British Isles Cuisine
The food, baking and table traditions of England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland.
The British Isles share a surprising amount at the table: tea, the oven-baked Sunday roast, a deep baking culture built on flour, butter and dried fruit. Each nation also keeps its own dishes, names and quarrels. Start with a nation, or jump straight into a tradition.
