traditional english cooking and cheese

[Anonymous No.15414427]

lately ive been feeling like i would enjoy having food thats a little bit more traditional, more in line with what people prior to me in my country used to eat. ive also quite fancied eating cheese on for my dinner, but the only way ive ever had cheese like that is on crackers, melted on toast, or in a sandwich with of all things, salad cream. what ways do you enjoy your cheese, and where can i look for traditional british cooking from before the world wars? it seems to me like the world wars basically destroyed most of british culture beyond what the surviving portion of the nation was able to preserve through the rationing era and the cultural subversion from london.

English cooking before WW2 was just a ploughman's lunch and roasts.

And curries with mild spicing, not Eastern style

Traditional British food is just meat and two veg.

Traditional British food is dead. Eels used to be the core of British food. Now no one eats eels and you can hardly find them in stores. British eels are all exported to Spain. Raw milk Stilton has become illegal due to retarded hygienists in governments and you only find the tasteless pasteurized variants (although there are bootleg raw milk variants). Hell Britain used to have frog legs dishes before the French did but it died out.

Eels were never the 'core'. They were a staple in London as there were lots in the thames. The rest of the country ate more agricultural meat, mainly tough/cheap cuts of pork and beef, and lots of dairy and seasonal veg.

Traditional English food is nutritious but cheap ingredients cooked simply to let the flavours shine though. Pigs trotters, pork knuckle, head cheese, tripe, all the offal, river fish, cheeses. Bit of salt, few garden herbs, pickles, root veg, seasonal ale on the side.

WW2 rationing didn't destroy british cuisine. It has just always been like that.

Anglo cuisine is purely utilitarian.
