I love mustard. I love yellow mustard, brown mustard, spicy mustard, and sweet mustard. I am convinced that everything tastes better with mustard. This summer I went to Australia with the reserves and had possibly the best mustard ever. It was in a plastic tub and labeled "spicy English mustard" (hand written label). I put a small dab on whatever I was eating and OH MY GOD. The spiciest mustard I have ever tried. My sinuses were cleared instantly and my eyes would not stop watering. I couldn't get enough. Alas, though I have searched far and wide, I have not found anything in the states that compares. I make do with grey poupon, but I have to use a ton of it. I know theres got to be some mustard lovers here. Recommend me some stuff to try. |

Look for Colemans English Mustard in your local grocery store. That's the stuff you are looking for. We used to have it on roast beef for Sunday dinner at my grandparents when I was growing up. We have it here in Georgia so should be available elsewhere. ETA: I'm English and the Aussies stole it from us

That's the ticket right there...Oh, the memories

That looks yummy! Whats all there? |
Not all things the British call pudding is really pudding and not all things the British call bread (sweetbreads) is really bread. You have been warned.

fucking bastards! Now I am hungry! this is some damned good mustard too  Woebers |

I remember the first time I had Colemans. I was at my grandparents for Sunday dinner and I liked the colour of the mustard, so I put a huge pile of it on my roast beef. I cut off a piece of beef along with a disproportionately large amount of mustard to go with it. I chomped right into that beef and the gates of hell opened in my mouth I learned the meaning of moderation right there.

Nice! I'll have to run out tonight and try to find it. |
In hell the cooks are British!!! |
Funny you say that as I just spoke to a friend of mine recently who is from India and lives in NJ. He recently did a 4 day stopover in London on his way to India to visit family and he said the Indian food in England is even better than the stuff he has back in India. I had the same comment from some people I worked with on projects here that went on vacation to England and they loved the food. You really have to stay away from the touristy restaurants in London to get decent food. ETA: He stayed in Ware, which is not too far outside of London, and said all the places he ate around there were great. |

yes thanks. I ended up looking it up and found that  popover |
Not too far from me. Interestingly, the days about British cooking and the bad jokes are old news. The state of cooking and quality of restaurants is first rate these days. You've only got to look at the list of the worlds top restaurants to see this. Besides, the British public are very adventorous when it comes to eating. It's all good |
| I am originally from Harlow, so I knew a few of the places he went to, but as I haven't lived there in 15 years things have changed. I visit fairly regularly and the food is great. I went to East 1 in Highbury the last time I was there, and the food was great. My wife is American and loves English food and even though she only lived there for 9 months with me she misses it a lot. |
Indian Food is the operative word - not British Cuisine.

Chicken Tikka Masala is not an Indian dish, it was invented in England
