Does “streaky” mean “uncooked”?
Tasted pretty good to me. Nice combination of chew and crunch.
Bro, you need to define the word “crunch” because … NONE of that looks like it has even the slightest bit of crunch.
Crunchy rind, chewy meat probably. Op probably enjoys their bacon tasting like meat rather that crunchy fire.
Nah, op likes to gnaw on cold rubber for a full minute before being forced to swallow it whole like a pelican.
Ducks would be more accurate
How?
It def had a bit of crunch. It was good. Not as crispy as it would be if I had prepared it (I did not cook this).
In other parts of the world, bacon doesn’t have to be crunchy at all. But then it is also vastly better there, too.
The part of the world this is from has nothing to do with it.
What, does that look uncooked to you? Bizarre
Some people cook their bacon until it’s as rigid and dry as cardboard for some reason.
And others of us cook it until it’s actually done, there is a middle ground ya know. It can be crispy and chewy without being rubbery, slimy, cold garbage like we see here.
Not positive, but I believe other countries often refer to American style bacon as streaky bacon due to the ratio of fat on the slices.
Yeah, there is also back bacon which i prefer
I’m just happy you’re all happy, I guess.
and healthy…hopefully.
My arteries have hardened threefold looking at this
I’m pretty sure my life span was shortened a bit.
When do you cook the bacon?
What exactly is haggis?
You take all of a sheep’s organs, and put them in it’s own stomach, and boil it.
What’s shown looks more like black pudding, though it could be a ground haggis sausage. Black pudding is a blood sausage using the pigs blood and binders like barley.
You take all of a sheep’s organs, and put them in it’s own stomach, and boil it.
If that doesn’t make you hungry, I dunno what will.
Nothing is a more visceral depiction of mankind’s dominance over our environment than stuffing a creature inside itself and cooking it.
Lol, There was a Louis CK bit years ago where he talked about coming across an outdoor market and a bucket of duck vaginas and he had the same sentiment.
Met Louis CK once… Funny horrible guy
Or Turducken, where you’re stuffing a creature into a creature into a creature.
They also had black pudding (tried that before and it’s pretty tasty). This was similar. I don’t know if it was authentic, but it was quite tasty.
It probably is. A closer look it seems like it’s a ground haggis filling. Good stuff.
OK, cool! Very rich and a bit offal-y (which I enjoy). And well spiced. I’m a fan.
The spice melange?
I def tasted clove and coriander seed.
Why do you think the brits conquered the world? If you had to eat un-spiced haggis you’d probably want to do a little slavery and a touch of plunder.
That looks like the haggis we get here in Glasgow.
It’s always looked like that. You mostly see the texture of the oats instead of the pluck.
I highly recommend veggie haggis though. Seriously, it’s good food.
What goes into veggie haggis? I’d definitely try it.
According to McSween’s website, their haggis contains:
Oats, Water, Vegetable Margarine (Palm Oil, Rapeseed Oil, Water, Salt, Emulsifier (E471), Flavouring), Black Kidney Beans (10%), Carrot (5%), Swede (5%), Mushrooms, Red Split Lentils (5%), Rehydrated Onions, Pumpkin Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Salt, Ground Spices.
I assume whole organ haggis has gone out of fashion in most places in favour of the ground sort?
I’m not sure what you mean by “whole organ” haggis. I haven’t seen anything different to what I’ve described in the last 50 years.
The stuff we have still has pluck… The offal, but it’s always minced.
Can you find a picture of it? I’d be really interested in seeing if I can get hold of some to try.
Basically offal cooked in a sheep’s stomach.
And that’s putting it nicely lol 😂🤢
The Irish version of this replaces the haggis with blood sausage 🤢 and the streaky bacon with the much tastier (in my opinion) rasher type bacon.
But besides the bacon the UK and Ireland are a great place for becoming vegan. 🤣
Haggis <3
No egg?
Allergic, unfortunately.
Poor you
It’s cool. I still get to eat lots of tasty things.
Still an awesome plate!
Oof, that looks good.
Baked beans for breakfast is an odd one
Not familiar with English/Scottish breakfast I take it. Wait til you hear about beans on toast.
Hispanics too. Nothing like some scrambled eggs with salsa, some fresh baked pinto beans, a slice of queso fresco, and hot corn tortillas for breakfast.
Ooh that sounds so good. I’m Korean and I don’t think we know what beans are outside of soy beans lol
Did you ever get the rice with the black beans in it growing up? We never ate it, but then I went to a Korean restaurant and they were serving it.
OMG, I completely forgot about that. We never ate it at home, but when I visited family in Korea, we had it every meal. Never cared for it.
Oh and I just remembered red bean paste, love that stuff.
Oh yeah, red bean paste! Mmmm. I want some now, lol.
The powdery rice cakes with the red bean paste in the middle. Yum. Oh how could I forget Chajangmyun! Although that’s Chinese originally. Is that the same black beans as in the rice?
Red beans are tastier though. Queso fresco, a ladle of fried red beans, a sunny side up egg, couple tortillas, half of an avo with a sprinkle of lime juice, salt, and pepper. A cup of strained coffee.
Not my favorite breakfast though, choripan takes the cake for me
I grew up on pintos, but to be honest I can’t seem to taste the difference between red, black, or pintos. I’ve never had good fresh ones, just the canned stuff. Aside from pintos, that is. Always had those fresh.
Same here, but the other way around. Never had fresh pintos, can’t find them where I’m at. Only ever had pintos in chipotle bowls and in english breakfast. Fan of the former, didn’t like the latter.
We get the Bandeja from a Columbian place fairly regularly for breakfast, and it comes with beans and rice. Heavenly.
Beans on toast is peak quick & simple fulfilling food
I thought so too the first time I had a Full English, but it’s really good.
