What could possibly be offensive about putting gravy on a fairly dry bread product? Wtf?

[–] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The only Brits that would whine about that are softy southerners.

Come up North if you like your gravy. Up here it's strong and thick enough that the spoon stands straight up!

Mmm, that's how I make my sausage gravy. Got made fun of by an Appalachian guy for it being like concrete but hey, why not if you've got the meat, right?

Oh lad, if you like your meats and gravy, you should come to the UK and visit Manchester, Liverpool, or York.

Also everyone in the UK over hypes Greggs just because it's such a national institution now but never mention the more tasty Pieminister because it's not as widespread.

Let me know if you're ever around the Peak District and you're more than welcome to join our family for a proper Sunday Roast Dinner with THICC gravy.

Don't worry it's just scones and Yorkshire pudding. Nobody putting gravy on cookies and mousse.

Now make one with Canadians putting gravy on fries and Danes putting gravy on burgers.

Hawaiian also put gravy on burgers over rice and it's a treasure

Is that a bunch of steaming sauce right on the thing used to hold the sandwich or am I mistaking that?

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

Look up loco moco, it's just so wonderful

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Is there a bun on that? If not it's just a Salisbury steak which I assume is the Japanese influence creeping in. Never quite understood why they like hamburger steak so much. I always associate it with frozen dinners.

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

I like Salisbury steak but loco moco def feels different to eat. Hamburger steak usually isn't served with gravy in my experience thus far but Hong Kong has amazing steak with black pepper gravy.

I absolutely will not tolerate gravy fry hate and I'm not even Canadian.

Ketchup is just tomato gravy anyway. A sauce made by thickening a reduction of something high in glutamate with cornstarch. It's more of a gravy than chip beef gravy, which is a more basic roux. Only difference is fat content, but that's why it's paired with mayo.

[–] morbidcactus@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Personally I think of ketchup more like a puréed tomato chutney or relish, it's the style I'd do if I made my own.

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 hours ago

Corn is a fruit, whiskey is ketchup.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

I'd say that's a fruit preserve in that case, so a jam.

Brits who complain about (American) biscuits and gravy have clearly never had (American) biscuits and gravy

Yorkshire pudding is not pudding, it’s crockery.
