I used to hear jokes about English food. Is Britain really a gourmet desert?

Some people say that it seems that the British don't think much about eating this aspect. The food is very simple, that is, fried fish, fried potatoes and bread, and I will get used to it in the long run. For breakfast, cereal is the most, just soak it in cold milk. If it weren't for the dry slices of bread covered with butter and jam, fry an egg. Just have a raw vegetable salad or a cold sandwich for lunch. For dinner, a large piece of meat is fried in an oven or a pan. In fact, the British themselves occasionally make fun of their sloppy food. Compared with the exquisite and rich variety of delicacies in China, the food in Britain is really single.

A complete English lunch that the British are proud of, and you will know the answer. Two fried eggs, two pieces of bacon, a few small mushrooms, a pile of baked beans, two pieces of fried tomatoes and two pieces of toast. Roast beef with York pudding, fish and chips, minced potato pie, pudding sausage, fried chocolate bar and so on can be regarded as very authentic recipes in Britain. They grew up eating like this from their childhood habits, and their habits became natural. The British also love junk food such as potato chips and chicken nuggets, which are called "super-processed food" in Britain. These junk foods, together with sausages, bread and cheese, basically constitute the whole British table.

English curry is also good. After so many years in England, I can't get tired of eating two things, Pizza and curry. Except Indian curry, the improved British curry not only retains 8% of the flavor of Indian curry, because continental breakfast only has toast, butter and jam. The English breakfast is incredibly rich, including fried bacon, fried sausage, fried eggs, potato cakes, baked beans with tomatoes, two pieces of toast with butter, and it is delicious with English black tea or coffee. People have no interest in their own food, which leads to their willingness to accept and try foreign food culture. On the other hand, in areas with profound local food culture, such as Guangzhou in China, it takes some time to buffer the acceptance of foreign food habits.
