British regional foods

[Bleakhouse1879]

I am fortunate to live in a part of Britain that has some wonderful local delicacies, such as

Black pudding
tripe
black peas
sticky toffee pudding
butter pies.

It is my mission to sample as many varieties of regional fayre from around Britain as possible. What local delicacies do you have in your area and have you tried them?

Bleakhouse, yes I guess it's similar. Samphire looks a little more appetising and probably sounds more posh but it does have a sea salty taste.

Oh you should try southwold butter buns mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Bridies
Wallaces pies
Mealie puddings

Betty's do chocolate Orange fat rascals now. They're amazing!

Not in my area because I am American and I live in Florida, but I love Scottish morning rolls. Preferably stuffed with bacon.

Pork pies

Stilton cheese

Chitterlings

Haslet

Chips and gravy

Lea and perrins
Asparagus
Too many fab ales to list

The samphire talk also reminded me of Laverbread.

Oh and I grew up in an area with oatcakes. But the flat pancakey type, served warm with melted cheese and bacon. Omg.

Lardy cake, Mothering Sunday buns and fritters.

Stotties, singin' hinnys, carlins, peas pudding, pikelets, fluffets ...

Chipsticks
Red pudding, white pudding, fruit pudding
Battered pizza
Deep fried mars bars
Moray Cup
Butteries
Softies
Lemon sole
Sticky toffee as well (local hotel claims they invented it!)
Skirlie
Clootie dumpling with milk

Also, fizzy bubblegum juice. I've never found that anywhere else yet.

Stargazy pie (thus giving away where I live in one fell swoop) is well known a few mile away, other than that fish, fish, and more fish. We can, when we fancy fish, go and buy it straight from the boat.

PuppyMonkey Have you had chitterlings and if so was it nice? I've never had it but I want to try it

Panakelty.
Stottie. It's just a big breadcake, but is best served generously filled with cheese savoury.

If Booths descends as far south as Chorley, they sell Samphire.

Parmo - I'm yet to have it but it's basically a staple on every menu
Pan Haggerty - love this, great comfort food
Stotties - which are basically giant buns
Pease pudding - which many swear is nice, I don't believe them
Loads of lovely regional cheeses - Northumberland cheese co are great
Fab gin - Jack Cains Northumberland gin is my favourite gin.

We also have an award winning vineyard that makes English Sparkling wine. I think I might win based on that. Cheers
