridge at 4am

 

[clapham_gull]

Yep. I do that too.

There is nothing like this and contains no actual chicken.

I discovered it in Canada. Expensive to import from Amazon but it will last for ages and ages because of the salt. It's deeply concentrated and you use very very little.

Even at the price, it's better value than stock cubes.

There is nothing better to marinade chicken in than "chicken".

I seem to recall that Vienetta being scoffed at,by right-minded people.
I used to love it, haven't seen one for about 20 years though

Once sophisticated. Now free with a bucket of KFC.
