    You can make the sausages extra skinny by taking the skins off and grilling the meat inside. That'll let more fat escape.

    You have to make your own yorkshire pudding, it's the best.

    Yorkshire puddings are the best. Savory with a roast or just cold with jam!!

    The same batter is used for toad in the hole!

    I haven't used this recipe but Delia is the goddess of Traditional Cooking. She's been a TV cook for donkeys years!!

    Oh yes! That's a must-do! You must also try some hot donuts at the seaside too. Yummy scrummy!
    Especially when they are still hot and a bit greasy!

    OMG I want them NOW.

  • He is from Blackpool, so that's what I'll see most of but he says he wants to take me to a few different places as a tourist since I've never been... but he said to make sure to try NOT to look like a tourist! hahaha ... I think I may try a different dish each week. So this may be a weekly thread!

    We found a recipe in The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook for bangers that taste like proper English bangers, and to make them healthier we use turkey burger for the regular hamburger and use 90% lean ground pork. DH really liked them. PM me if you'd like the recipe. Yorkshire pudding is delicious homemade, with gravy. We're going to visit the ILs in Ssptember and DH has already put in his requests for proper bacon sannies, frozen Toad in the Hole, mushy peas, Kronnenburg 1664s, and orange squash. LOL!

    I have only been to Blackpool once and that was a 'flying visit'. I have heard it is a good night out though - or should I say weekend - very popular for hen / stag nights!
