Ploughman’s Lunch (British Pub Lunch)

This is a Mature Cheddar and Chutney Sandwich, just one of the sandwiches sold under the “Ploughman’s Lunch” heading listed on pub menu’s in Great Britain. Bloomer Bread is a chewy, dense bread that is made with very long rising times to develop the flavor of the wheat and the yeast.

British Fig Rolls – Almost Better Than Shop Bought!

This is a recipe I found many years ago for authentic Fig Rolls, and they are almost better than the shop bought variety, much though I love the commercial ones! Try to roll out the pastry as thinly as possible, other than that, this recipe is a breeze to make. Fig rolls are a much-loved “biscuit” from my childhood days and I make them whenever I can as I now live in France, as we cannot get them here. Fig rolls are great for a mid-morning snack with a cuppa as well as being ideal for school lunchboxes, picnics, gifts and afternoon tea. (I have posted this recipe on Zaar especially for Lalaloula, who asked about a fig roll recipe in the British forum.)

British Mamgus Pancakes

Very light pancakes. The BIG difference between our style of measuring and the British method is that they use a scale to measure ingredients. Since this is a British recipe, please use a scale to measure the flour and sugar or it will not turn out right. Milk can be measured in a measuring cup. From telegraph.co.uk site.
