Btw, you made Cottage Pie, well.. a version of it at least, the clue is in the name.. Shepherd's Pie is made with Ground Lamb, Shepherds herd sheep :) This is very important to us Brits.
@@JonathansKitchen "Modern usage of the two are interchangeable" It's really not, one is one thing and the other is another, it's not about being a "Purist" it's about knowing the difference between two dishes that you claim you are cooking. Little analogy... Calling you Peter when your name is Jonathan doesn't make you a Peter. You made YOUR version of Cottage Pie. Sometimes accepting the lesson and being humble about it is better than forcing a wrong point. Also I was not offended, I was just enlightening you to the correct name of the dish and the differences between the two. Anyhow, enjoy your food.
@@suzannebrookes5950 Oh sorry, I wasn't trying to say YOU were offended. I was just making fun of my own audacity to call it the wrong thing. I've honestly never met anyone who didn't know the difference. I just thought it was common knowledge. I would still make the argument that modern usage is indeed interchangeable in the states. I like how you said it's important to Brits, and I 100% agree, and I have mad respect for those who value specificity and culinary culture. Our melting pot of culinary culture here in the states can be confusing for sure. Chinese American food, for example, or Korean American often blur the lines of authentic and historical accuracy. So I apologize for my ill-use of it.
Love the no-nonsense sped up version. You earned a sub and like.
Ha, you're awesome, thanks.

Indeed. My sacrilegious version meant no offense. Modern usage of the two are interchangeable, but I respect the purists!
