One of my favorite things about travelling in the UK is the abundance of pubs where for £10 you can get a decent meal and a pint. Usually fish, burgers, various sandwiches, a massive amount of brown things, or disgusting gammon steak, but almost always with your choice of some form of potatoes and peas as a side, mushy or fresh a nice pile of peas is great when you're traveling and not getting as many vegetables as you're used to. E: Sit down, use the Wifi, maybe have another pint and a couple ludicrously tiny and well metered shots of whiskey. It's a great break, and most of those places won't hassle you out like they would in the US, it's like coffee shops here with an actual meal and booze.

I bought some marrowpeas a couple months ago with the intention of trying real mushy peas. If any UK posters want to chime in with a Really Good Recipe I figure it's about time to tackle them.

Good news, I just came here to post this recipe with an absurdly long introduction, in the style of "after the events of 9/11" Do you want a full virtual tour of a North English town prior to your recipe for authentic mushy peas? Well you're in luck!

Oh, how could I forget the staple of British cuisine, a "curry" that's just beef stew with a bottle of curry powder dumped in? Doesn't taste terrible, does not taste like Indian or Thai curries.

Did you have a problem you'd like to explain to the class about people using things differently or is this just being mad about things. There's a lot to be potentially mad about, colonization, appropriation, etc. but you're just kind of hanging a wet sock out of the window here.

Ah yes, "doesn't taste terrible" the most scathing of insults towards British Cuisine, that I was only able to dream up after hours of rage-intensified introspection. E: I was directing all my internalized criticism and rage at the British colonization of India, and the follow-on issues it's caused, like the ongoing conflict in Kashmir, at that first post where I said that the ubiquitous British pub fair known as curry was just ok, and surprising to someone who grew up with Thai and Indian dishes being synonymous with the term "Curry." I offer my deepest apologies. Elviscat has a new favorite as of 05:00 on Mar 24, 2021 |

Interpretation can taste nice without regard to the initial intention of the original dish. Curry chips is obviously not an original imitation of aloo matar.

You are reading so much into that post. Here is a delicious dish that was made through cultural fusion, Seattle-style Teriyaki, nothing like the original Japanese dish, but full of savory, sweet, and umami flavors it's one of my favorite things in the world. It's hard to find a "proper" rendition outside the US's West Coast.  Always served with the same, sad side salad, mostly iceberg lettuce with a hint of cabbage and carrot shredded on top, in a nice ginger dressing.

as a resident of the greater Seattle area, I live off of this, because it's impossible to throw a rock and not have it bounce off of 5-6 teriyaki places My favorite is a place in Kirkland WA (Izumi) that's actually a sushi / Japanese restaurant, but they do a salmon teriyaki that is beyond words. Just thinking about it and I'm drooling, it's ridiculously good.

I can appreciate good sweet/savory combos, but teriyaki is almost uniformly way too far into sweet territory for me. Also, even though my Mom's English I do not believe I have ever had mushy peas. Mint is good in peas, and she just about always throws a sprig of fresh mint in with the peas or red/white/new potatoes and it works well. She has a poo poo-ton of mint growing in planters on the back deck, so it's kind of easy and always completely fresh.

 Given the way the bowl kept dripping after all the dogs were out, the most offensive thing about this could be that the hot dogs were boiled in advance.

uber_stoat posted:we don't really have those kind of peas in the states so it's an unfamiliar sight and i guess people like to make fun of things that seem weird to them. we have our own version of this kind of thing. i have personally devastated a can of this stuff after mixing it with rice, garnish with hot sauce. Refried beans are a similar concept, yet far, far superior to mushy peas.

Elviscat posted:Good news, I just came here to post this recipe with an absurdly long introduction, in the style of "after the events of 9/11" I’m pleasantly surprised that this recipe is correct! But you don’t have to take your peas that far, to the almost pea purée stage. You can also cook them until they’re just tender and falling apart, but still mostly whole in a soup of their own juices. Both are correct, the latter is the version that you can get pea wet from. Do. Not. Add. Mint. Refried beans (known as mushy beans from hereon) are also great. Textural differences are good and exciting, that’s why mashed potatoes and pumpkin/celeriac/cauliflower purées exist in fancy cooking.
