Recently we went to the South in the US and had our eyes opened to a bunch of amazing new foods, but there was one thing that we really wanted to introduce to people back home! So we got the help of a London-based cook from the South, and brought authentic Biscuits and Gravy to a British High School!

I've lived here in the UK for a few years, and let me tell you, these people are adorably obsessed with their beans on toast. It's actually what we would call "pork and beans" out of a can. And the grocery stores have a huge selection of canned beans for just that purpose. I have tried it, but I am sorry to say, I am NOT impressed.

The confusion about the nomenclature for American biscuits comes from the dish’s history. Biscuits are a modernized version of hard tack, which people in the American frontier called “biscuits.” They called it that because (like an English biscuit and biscotti) hard tack is baked twice. American frontier people’s used this as a method to preserve it. One would typically make a large quantity of biscuits/hard tack and then soften it with a liquid or sauce when ready to eat. This method of preserving and preparing biscuits/hard tack is what developed into the dish Biscuits and Gravy.

I am a Southern American. Some years ago I met a British man online who was horrified at the idea of putting gravy on biscuits when I mentioned it. I tried to explain what American biscuits and sausage gravy are but he was still skeptical. I promised to make it for him if we ever met in person, and long story short I eventually did just that. Now, we've been married for almost ten years. I'm sure he married me for the biscuits and gravy.
@typerexc Рік тому
Bet it was more than that. You showed conviction, and prevailed against skepticism. Truth wins out. :)
@djg5950 Рік тому
Awesome. When an American can convince a skeptical Brit to try something that sounds so unappealing as sausage gravy (aka chopped up ferret) and biscuits and they find that it tastes better than it looks they can't do anything but ask you to marry them, LOL ! I'm not a Southerner but do like gravy and biscuits. Although, I prefer chicken fried chicken w/gravy or make my own version of SOS using white gravy and chicken on toast. Never cared for the taste of chipped beef (we had that growing up as kids). Too salty so I substituted leftover cooked chicken.

I mean traditionally biscuits were made over a fire at the backend of a wagon in a cast iron skillet. They would eat it with butter, or jam. They would also eat it with a milk gravy with the leftover meat from the night before. Which is now quite preferable with ground sausage with dashes of onion and garlic powder. Then add milk, on a medium temp then as it heats slowly lower. Once it's at a low bubbling add flour and ground black pepper. Stir on low until the gravy thickens. I like thick gravy so I add more flour.
