British cuisine has been described as “unfussy dishes made with quality local ingredients, matched with simple sauces to accentuate flavor, rather than disguise it.” However, British cuisine has absorbed the cultural influence of those who have settled in Britain, producing many hybrid dishes, such as the Anglo- Indian chicken tikka masala. Here, our executive chefs have identified some of the most popular traditional dishes in Great Britain. We recommend that you consult with your caterer about local specialties, as well as what’s available and in-season. MealMEAL Schedule SCHEDULE GREAT BRITAIN Breakfast is between 6:30 to 9.00 a.m. Normally consisting of a cereal-based product, but is replaced on weekends with a cooked breakfast and eaten slightly later. More breakfast SHETLAND ISLAND is now eaten on the run on weekdays from coffee shops and food-to-go outlets. Brunch is usually during the late morning, but can extend as SCOTLAND late as 3 p.m. Mainly eaten on weekends, which is relatively new in the United Kingdom, introduced in the last 20 years by mainly American-style dining outlets.

The cuisine has many regional varieties within the broader categories of English, Scottish and Welsh cuisine. Each have developed their own regional or local dishes, many of which are geographically indicated foods. • Cornish Pasties: A handheld meal covered in thick pastry dough. Typically filled with meat at one end and fruit or jam at the other end. • Yorkshire Pudding: This dish is not usually eaten as a dessert like other puddings but instead as part of the main course or as a starter. Yorkshire pudding, made from flour, eggs and milk, is a sort of batter baked in the oven and usually moistened with gravy. The traditional way to eat a Yorkshire pudding is to have a large, flat one filled with gravy and vegetables as a starter of the meal. Then when the meal is over, any unused puddings should be served with jam or ice-cream as a dessert. • Cumberland Sausage: A pepper-flavored pork sausage that is typically up to 50cm (21 in) long. • Arbroath Smokie: Salt-preserved haddock that is cooked by being tied up and hung in covered smoke barrels. • Welsh Cakes: A sugary type of flatcake that features dried fruit and is cooked on a cast-iron griddle. • Shepherd’s Pie: Made with minced lamb and vegetables topped with mashed potato. • Fish and Chips: Fish (cod, haddock, huss, plaice) deep fried in flour batter with chips (fried potatoes) dressed in malt vinegar. This is England’s traditional take-away food or, as US would say, “to go.” Fish and chips are not normally home cooked but bought at a fish and chip shop (“chippie”) to eat on premises or as a “take away.” • Cottage Pie: Made with minced beef and vegetables topped with mashed potato. • Black Pudding (Blood Pudding): Looks like a black sausage. It is made from dried pig’s blood and fat. Eaten at breakfast time, black pudding recipes vary from region to region, some are more peppery and some are more fatty than others. • Pie and Mash with Parsley Liquor: A very traditional East End London meal. The original pies were made with eels because at the time eels were a cheaper product than beef. About fifty years ago, mince beef pies replaced the eels and have now become the traditional pie and mash that people know. The traditional pie and mash doesn’t come without its famous sauce, known as liquor, which is bright green and non-alcoholic. Jellied eels are also an East End delicacy, often sold with pie and mash. LOCAL INGREDIENTS Mint Sauce, Malt Vinegar, Hot White Horseradish Sauce, Sweet Apple Sauce, British Beef, Kidneys and Lamb’s Fry, Pork, Gammon, Black Pudding, Blood Sausage, Cheddar, Cheshire, Stilton, Rainbow Trout, River Salmon, Eels, Rock Cod, Haddock, Flounder, Monkfish, Herring, Pickled Fish, Pickled Vegetables, Branston Pickle This information was provided by Air Culinaire Worldwide.

    CENTRE FOR NEWFOUNDLAND STUDIES TOTAL OF 10 PAGES ONLY MAY BE XEROXED (Without Author' s Permission) p CLASS ACTS: CULINARY TOURISM IN NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR by Holly Jeannine Everett A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Folklore Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2005 St. John's Newfoundland ii Class Acts: Culinary Tourism in Newfoundland and Labrador Abstract This thesis, building on the conceptual framework outlined by folklorist Lucy Long, examines culinary tourism in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The data upon which the analysis rests was collected through participant observation as well as qualitative interviews and surveys. The first chapter consists of a brief overview of traditional foodways in Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as a summary of the current state of the tourism industry. As well, the methodology which underpins the study is presented. Chapter two examines the historical origins of culinary tourism and the development of the idea in the Canadian context. The chapter ends with a description of Newfoundland and Labrador's current culinary marketing campaign, "A Taste of Newfoundland and Labrador." With particular attention to folklore scholarship, the course of academic attention to foodways and tourism, both separately and in tandem, is documented in chapter three. The second part of the thesis consists of three case studies. Chapter four examines the uses of seal flipper pie in hegemonic discourse about the province and its culture. Fried foods, specifically fried fish, potatoes and cod tongues, provide the starting point for a discussion of changing attitudes toward food, health and the obligations of citizenry in chapter five.

  • Hot Food Takeaways – Doncaster
    Hot food takeaways: An evidence base review for Doncaster Clare Henry, Public Health Specialist Caroline Temperton, Public Health Co-ordinator Emma Wilson, Public Health Officer Doncaster Council Updated June 2019 2 Hot Food Takeaways – Doncaster 1. Introduction Background The purpose of this report is to provide an evidence base for the hot food takeaway policy in the emerging Local Plan. This report summarises the policy context and evidence which has informed the council’s decision to regulate takeaways through the planning system. It forms part of Doncaster Council’s wider strategic approach in promoting a healthy environment and addressing health concerns of the population, particularly with respect to obesity, in the borough. Over recent years, a whole systems approach to obesity and the benefits of healthy eating have attracted attention nationally and have highlighted the role that local authorities have in seeking positive solutions. This is outlined in the Healthy People, Healthy Places briefing Obesity and the Environment: Regulating the Growth of Fast Food Outlets (PHE 2014) where local authorities are urged to utilise the range of legislation and policy at their disposal to create places where people are supported to maintain a healthy weight. The existing planning policy on hot food takeaways is a Unitary Development Plan Policy (SH14). This existing policy focuses on managing environmental impacts such as noise, traffic, odour and refuse and protecting the amenity of nearby residents. It also has regard to the number and location of existing hot food takeaways and the cumulative effect of problems created as such. This and other development plan policies do not consider the health impacts associated with restaurants, drinking establishments and hot food takeaways.

  • The 'Eeeuw' Factor
    NEWLING—THE ‘EEEUW’ FACTOR THE ‘EEEUW’ FACTOR: The Viscerally Sensorial Realities of Being the Colonial Gastronomer Jacqui Newling Sydney Living Museums Author’s statement: This paper includes images that people may find confronting or disturbing. No offence is intended in showing these images. This article was prepared on Gadigal and Wangal lands. The places in Sydney Living Museums’ care are on Aboriginal lands. Sydney Living Museums acknowledges the First Nations Peoples, the traditional custodians, and pays respects to the Elders, past and present, and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Abstract As the Colonial Gastronomer at Sydney Living Museums I research, interpret, write, blog, lecture, broadcast and present interactive programs to engage and educate audiences about Australian colonial food and heritage. But how do you learn about the sensory qualities of foods that were popular two hundred years ago, especially those that have been discarded from the mainstream (particularly Anglo-Celtic) Australian culinary repertoire? How they looked and tasted, their textures and aromas? My answer: make them. This has meant preparing and cooking foods that many Australian people find offensive, distasteful, disgusting and ‘gross’: calves’ feet jelly, boiled calves’ heads, brawned pig’s face, peeled tongues, and collared eels so fresh they twitch and jump on the Locale: The Australasian-Pacific Journal of Regional Food Studies Number 7, 2018 —45— NEWLING—THE ‘EEEUW’ FACTOR benchtop when filleted. This auto-ethnographic analysis draws on my experiences of working with articles of culinary disgust, particularly animal heads and tongues, to reflect upon the pedagogical processes involved in my role as the Colonial Gastronomer.

  • Ethnobiology of Georgia
    SHOTA TUSTAVELI ZAAL KIKVIDZE NATIONAL SCIENCE FUNDATION ILIA STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS ETHNOBIOLOGY OF GEORGIA ISBN 978-9941-18-350-8 Tbilisi 2020 Ethnobiology of Georgia 2020 Zaal Kikvidze Preface My full-time dedication to ethnobiology started in 2012, since when it has never failed to fascinate me. Ethnobiology is a relatively young science with many blank areas still in its landscape, which is, perhaps, good motivation to write a synthetic text aimed at bridging the existing gaps. At this stage, however, an exhaustive representation of materials relevant to the ethnobiology of Georgia would be an insurmountable task for one author. My goal, rather, is to provide students and researchers with an introduction to my country’s ethnobiology. This book, therefore, is about the key traditions that have developed over a long history of interactions between humans and nature in Georgia, as documented by modern ethnobiologists. Acknowledgements: I am grateful to my colleagues – Rainer Bussmann, Narel Paniagua Zambrana, David Kikodze and Shalva Sikharulidze for the exciting and fruitful discussions about ethnobiology, and their encouragement for pushing forth this project. Rainer Bussmann read the early draft of this text and I am grateful for his valuable comments. Special thanks are due to Jana Ekhvaia, for her crucial contribution as project coordinator and I greatly appreciate the constant support from the staff and administration of Ilia State University. Finally, I am indebted to my fairy wordmother, Kate Hughes whose help was indispensable at the later stages of preparation of this manuscript. 2 Table of contents Preface.......................................................................................................................................................... 2 Chapter 1.

  • "Fish and Chips" Is Deep-Fried Fish in Batter with Deep-Fried Potatoes, and a Popular Take-Away Food
    FISH AND CHIPS "Fish and chips" is deep-fried fish in batter with deep-fried potatoes, and a popular take-away food. Fish and chips is originally from the United Kingdom, but also very popular in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and some coastal towns of the Netherlands and Norway; and also increasingly so in the United States and elsewhere. For decades it was the dominant (if not the only) take-away food in the United Kingdom. The fried potatoes are called chips in British and international usage; and while American English calls them French fries, the combination is still called "fish and chips". (Potato chips, an American innovation, are a different potato-derived food, and are known as crisps in the United Kingdom.) Fish and chips have separately been eaten for many years – though the potato was not introduced to Europe until the 17th century. The originally Sephardi dish pescado frito, or deep-fried fish, came to Netherlands and England with the Spanish and Portuguese Jews in the 17th and 18th centuries. The dish became popular in more widespread circles in London and the south- east in the middle of the 19th century (Charles Dickens mentions a "fried fish warehouse" in Oliver Twist) whilst in the north of England a trade in deep-fried "chipped" potatoes developed. It is unclear when and where these two trades were merged to become the fish and chip shop industry we know today. The first combined fish and chip shop was probably the one opened in London by Joseph Malin in 1860.

  • Petticoat Lane Al Fresco –––––––––––––––––––––––– for the Last Four Centuries, P
    Petticoat Lane Al Fresco –––––––––––––––––––––––– For the last four centuries, Petticoat Lane Market formed a sort of membrane between the ‘City of London’ and the ‘East End’. The granite heart of global capitalism on one side of cast iron bollards, the red-brick muscle of Empire’s labourers on the other. Over the last seventy years, however, the gradual closure of the docks and the outsourcing of industry has seen the city’s muscle wither. The City on the other hand – along with its ‘cognitive labour’ – has metastasised through the old inner-East End. You can smell the coffee roasters and sourdough pizzerias chasing the cement and emulsion-paint-fumes up the road, from Whitechapel to Mile End. Like an amoeba phagocytosing a smaller organism, The City has also enveloped Petticoat Lane, cocooned it with towers of glass and wipe-clean cladding, and is slowly digesting it. Over the course of the last fifteen years, the enzymatic action of re-valorised inner-city living has all but entirely broken down the old market, reconstituting greasy spoon cafes, luggage retailers and kinky underwear wholesalers into cocktail bars, gourmet ‘candy’ retailers and Chicago rib joints. The old market has not, however, been fully digested. At least not at the time of writing. For a start, there are still a handful of wholesalers in its vicinity. Peddling imported luminous batiks, patent leather heels, bongs and phone covers, the wholesalers are dependent on customers making the increasingly expensive trip into London’s congestion charge zone. In between the residues of the rag-trade is also Petticoat Lane’s food court; an assemblage of plastic patio chairs, polystyrene containers, a café, a restaurant and between five to eight food trucks.
