Hetalia characters with dishes typical for their country - part 1 (part 2 here)
Italy: Maritozzo (cream bread) -> This Roman milk bread is said to be dated back to times of Ancient Rome. The baked good is filled with generous amounts of whipped cream and somtimes decorated with fruit or pistachio. Young man also used it in courtship by hiding jewellery or a ring in the filling.
Germany: Breze(l) mit Schokolade (chocolate dipped pretzel) -> A baked pastry with sweet or salty toppings, best known for its distinctive symetrical, knotted shape. Dipped in chocolate the soft pretzel is a popular snack at funfairs and markets, but there are also small, crispy pretzels that are to be eaten like crisps/chips.
Japan: 和菓子 (wagashi; plant based sweet) -> Originally meaning "Japanese confectionery" the term now refers to a traditional dessert made from plant based ingredients. It's artful shapes are influenced by season, nature, or even poetry.
France: Quiche Lorraine -> A savoury tarte traditionally made with a filling of eggs, heavy cream, ham, and bacon. Today cheese is often added, though it is controversial among professionals. (In the drawing there seems to be leek added too which is not mentioned in the original recipe either.)
England: Scotch Egg -> Supposedly inspired by the Indian nargisi koftas, this dish consists of a hard-boiled or soft-boiled egg wrapped in pork (sausage meat) which is coated in breadcrumbs and then baked or deep-fried. Often served in pubs and a popular cold snack as well.
America: Hamburger -> A popular fastfood consisting of a patty (traditionally made from ground beef) between two halfs of a sliced bun. There are countless variations made with all kinds of additional ingredients and condiments, including expensive high-end versions with edible goldflakes.
Russia: пирожки́ (Pirozhki; stuffed bread) -> This popular street food is a baked good made from yeast-dough is typically boat-shaped and filled sweet or savory with meat, vegetables, fruit, jam or tvorog (an Eastern European fermented milk product with a consistency similar to curd cheese)
China: 小籠包 / 小笼包 (Xiaolongbao; steamed bun) -> Steamed dumplings made from leavened or unleavened dough traditionally filled with minced pork, traditionally eaten for breakfast. The top of the dumpling is closed by folding and pinching it. Authentical dumplings have at least 14 folds, preferably 18.

In Europe, Pringles has 34 active flavours in seven can sizes (one of which is called “David” for reasons no one can explain). Not all of these flavours are available in every European country – prawn cocktail only really sells in the UK and Ireland, while bacon is found in most places except Belgium, the Netherlands and strongholds of vegetarianism Austria, Denmark and Sweden. Salt and vinegar has spread everywhere except Norway and Italy. “They don’t have the habit of doing vinegar on their crisps; they just eat them plain with salt,” says Julie Merzougui, lead food designer at Kellanova. If an employee in Italy wanted to explore bringing salt and vinegar to the market, they could – they’d simply have to ask. As of yet, they haven’t.
Multiple times a year, Pringles releases limited-edition flavours known internally as “insanely accurate analogues” – Merzougui and Peremans come up with these for Europe. “People think we have the dream job,” Merzougui says (she has dark hair, round glasses and an easy laugh, a personality akin to an experimental flavour – perhaps a chorizo Pringle). Peremans, who has worked at the company for 26 years, has a salt and pepper beard and a Salt & Shake personality. He speaks quietly and pragmatically, but has a subtle playful streak: “My young son, he wants to become my successor.”
Like Lay’s, Pringles starts with data – in Asia, the company uses a Tinder-like tool with 200 consumers at a time, asking them to swipe left or right on potential flavours. Lucia Sudjalim, a senior Pringles developer in Asia, says she does a lot of “social media listening”, observing trends among influencers and bloggers. Kellanova also uses AI, which Merzougui says can predict trends up to 10 years in advance. Things aren’t always this sophisticated though – both Lay’s and Pringles also look at what’s on the shelves in countries they want to break into, copying flavours and identifying gaps to fill.
Yet just because the world wants a flavour doesn’t mean it’s made. In December 2020, scotch egg sales soared in the UK after Conservative ministers ruled the snack a “substantial meal” (providing punters with an excuse to be in the pub under Covid-19 lockdown rules). Peremans was challenged to make scotch egg Pringles and pulled it off; Merzougui says they tasted “really authentic”. Ultimately, however, the potential order volume was not high enough to justify a production run. (This, incidentally, is why it’s hard to get Salt & Pepper Pringles in the UK, even though they’re delicious.)
Another unreleased flavour was part of a collaboration with Nando’s that petered out for reasons Peremans is unsure about. Sometimes, logistics get in the way: the perfectly blended seasoning might clog the machines or create too much dust, causing sneezing fits in the factory. Belgian legislation mandates that every seasoning has to be put through a dust explosion test – it is set alight in controlled conditions to ensure it won’t blow up.
Inside the plant, manager Van Batenburg shows me giant cube-shaped bags of seasonings that arrive ready to be cascaded on to the crisps. At the end of his video presentation, he made a passing comment that rocked my world. We were talking about other crisp companies, big name competitors. “In essence,” he said, “they’re using the same seasoning houses we do.”
I leave Belgium with the names of three seasoning houses Pringles work with. At home, I discover that their websites are obscure – they speak of flavours and trends, but don’t even mention Pringles. I haven’t so much stumbled upon a conspiracy as been invited into it, but I am still shocked. After two months’ cajoling by the Pringles team, two representatives from a seasoning house agree to speak – but only on the condition of total anonymity, in line with their contractual obligations.
“It’s quite secretive,” food scientist Reuben admits via Zoom, wearing a pink shirt and a thoughtful expression (the only crisp I can compare him to is a Quaver). “Everyone has their own crown jewels that they protect.”
As a marketer, Peggy has always found the company’s secrecy “strange”. She speaks clearly, in a way that is reminiscent of a teacher or a steadfast multigrain snack. “It’s always been a bit of a puzzle to me … I was like, ‘Why aren’t we shouting about this?’ But I was told, ‘Oh, no, we have to keep it very quiet.’”
This is because – just as Van Batenburg hinted in Belgium – the seasoning house Reuben and Peggy work for provides flavours for Pringles and Lay’s, as well as other brands. When asked whether their clients know, Reuben says, “They do and they don’t.” “It’s just not really talked about,” Peggy adds. However, this doesn’t mean that a Salt & Vinegar Pringle is flavoured with the same seasoning as a Salt & Vinegar Lay’s. In fact, the seasoning house is strictly siloed to guarantee exclusivity. Reuben’s team work on the Pringles account; the team making flavours for PepsiCo is in an entirely different country. “So the recipe, if you will, of the Pringles salt and vinegar can’t be seen by the other team,” Reuben says.

Had a lovely time at the beautiful @thewilliamnw10 on the weekend. Imagine posh pub vibes with a great menu, there’s some mains on it but it’s all about the small plates. Carbonara croquettes, lamb ribs, fried aubergine, stone bass crudo, pork belly scotch egg, fried chicken, focaccia, thought it was all good tbh! I think the aubergine and scotch egg were my favourite though. The dessert was the absolute stand out for me, a citrus’y cheesecake mouse.

Pour s’immerger totalement, rien de mieux que d’y aller à fond, et aujourd’hui, ce fut exactement ça ! Le JACK quartet, composé de 4 musiciens américains, proposait 3 concerts dans la journée et je suis allée aux 3 : 11h30, 15h et 19h30. Leur répertoire centré sur de la musique contemporaine n’était pas toujours évident, pour autant c’était captivant, par la rythmique, la variété et la qualité de leur jeu. Parfois, c’était à la limite de la musique, une sorte de R&D fondamentale puis appliquée de ce que chaque instrument peut sortir de ses tripes. D’aucuns auraient dit leurs violons sonnent faux, ils ne sont pas accordés, ou pourquoi le violoncelliste joue du tambour et tape sur son instrument. In fine, j’ai été heureuse et immergée. Dans la salle, nous étions 50 max à chaque représentation dont 10 étaient des proches des musiciens sur une capacité de 600 places, ça fait peu. Le Wigmore Pub toujours aussi top. Frites, Scotch eggs au masala…et une IPA bien cloudy. Enfin, le Cavendish square idéal pour prendre le soleil entre 2 concerts et lire 1 livre merveilleux : les “Demeurées” de Jeanne Benameur. J’avais plus que dégusté sa patience des traces. Son écriture est physique, précise, toute en délicatesse, profondément humaine. Ce petit livre de moins de 100 pages est un hymne à l’enseignement, et à l’amour sous toutes ses formes, celui des mots, et celui qui n’a pas assez de mots. C’est immensément beau. L’entrée du Wigmore Hall

Traditional Ploughman's Platter - Cambridge | Great Ploughman's Lunch
The Ploughman's lunch is a classic British dish that may be found on the menu of nearly any pub. Although served chilled, this dinner isn't for those who prefer salads to sliced meats and cheese with pickles and bread spread with butter.
Origins:
A Traditional Ploughman's Platter was originally intended to be a meal that a ploughman (or Ploughman) could take with him into the fields. It's easy to believe that the Ploughman's lunch has been around for quite some time, given that bread, cheese, and pickles were staples of the British lunch. After World War II rationing ended, cheese sales were slow, so a national advertising campaign in the 1960s depicted the modern Ploughman's lunch to increase demand.
Ingredients in a Classic Ploughman's Lunch
The components of a ploughman's lunch may vary, but you can count on some form of crusty bread, some form of cheese, some pickled onions, and maybe some relish or chutney. Lunch might also consist of hard-boiled eggs, gammon, pate, pork pie, assorted cold meats and seasonal fruit like apple slices. Beer is a common accompaniment because the food is consumed at a tavern.
The Ploughman's wife would traditionally provide a hearty and reasonably priced lunch of homemade cheese, bread, and pickles. Cheeses from the region or at least the county should be included in a decent ploughman's lunch today, as should the meats and any other accompaniments. To properly support the cheese, chutney, and pickles, the bread must be either a thick wedge of crusty bread or a baguette.
The New Ploughman's Lunch:
The popularity of the gastro-pub in Britain has given a contemporary spin to the traditional Ploughman's lunch. Gastro-pubs are a new breed of pub where the cuisine is just as important as the drinks and the company. Nowadays, chefs often replace the conventional pub landlord as the business's head of gastro-pubs.
They have made the traditional Ploughman's lunch more luxurious by adding Scotch eggs, pates, terrines, tapenade, and other "fancy" meats.
Serving:
A plated Ploughman's board serves its purpose, but a wooden one is more attractive and durable. What could be better than eating with your spouse using only a butter knife and a tiny kitchen knife, each of a large, heavily laden chopping board? Side plates for spreading butter on bread are optional but not required. Recognise that you will make a mess and dive in.
Important Parts:
Sandwich with bread, cheese, ham and pickled something. The ham is essential for purists, but without it, this is just bread and cheese, not a ploughman's.
The bread must support the heavy weight of the ham and cheese. In terms of cheese, the best option is to serve two or three hard or semi-hard British cheeses at room temperature, with each cheese having a different flavour profile.
Baked, thick-sliced, 'genuine' pig ham is recommended. You don't want any slices of thin, pale, strangely homogeneous boiling ham on there. Although the individual components of a ploughman's lunch may be very one-dimensional, they generate something lively when combined. Putting together a ploughman's lunch from fresh, flavorful products is enjoyable, but you don't have to break the bank. It may even be pointless here.
Seasonings and other add-ons:
There must always be coleslaw and a touch of mustard when the ham is present. Peppery radishes, salted celery, and an apple are all necessary for palate cleansing freshness, although any one of them is preferable. Similarly, I prefer my Ploughman's to come with much mustardy watercress rather than a limp, discordant "mixed salad" (weasel words on any menu). There is a use for that.
Every meal needs a big slab of salted butter. That's just the right temperature for spreading. We cannot accept tiny pats of catering foil. Is this some garden centre?
Drinks:
The drink that goes well with Ploughman's lunch is Beer; if not, you can go for Cider. Either of them tastes good with the perfect lunch with family and friends.
Brook Pub Plougjman's Lunch:
We at the Brook Pub in Cambridge welcome you all to come and enjoy the Ployghman's lunch with a super choice of locally sourced ingredients. Every Sunday from 12 PM to 4 PM during the months of June, July, and August, for £14.5, you can enjoy our Ploughman's lunch at The Brook @ Cambridge.
You essentially have two choices:
Locally sourced Pork Pie made with Cambridgeshire pork:
Mini Scotch eggs:
Traditionally cured honey roast ham:
Blue stilton rich and flavoursome stilton cheese from Leicestershire
18-month matured vintage somerset cheddar
Brie soft and creamy French classic all served with white or granary bread and butter.
You can choose Branston or Chutney, marinated red onion, Silver skin onions, Pickled gherkins, Red apple, salad leaves and cherry tomatoes. Some ingredients may be subject to change as per availability.
Ploughman's lunch in Cambridge has always been popular among the locals, and we have come up with a modern platter with local produce to serve some of the fresh ingredients to our customers.
Brook Pub Drinks:
Many drinks are served at the Brook, but those accompanying Ploughman's lunch are either a beer or a Cider. We also have other drinks on the menu, like Whiskies, Gin, Rum, best Cocktails, Wine, and best summer drinks Pitchers. Our team is happy to help you with their service so that you can enjoy your food and drinks with your loved ones. Our garden area is open for those who love the summer heat or get cosy at the indoor bar. It's your choice.

The King Rufus trading since around 1850 and was one of many pubs that were owned and run by Ashby's brewery in Rumbridge Street, Totton.

Made with a hard-boiled egg wrapped in flavorful sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs, and deep-fried to perfection, the Scotch Eggs at the Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room are a must-try for anyone looking for a hearty and delicious meal. In this restaurant, you can expect to enjoy expertly prepared dishes using high-quality ingredients, all while soaking up the cozy and inviting ambiance of a classic British pub.

More Delicious Recipes You Will Love: - School Bread – Kringla Bakeri Og Cafe - Shrimp and Prosciutto Penne Pasta – Grand Floridian Cafe - Smores Bake – Big Thunder Ranch Barbecue So, it’s day one of “Brave” week! Who’s excited? The first recipe I wanted to do this week was, honestly, the one I was looking forward to the most. Though I apologize… Despite the name, this dish isn’t actually truly Scottish in origin. It was invented in London at a department store, though it may have been a variation of either an Indian or African dish. So why is it called Scotch or Scottish eggs? The best that I can discover from all of 5 minutes of research is that either it refers to the process of cooking them, because the original recipe called for Scotch beef, or because it was a very posh dish originally served as a robust accompaniment to liquor back when it was created in the 1700’s. Making these is really not as hard as it seems, though there are many steps in the process. The biggest tips I can offer to having these turn out really, really well is to make sure the oil is hot and the egg starts frying as soon as you put it in. If the egg goes into cold oil, it’ll be dripping in fat and you won’t get that amazing, crunchy bread coating on the outside of the egg. Also, having made these before (with a different recipe), I made the choice to leave out the fresh parsley from the sausage mix. I find that it either burns, or it gets soggy and prevents the bread coating from being crunchy. When it comes to putting the sausage around the egg, avoid the mistake I always make�� Don’t use too much sausage. It’ll draw out the cooking process and by the time the sausage is cooked through, the breading is burned. Should you cut into an egg and find that the sausage is still raw, wrap it in foil and put it in a warm oven. The sausage will cook until done without drying the egg. No harm done. Believe it or not, the hardest part of this recipe for me is always the hard boiled eggs. I stink at making and peeling hard boiled eggs, though luckily, it doesn’t matter once you wrap them in the sausage. Conclusion In conclusion, Scotch Eggs at the Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room are a delightful and satisfying dish that is not to be missed. This traditional British pub fare is made with a hard-boiled egg wrapped in flavorful sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried to a golden brown. The result is a crispy and savory outer shell that perfectly complements the soft and creamy boiled egg inside. The Scotch Eggs at the Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room are expertly prepared with high-quality ingredients, making them a fantastic choice for a satisfying meal or a hearty snack. Whether you're looking to sample some classic British cuisine or simply craving a delicious and satisfying dish, the Scotch Eggs at the Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room are definitely worth a try.

The beauty and charm of Cambridge never gets old!
Bill’s restaurant always did have the best English breakfast! And a true pot of tea was so nice. Miss these things!
We stayed at The Graduate Hotel which is right along the River Cambs. It had a DNA strand hanging from the ceiling as DNA was discovered here. It also had punt boats as the wall decor which was really cool!
Of course we had to hit all our favorite pubs for a cask beer. This is the famous Eagle where we sat INSIDE the old fireplace.
This is The Mill where I lost (barely) the chess game. We had a nice seat next to the window where we could watch it continue to rain.
Lastly, we stopped at The Anchor. Best seat in the house (to continue watching it rain). We used to punt this section of the river so it was very nostalgic. Not pictured is our Scotch Egg.
