My my myy, cucumber sandwiches are just simply divine, don't

I fucked Ted

good thread

>>8397861
I've been incorporating cucumber into all my liquor drinks lately. Cucumber Moscow Mules are wonderful.

>>8397861
Almost as good as a toast sandwich.

For a country that used to be fairly wealthy and pretty important, why is English food so poor?

Why has it taken them the fact they are now to an irrelevance for them to start actually producing good food?

Thank god for multiculturalism.

Are there any other examples of this?

>>8397959
A lot of countries are famous for their peasant food. Brazil for feijoada, American southern cooking has poor people roots, etc.

>>8397959
>Why has it taken them the fact they are now to an irrelevance for them to start actually producing good food?
Try that again English.

>>8397861
Recipe?

>>8398045
Yeah, but other countries also have good food as well.

>>8398051

British food is actually one of the best cuisines out there, its strongest point is that its made out of real and high quality ingredients and does need MSG or poo in loo spices to make it taste good.

Dont get me wrong some american food is of very high quality, but generally speaking its overloaded with salt and flavourings and general imitation flavours.

>>8397945
That's a neat idea, anon.
Sounds refreshing, will try this out soon.

>>8397959
Their historical wealth is why their food culture is limited. The British empire had good ingredients available for the average Joe, good hunks of beef from a nice cut and whatnot, there wasn't a real need to make it taste better. Most recipes come from people making the best of what they had; for example menudo is probably my favorite soup, and it's just an excuse to use tripe

>>8398075
Listen m8, I spent 3 years in Britain and you are talking non sense.

In future, I would suggest you try travelling and experiencing other cuisines before revealing yourself to be an over-patriotic, small-minded idiot.

>>8398093
What is your idea of "making something taste better"?

>>8398095
Not him but for someone who thinks he's open-minded you're jumping to intricate conclusions about an anonymous poster's character very quickly.

>>8398075

>"poo in loo" spices

nigger do you even cook? does India now have a monopoly on Ginger and Cumin that I'm not aware of? Because last time I checked hundreds of countries were using these ingredients to great success

You're just an anally devastated subhuman anglo pissed that everyone is shittalking your food.

>>8398093
I agree with your second point.

Have had some great meals where it was basically mince and potatoes, or really good chunky soups, but this was in someone's home.

In general, their restaurants they are lacking compared to many other countries, which I found strange.

>>8398101
Maybe.

But the line

>British food is actually one of the best cuisines out there, its strongest point is that its made out of real and high quality ingredients and does need MSG or poo in loo spices

reminded me of many idiots I met there, who had never experienced other cultures apart from a 7-day holiday .

>>8398116
Sometimes idiots are right.

>>8398120
But they are clearly wrong.

>>8398132
Maybe if you consider fish and chips and blood pudding the only dishes. I'm pretty sure expensive restaurants offer food that is better than the garbage you get at fast food stalls operated by brown immigrants.

>>8398142
I'm sorry, I think you've misunderstood my point.

Britain does have good restaurants. However, 95% are genuinely terrible.

Th claim "its strongest point is that its made out of real and high quality ingredients" is frankly a joke.

>>8398156
That wasn't me. You said that British food has been bad until immigrants came along. Saying that most restaurants are terrible is something completely different.

Roleplaying, are you OP?

I mean...awww shucks sugarcube, who needs these hoity toity sandwiches when yall could just have an apple? Apples apples apples!

>>8397959
>what was World War 2

>>8398164
The best British food I've had has all been homemade.

The food I've had at restaurants has generally been mediocre, apart from a few cases.

I don't understand why you or anyone else would take this as an insult.

>>8398176
>a 20 perhaps 30 year period destroyed british cuisine forever

>>8398175
I'd rather have boatloads of candy! Circus peanuts, cotton candy - freshly spun - and all sorts of other sticky-wicky yummy-yum treats!

>>8398178
I'm not taking it as an insult at all, I'm just pointing out that I don't think British food is in any way worse than the "multicultural" food you praised.

>>8398188
OK.

But do you not think multiculturalism has helped British food?

I've heard that Tikka Masala is one of your nations favourites and that is clearly derived from Pakistani/indian food

>>8398096
I specifically was talking about situations where people make the best with whatever suboptimal ingredients they may have, stuff like liver pate

>>8398209
I don't know if it has "helped". I'm glad I can buy bananas and I like to eat a kebab every now and then. That's thanks to trade and commerce, not multiculturalism.

>>8397945
Nothing says "I love cock in my ass" like a cucumber in a cocktail but I agree with you

>>8398220
I would disagree. I think multiculturalism is one of the positive things about Britain and it is shown in their food tastes.

>>8398991
America is more like pico de gallo, but not your traditional version.

You start with the tomatoes (The red skinned Indians), then you add the most underrated, but important ingredient, the white onions; keep adding them till almost all the tomatoes are pushed out of the bowl. Then your back is turned a bunch of jalapenos have sneaked in the bowl and mixed themselves in with the onions so they're nearly impossible to remove the ones you don't want. Everything else is misc spices and is relatively unimportant.

This leaves you with a pico de gallo that is mostly onion, and tastes great, but has some other things mixed in as well that compliment the onions. Some times the other ingredients start calling the onions racist, but they didn't ask to be put in the bowl, they were just born there.

>>8401134
Yes. People do actually eat cucumbers and sweet bread.

>>8401150
Er, they make some good tv shows.

Cucumber sandwiches are fucking awesome. Their simplicity is part and parcel to their perfection. They are on the same par as summertime tomato sandwich (a southern staple). Only plebs who think a sandwich has to weigh 5 lbs wouldn't enjoy them.

Vegetarians are dumb dumb dumb, they chase anything that makes them thinner, beginners
And here they come come come, to praise the food that makes them slimmer, shit dinners

>>8401506
What in god's name would make you think I'm a vegetarian? Don't be such a stupid twat. I just finished butchering my own steer last week to fill my freezer and hand out to family members as part of their Christmas gifts. You're an idiot. I bet you're one of those retards who never eats vegetables by themselves, and you'll never know what you're missing. I know good food, and cucumber sandwiches, and tomato sandwiches are GOOD FOOD, especially when they're summer ripe (tomato sandwiches should only be eaten when summer ripe).

>>8397861
Cucumber is my favorite fruit. Its just so light and refreshing. Can't be beat on a turkey sandwich.

>>8401479
Incorrect, kid.

>>8397861
Overrated trash

>>8401479
Exactly correct. I just butchered my deer 2 days ago, but in the summer there's nothing better than a homegrown tomato or cucumber sandwich. I don't, however, cut the crusts off like some prissy britfag.

not bad.

If OP was going to make cucumber sandwiches for real though, I suggest adding a bit of rosemary and thyme. Had it for a small catered event - waaay better than the recipes calling for dill.

Still want to try the English method of using butter instead of cream cheese though, but I don't want to make a bunch of appetizers when I don't exactly socialize.

>>8397945
Make a Pimms with a slice of cucumber and orange, shits delicious and very british.

You are trying to pass a cucumber sandwich off as rich food?

Fuck dude, a cucumber sandwich is basically the essence of poverty. A $0.39 cucumber, a $0.89 loaf of bred, and $0.02 of butter. The most expensive shit on that list is the butter, and if you replace it with margarine you got like a hundred sandwiches for under 10 bucks easily.

How the hell was a cucumber ever an expensive vegetable? They keep like motherfuckers, and I guess super fluffy white bread may have been rare back in the 1200's when Britain was important but goddamn that is a depressingly cheap "Rich people food" item.

Next you will tell me that lobster was marketed to rich people because niggers would dangle a live lobster out of their anus on the freeway for passing motorists to devour on their way to board meetings.

What did he mean by this?

Cucumbers have NEVER been hard to come by. They're one of the easiest vegetables to grow, and were plentiful in the summertime, which is how the sandwich became popular for summertime tea.
Traditionally, you used butter on the bread, not cream cheese, but cream cheese has become popular. Mayo NEVER.
