Mike, could not have had a worse couple of weeks mate, but it happens,,, so yes I am,,

Why what has happened?

Do you want to know what a 'worse' couple of years sounds like?

[mike11111]

My favourite recipe is an old Geordie one: Poisson accompagné par les pommes de terre frites, aussi les pois 'mushy'.

Hoggs Pudding. A good devon dish

[Bobbisox]

oooh Jan I thought it was native to here only, I do too


Prudie,,, err what is knobs?
and 237 tell me what this is please

[welshlibranr]

how do you make panackelty Bobbi!.................like the name, no idea what it is!...........

[lardhelmet]

Bobbi - think its a long pastry thing with a meat pasty sort of mixture in one end and your pudding in the other. Guess you have to make sure you label which end to bite into first!

[Jan1957]

My grandparents were geordies Bobbi, from South Shields, my nan used to make it so that's why I like it.

[237SJ]

Hoggs Pudding is a bit like haggis but it`s made with pork and looks like a big sausage. My mum used to make it when my dad killed a pig. It has pearl barley in and is fried. It`s quite nice with lots of pepper and salt.

[Prudie]

Dorset Knobs - a savoury biscuit thing

[mike11111]

Panackelty is basically the remains of Sunday lunch fried up on Monday. In some areas of he NE it is also known as a 'caad waam up'. Bobbi will translate.
