>The tradition in England of fish battered and fried in oil may have come from Jewish immigrants from Spain and Portugal. Originally, Western Sephardic Jews settling in England as early as the 16th century would have prepared fried fish in a manner similar to pescado frito, which is coated in flour then fried in oil. Charles Dickens mentions "fried fish warehouses" in Oliver Twist (1838), and in 1845 Alexis Soyer in his first edition of A Shilling cookery for the People, gives a recipe for "Fried fish, Jewish fashion", which is dipped in a batter of flour and water.

It's just really fatty fish with some chips, nothing special about it. It's nice when you're ad the harbor and get some fresh fish but it's still just soaked in fat.

England has been majority Semetic genome for 2 - 3 millennia at this point. No use bringing up the obvious in this day and age. Anglos, similar to Americans, have a fever for culinary theft to supplement their distinct lack of culture.

Now that's just wrong, at least in the US past, in fact it was quite the opposite. The rich were fat and the poor and middle class had very little body fat and were mostly muscle. It was only after WWII when that began to change in the US. Now, the only rich fucks who are obese are those who lack self control and are self-centered gluttons in more than just food, one of which has already been identified itt.

Idk I like it. Fried fish, french fries, tartar sauce, and malt vinegar is a really tasty meal especially if you have a few brewskis to go with it.

I'm not british but I totally understand the appeal. It's not a complicated dish. It's not good for you. There's nothing really super exciting going on flavor wise, but by god does that kind of food hit the spot sometimes.

It's also really easy to replicate anywhere else in the world(inb4 some britfag tells me "no u hav to come to england 4 fish n chips m8 innit".

You have to remember fat was not exactly cheap like it is now. That's why people use to collect and reuse oil from the pan. The Jews sold the fish as a form of fastfood before refrigeration. Since they couldn't just keep the raw fish fillets lying around they would just fry all of them and the batter would protect the fish while it sat there waiting for someone to buy them. They probably give it a second fry when you bought one if they were feeling generous. Btw they probably didn't keep the fish overnight and only sold what they bought or caught that day.
