I wish it was more common in the U.S.

I got a traditional high tea meal when I was in England. Clotted cream on anything tasted so good.

>>8273113

>>8273116
It would have to be marketed and labeled as something else entirely. No 'murrican would ever purchase something called "clotted cream" as a foodstuff, period.

>>8273012
>Clotted Cream
Is a Devon speciality

Is Somerset.

>>8273183
This is true. As an American I've never even heard of this "Clotted Cream". Clotting is what your blood does when you get a wound and it gets hard to prevent further bleeding. Cream is cream. You don't mix the two.

Clotted cream was about the biggest disappoint of my life. My family was always going on about it, then they finally sent me some. It's just solid milk. It's literally clotted milk.

That would be afternoon/cream tea. High tea aka meat tea is a working class meal. Ironically there's no tea involved.

Cornwall is no different that any other English county when it comes to food.

It's regarded as the home of the Pasty and most bakeries in the South West of England will have their own recipe.

As posted here >>8274572 Devon will fight you for the rights to Clotted Cream and Somerset is without doubt 'Cider Country'.

Cornwall is home to Stargazy Pie and this can be found in many Pubs and restaurants along the Cornish coast.

>>8275148
Seems touristy as fuck, but it looks really good.

>>8275174
It's essentially a fish pie but it does have a lot of full grown Sardines in it (which are called Pilchards in Britain) - it's an oily fish similar to Mackerel.

>>8275189
I'm assuming the full grown sardines are the ones with their heads sticking out of the crust, yeah? Otherwise I think it'd be kind of silly to have whole bony fish just lurking around haphazardly in the pie.

>>8275197
The heads are usually stuck on for decoration but even the full grown Sardines (or Pilchards) have really soft bones that sort of melt when you cook them.

You wouldn't really notice the bones any more that you would from eating a small tin of Sardines.

Ice-cream threads here aren't worth a damn, because icecream made with clotted cream is operating on another level.

Should I buy one at Sainsbury's?

>>8275234
Lidl is cheap as shit for a very good reason. The only things you should buy there are german foods.

If you want clotted cream, buy British.

Where do I get quality English food in Middle America?

>>8275240
Sorry, was thinking the thread was only about cornwall pastries, for some reason.

>>8275250
Even an English company like Greggs do shitty Pasties (great sausage rolls though)

You really have to go to small bakeries in the South West (particularly Cornwall) to get something decent.

>>8275250
You're never going to get a decent pasty from a supermarket. You need to find a bakery.

The Cornish Pasty Co. has shops here and there which do decent pasties. Probably the best you'll get outside the southwest.

>>8275247
Simply put, you don't.

It's been a dream of mine to open an English restaurant in the USA.

I'm just waiting for my lottery numbers to come up.!

>>8275279
The best way to set up an english restaurant in the USA would be to start a proper country pub with a selection of real ales and hearty english working man's food.

The problem is, we like it over here because it's comfort food and a familiar atmosphere. It's alien to americans, so it'd be novelty food that wouldn't seem anything special. You'd probably have to provide chicken tenders, buffalo wings and hotdogs just to appease local palates, because that's the american equivalent of the food we find most homely and comforting.

>>8275279
We have one in Vancouver. They tried to make traditional English dishes but made no effort to source local ingredients except for beer. They don't even make a good roast dinner. To make money they had to put up tvs with American sports and add hamburger sauce and fries to the menu. As a result it's one of the shittest restaurants in Vancouver and they employ rude useless servers. I'd mention the name but one of you might go there out of curiosity and they don't deserve the business

>>8275294
That's a shame.
A bit upsetting to be honest.

>>8275293
yes apart from from the ales, things I have thought of are real scampi in a basket ( Americans think breaded shrimp, or we what call Prawns are legit . .. but we use Langustine/ crawfish tails) or Pork Scratchings, Picked eggs, etc. as nibbles.

Fish and chips; Faggots, mash and peas; Pie chips and beans; etc. for lunch.

In the evening it gets heavier with jugged Hare/Rabbit; Steak and kidney pudding; Venison Pie; etc.

There is a shitload of British dishes that could keep people happy

Well I don't have shit colored skin so I have no desire to visit a tiny little failure of an island that so many people wanted to sailed away from in the last few hundred centuries.

Maybe if you had more to offer than fish sticks and women that piss themselves as national symbols I'd be less likely to create a statement on how fucking smug and wrong you sound, fuckface.

>>8275321
You'd be better off just starting your own country pub in England or Wales. That'd never fly in the states.

West Cornwall Pasty Co. is the place to go if you want a decent-ish pasty outside of Cornwall.

I keep reading conflicting recipes for clotted cream. I get direct heat, indirect heat, no heat, even doing it in the fridge. I see double cream, full cream, single cream, heavy cream (presumably because americans aren't sure what single double and full are). Anyone know the best way to make a classic clotted cream? Sounds like I should double boil some whole milk.

>>8275562
>presumably because americans aren't sure what single double and full are
That's not quite fair. They're largely unaware, but it's not their fault; FDA regulations forbid the sale of double cream or anything heavier, so they're only unaware because they literally can't buy it anywhere.

>>8275574
Well, I wasn't saying it was because they're stupid or anything.

At least you talk some sense my colonial friend.

>>8279006
Yes, but that doesn't necessarily have negative connotations for Americans since most of us are quite sloppy, especially kids and men, who are the primary consumers. And for that segment, eating sloppily implies fun.

"Clotted" connotes "coagulation" and "blood." "Cream" connotes a rich, thick, somewhat effeminate, fatty dairy product. For better or worse, the two words combined together will make most Americans gag a little.

>>8279023
