 Baked
beans, bangers and mash, black pudding, Yorkshire pudding,
fish and chips, steak and kidney pie, bread and butter,
suet pudding, jam roly poly . . . the list is almost
endless. Great British foods and don't forget regional
delicacies like Welsh faggots or Scottish haggis.
British
food at its most sublime! That's the way it used to
be . . . with tinned fruit and artificial cream on a
Sunday, and don't forget you had to eat bread and butter
with it or you might be ill from all that fruit.
Since
those heady days British food, or perhaps to put it
more correctly the British way of eating has changed
beyond all recognition. We now boast many of the world's
great chefs and many fine restaurants. Living in the
UK is no longer a culinary desert, with more and more
people learning to enjoy the delights of good food.
And now with our supermarkets stocking the more exotic
and exciting ingredients, that were at one time only
found in the realm of the chef, many of us are turning
back to improving our own cooking skills. The upshot
of all this is the mushrooming of cooking schools all
around the UK, teaching from the beginner to the experienced
amateur that wants to cook like the professional chef.
