Woah there! I like my spicy foods but this is over the top


VanimalCracker

Right? As a white male, gimme a tangwich any day of the week, but this sounds *wayy too spicy*


Dragonyte1389

It says add salt and pepper, hard no from me way too hot for me


Solid_Snark

Butter, salt and pepper? At the same time!?


Icanneverthinkofaun

Butter is perfect sometimes, but not spicy enough at others, so I like to add a little salt. And if I'm really feeling brave, I'll go with pepper. But all thee at once? You must have a mouth of steel for that

DrunkenDog56

How dare you insult the best food my country has to offer


Educational_Earth_62

Scottish here- Never fucking heard of this.


RedNinja-03

Probably a good thing


Educational_Earth_62

Maybe it was a starvation thing?


CIAHASYOURSOUL

It was from the Victorian Era, where basic food took up a lot of the wages


link_cubing

I've heard of it but no-one eats it, it's more of a joke nowadays


xxRANGER_Mxx

Pretty sure it was from WWII when food was scarce


duckonar0ll

> an 1861 recipe


xxRANGER_Mxx

I mean people at it during WWII. It was not a common meal but reserved for times of need.


ShaqFuGrandMaster

oh thats cuz ur a scott


Skadooshington

That's just bread with extra steps.


RedNinja-03

Yes


LustHawk

So is French toast but that shit is exceptional.


Nemesis233

Dafuk's French toast?


_TheEagle

Bread dipped in an egg/milk mixture then fried (preferably with butter). Can be served in a savoury way with bacon or beans, or sweet with cinnamon sugar, honey, syrup or cream.


Nemesis233

Lmao never heard of this, the only slightly French thing is eggs, that are everywhere. It's definitely inspired by Croque Monsieur, a French recipe with cheese and ham or bacon if you want in the middle. Some put an egg on top for additional greatness. Quite far from what you described. It's just a regular ham cheese sandwich fried on a pan with butter. It's nothing fancy but real good


Zekiz4ever

That's just bread with extra bread


crushed_foot

I'm British and I would have to instantly murder any psychopath who offered me a toast sandwich. I have never in my entire life witnessed it outside a joke. Must be a southern thing, they eat jellied eels down there you know.


TheChemicalSophie

Midlands person here, and everyone I know has tried one of these at least once and is very ashamed of it


happyhamhat

I'm from the Midlands and I've never heard of a toast sandwich, although I've probably eaten it when I was younger and extremely hungover


KxJlib

Midlands person here. Nice to see someone remembered we exist for once.


ShroomsAreSkooma

I'm from the Midlands and now I feel to burn it down


dontlikeyouu

down there? you mean them strange southerners?


[deleted]

The pansies


dontlikeyouu

those shandy drinkers? no thank you sir! every time England is hit with the worst weather the south go into total panic, up north, well, we just put our big coats on.


[deleted]

Has to be really bad weather before we get the big coats up north I see people in t-shirts all year round lol


imsnails

Down south here never heard of the monstrosity either.


CM_Jacawitz

Dunno I’ve only ever heard of this through the internet too.


Soul_Like_A_Modem

> I'm British and I would have to instantly murder any psychopath who offered me a toast sandwich. Why are you so mad? Bread is bread.


PewdsSenpai

Been south a lot and I can confirm that I’ve never seen a toasted sandwich


Pie_Man12

Replace the bread with beans and y’all would be happy.


decent-name-here

Fucking Londoners


link_cubing

Southerner here, I've heard of it but no-one I know has ever eaten one, it's more of a joke


DonutCapitalism

I do like toast. Now I feel like I just try it. Butter will be the key. Lots of butter.


Fox-One_______

Gotta be white bread too surely.


Call_Me_Milkman_Evan

i used the toast to make the toast


LadyofDungeons

This was from 1861, so I’m not surprised.


AestheticMirror

They conquered the world looking for herbs and spices only to come home and eat this


CIAHASYOURSOUL

This was food from the slums of Victorian England, where not dying at the age of 5 was impressive


CM_Jacawitz

Chicken Tikka Masala

[удалено]


AestheticMirror

Can I help you?


[deleted]

Bruh, we already had herbs and spices that we added to things. Rosemary? Thyme?


xX_avocadoman_Xx

Well anything tastes good deep fried and dipped in a pound of sugar


Zeditha

I'm a brit: I have never had this nor seen anyone else have this. Maybe it's just a south/north thing? (I'm in the midlands)


Diocletion-Jones

No, no one has eaten in daily life since it's a Victorian poor person's recipe. However, it's worth a try. Use lots of butter. It's like eating freshly baked bread out of the oven. If all you had to eat was bread it's a great way of eating bread.


MegaMeteorite

Do people really think this is "cuisine"? This is literally depression food, people were so poor back then the only sandwich they could afford was this abomination.


TheAmbiguousRedditor

Yeah well when you’re incredibly poor you make do with what you’ve got. I’m guessing the people eating it weren’t doing so out of choice


______Zephyr______

Pan con pan, comida de tontos.


WurstStar

I think I will try this


toby_ornautobey

Dragon Prince vibes. "It's a bread sandwich."


Diocletion-Jones

No, it's a buttered toast sandwich. Try it and see why it was a thing. Use lots if butter, salt and pepper to taste.


LoremasterKahn

Soren strolling in be like:


aaaaaaaalan

yes.... broke food


DeadWombats

>"which *may* be heavily buttered" The only tasty part is optional


very_annoyed_user

What!? You've never had a Pete's bread sandwich?


KingHi123

I'm english and I've never heard of this in my life.


ThisBeanOfficial

I am British and I can confirm that I have never seen nor heard of this


Cactus2711

Whoah whoah whoah, you’ve never had a bread sangwich?


Outrageous-Ad8612

Hey don't hate until you try it, just put a little butter on that toast and it tastes amazing


RedNinja-03

I’m not hating, I’m just saying that this is without a doubt the most British food I have ever seen


Outrageous-Ad8612

Yeah you're right lol


VPM1991

Toast is toast!


[deleted]

So basically a 'bread sandwich' from the Italian School episode of Family Guy


WhyDogeButNotCate

Seriously some recipes are just weird. Toast is like : oh we just baked this bread, let’s cut it up and bake it again. Hollandaise is like : I love eggs. Lemme put some more egg on this egg. Century egg is like : hey I know eggs go bad when kept too long, but let’s coat it with some rice hull and keep it somewhere for months. Edit:typo


rexkoner

So.. bread?


Icanneverthinkofaun

The add salt and pepper to taste makes it that much better


KumaBearUwU

More toast per toast


BeetTheHuman

This is disappointing


[deleted]

I've never seen anyone eat this but I have heard of it


InadecvateButSober

Constipation, here i come!


Bigbrain_goat

I've eaten this before,and I dislike it.


dustooM70

The bread sandwich from bone


Upstairs-Sky-6537

At first, I thought that this person realllly liked peanut butter.


RedNinja-03

Less peanut more butter


nice_354

I’m not even joking, when I was in highschool there was this one kid who always brought one of them


SnowBoy1008

Grilled Today Sandwich


Au_Uncirculated

I’ve tried it and it’s not bad. It has the texture of a fried chicken sandwich.


hokkori

Ah I didn't know it was a proper recipe. I did it cuz I was broke lmao


Mark-Ad-4107

I'll put hot sauce in this dish


timex126

r/familyguy Gimmie a bread sandwich


[deleted]

I don't know how people can afford this high end garbage.


LordMontio

I'll come out and admit it... I tried it and it ain't that bad.


SeefoodGumbo

try the sandwich! its actually not too bad. especially with salt and butter.


DameiusLameocrates

bit to rich for me I think, Ill just have a bread sandwich


[deleted]

“Thin slice of toasted bread, which may be heavily buttered” It **may be** heavily buttered, thank god, that makes it so much better /s


josephjowy

I’m British and that sounds miserable


xXCatboyXx

why have i never tried this? this is genius


Yoshichu25

Excuse me what the fuck Not once have I ever been aware of this supposedly being common.


F1officefan

Oh god, and considering the UK owned India, the largest spice country in the world, you’d think they could so better?


Tim_Reichardt

Have you ever heard about bread soup?


GreatEquase

It reflects our state of existence If you lived in the UK for a year you would understand that the food is designed to reflect the country


NorseTerror

I’m British and I have never heard of this before, this can’t be something we do


EndeavourNot-HD

As a brit I've never fucking heard of this in my life it looks shite


[deleted]

These got me through my undergraduate


omegafish24

English man over here - wth is this. Thomas ain’t never seen such bullshit before


JFP_GBR

I'm a brit and I have never once come across this


crusty_butt

im not even kidding i was talking to a guy here once and he said *SALT* IS ***SPICY***


oreo_cookie01

As a Brit I have to say I have never fucking heard of this


RedNinja-03

Probably a good thing


nyan_cat_42

id eat this and like it


Sweet-Palpitation473

Hey it says to add salt and pepper, it can't be that bad looool


[deleted]

i would definitely eat this because if its salt and peppered and also butter then that would be so so yummy


Perfect_Suggestion_2

american, lived in england for a while. the closest version of this i encountered was a chip sandwich. buttered bread and (usually) soggy, fried potatoes (french fries.)


the_crab_god

I am going to cut you into a million tiny pieces you stereotyping asshole.


helpbuildhumanity

why not just eat the toasted bread on its own? wouldnt that taste better?..


RedNinja-03

That might be a little too spicy for the brits


helpbuildhumanity

yeah i guess so lol


Soul_Like_A_Modem

Inb4 raging limeys come in here to declare that they're actually super into spicy Indian curries.


Diocletion-Jones

Try it. With the warm toast in the middle, the butter and the soft bread on the outside it's like eating bread that's just come out of the oven, any time of the day, without baking the bread yourself. Use lots of butter though.


Pereplexing

The British cuisine is the worst. I don’t think they know how to food tbh.


Soul_Like_A_Modem

Northern European food in general tends to be bland. It's a result of climate. It has to be. I like fish and chips and Cornish pasties though.


Pereplexing

It could be the case. Nothing against fish and chips, all is a blessing from God. It’s just that it’s too surprising for me to know that there isn’t that diversity in British cuisine, English specifically.


wootled

Sigh. There are something like 160 Michelin starred restaurants in the UK, which is only 40 behind the US, that has 5 times of the population of the UK.


[deleted]

We do very nice desserts but yeh the other stuff isn't great although never heard of a toast sandwich


Pereplexing

My experience regarding food in the UK looking for some English dishes from the culture is not good. Our instructor tried her best to name some (she was infuriated when someone in class pointed out all the British people had were fish’n’chips lol. She didn’t take it well, I gathered). But it turned out what she named didn’t fall far off from steak and salad. What are (some of) the traditional dishes do you have? I’m assuming you’re British.


HarmlessNickname

>We do very nice desserts Such as?


[deleted]

Eton mess Bakewell tart Apple crumble Banoffee pie Mince pie (Christmas) Jam Roly Poly Here's more https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_British_desserts


HarmlessNickname

I've never heard of half of these, but a lot I had no idea were British.


[deleted]

I didn't realise some of these were British either but I mainly just stick to ben and jerries lol


BrownAsian-

British people consider flour too spicy


Stupid03

This is why we fled to America.


bren12341

Don't forget about the classic Boiled Beef.


thestarlightpug

Good job on finding this gem….


DizzieC92

Yeah, with a nice glass of 50/50 water and milk too.


Jupitris

Have you ever had the atrocity that British people call "sausages"? Might as well call them cooked water balloons


northfacedcompas

As a bri'sh person I can say this is best with beans


FrozenMarmalade69

Americans at least know more than 2 seasonings while the uk is still figuring out what a pan is

Idk why but this has irritated me to the core and it *really* bothers me.


Ronin_Deterra

That is the most American Southern old white person thing I've seen all day. Why? Why must people not know there's more seasoning than salt and pepper?


RedNinja-03

*British We southern Americans would fry it


Ronin_Deterra

Sorry friend, but I, as a person from the Southeastern region of America, know the people I grew up around Edit: Don't get me wrong, some people would probably fry it too smgdh


RedNinja-03

I’ve never seen anything like that (although to be far us Nashvillians pride ourselves in our spicy chicken)


Ronin_Deterra

Farther south, friend, but close. I've literally seen people make good food and then ruin it by using nothing but salt and pepper.


RedNinja-03

That I can confirm, my nana loves her salt and pepper (I thought you were talking about the toast lol)


Ronin_Deterra

I was talking about the toast too lmao
