Hello everyone!
I am really sorry it took so long to write the roundup, but I don’t even find time to write my own blog these days… So I decided, instead of wasting more time in order produce something very well put together, with real commentary under each submission, I would just present each of the contestants and make YOU work harder by reading each person’s entry. This way they will get some traffic too!
When I chose “Eating for England” as a read for CTB I was hoping that all the “mysterious” foods and dishes described in it would provoke our readers/cooks to research, but also discover British cooking. As you will see from the roundup all entries were extremely yummy and most of us discovered new favourite flavours. So enjoy the feast below and hopefully we will have a winner soon!
Glennis from Cantbelieveweate made a mango fool.
Beth from Seventh Level of Boredom made a soft boiled egg for the first time in her life as well as treacle tart.
Claudia from Honey from Rock made sticky toffee pudding
Andreas from Delta Kitchen made lemon and basil pasta
Wendy from Celiacs in the House made a gluten free sticky ginger cake
Heather from Girlichef made fish and chips
Simona from Briciole made digestive biscuits and Chesire cheese
Joanna from Eats well with others made chicken Tikka Masala
Natahya from Living in the kitchen with Puppies made an Amaretto Syllabub
Rachel from The Crispy Cook made Pickled Onions for her Ploughman’s Lunch
Deb from Kahakai Kitchen made a Thirty minute fish supper
Finally me, Jo from Foodjunkie, made Perfect Scones













I am going to check out the pickled onions… great idea
All looks good
I also focused on those pickled onions! Though, everything looks great!
What a cool array for our Britishy spread! Great job everyone. I myself am finding a tummy rumble over the digestive biscuits and mango fool!
Nice round-up.
I agree that the pickled onions somehow snare one’s attention.
Thanks, Jo. I must admit, I am partial to scones: I have always been. I am also intrigued by the names of some desserts, like fool and syllabub.
Everything looks and sounds amazing to me…like reading the book all over again! I could have used some of those pickled onions w/ my fish & chips!! And a bit of treacle tart…and syllabub…and mango fool….for dessert
Everything looks delicious and inspired! Thanks for the great pick, Jo!
What a beautiful collection of food pics. So glad I joined all of you for this one.
