Such chaotic fun 🤣🤣 Hope you guys enjoyed the video and learned some new food names from the UK! Ah and for pigs in a blanket I meant wrapped in croissant dough, not puff pastry** 😅 -Christina 🇺🇸
Pity they don't know what they're talking about.bangers come from the war when water was added to sausage meat to make the rations go further and when cooking would explode if you didn't prick them with a fork.toad in the hole isn't a pie,it's a batter with sausage in
Sausages are called bangers because during ww2 rationing pork was limited and so to bulk out the food people would use other things and often when cooking these sausages would sometimes explode in the pan. And people starting calling them bangers for this reason.
It's older than that. The big meat shortages were in World War I and the word comes from that wartime and the sausage explodes when moist fillers or water is used in place of some of the meat.
It's simply because sausages have a skin on them and if you don't prick them before cooking (put small holes in the skin) they have a tendency to explode. In fact that exact thing happened to me about 3 weeks ago when I cooked some sausages and forgot to prick them.
Watch these two , Christina and Lauren , is funny , enjoyable and even a good knowledge about their countries , thank you , ladies , hope see more of you both in the next videos 🇬🇧🇺🇲
"bangers" is just a (now somewhat outdated) slang term for sausages that arose during the Great War, when meat shortages meant sausages that had such a high water content that they could explode while being fried
It's really a popular dish these days, but Toad in the Hole isn't remotely like a pie. For a start, pies are made from pastry. The Toad in the Hole is sausages cooked in a Yorkshire Pudding. A Yorkshire Pudding is pancake batter baked in the oven until it rises. The sausages add another dimension, and the whole thing is absolutely delicious.
We have something similar to bangers & mash here in Sweden (called "korv med mos") that is super common, however not with onion gravy. Instead, it's ketchup or lingonberry jam or shrimp salad or pickled gherkin relish or some dressing. We do use onion gravy but it's mostly to potatoes and fried thick slices of salted bacon called "rimmat fläsk".
"The term bangers supposedly originated during World War I, when meat shortages resulted in sausages being made with a number of fillers, notably water, that caused them to explode when cooked." Basically "exploding sausages and mashed potatoes". "The first appearance of toad in the hole in the English lexicon (or at least on the written record) was from 1787, in a tome written by Francis Grose called A Provincial Glossary. It was defined by Grose as basically any meat boiled inside a crust." "Pigs in blankets is a dish served in the United Kingdom and Ireland consisting of small sausages (usually chipolatas) wrapped in bacon. The first recipes appeared in 1957, and the dish was popularized in the 1990s by Delia Smith, who included a recipe in a cook book." and "Pigs in blankets are thought to have originated from Czechoslovakia or Germany but first appeared in print in the Cooking for Kids cookbook, published by U.S food firm Betty Crocker in 1957." Etymology. "Spotted" is a reference to the dried fruit in the pudding (which resemble spots). "Dick" and "dog" were dialectal terms widely used for pudding, from the same etymology as "dough" (i.e., the modern equivalent name would be "spotted pudding"). All references a simple Google search away.
Look what I found. The ‘Dick’ in Spotted Dick seems to come from the shortened Old English names for pudding: puddog or puddick. In Scotland it is often called Spotted Dog Pudding. Sounds plausible or coherent at least.
I'm from Malaysia and IDK if it's because we're one of the British colonised countries thus the influence, but we also have some weirdly (but subtle unlike British ones) named food, usually the traditional ones, like "kuih batang buruk" is directly translated to "ugly stick biscuit" 🤣
The Christmas is coming , i've already wish you guys a Merry Christmas , i want to see a video of US and UK about how their Christmas are , others countries as well
Toad in the hole in America is a slice of bread that you cut out a circle in the middle. Place the bread in a heated and buttered pan. Then you crack an egg in the hole and cook on both sides.
Christina and Lauren are my favourite reactors on this channel ❤️ they seem to have a genuine friendship and are so funny together 😆 good work girls ❤️❤️❤️ XxXxX
During colonial Singapore, the loo was commonly known as WC, Water Closet. Some even called it lavatory. But toilet is easy to pronounce. So, it's commonly used. Bathroom is only for showering, not doing business.
2:14 The term bangers supposedly originated during World War I, when meat shortages resulted in sausages' being made with a number of fillers (meat), notably WATER, that caused them to EXPLODE when cooked. 7:05 you’re correct Lauren. "Spotted" is a reference to the dried fruit in the pudding (which resemble spots). "Dick" and "dog" were dialectal terms widely used for pudding, from the same etymology as "dough" (i.e., the modern equivalent name would be "spotted pudding").
Bangers from the explosion sometimes the sausages would do while cooking. Years ago the sausages were incased in intestines. These were thick and the heat would boil the water and make the skin explode. Thus bangers.
I love your channel , learning at the same time having some fun 😊♥️ I always watch your contents/videos, always enjoying the vibe. Watching from the Philippines♥️
I've heard of the hot dog wrapped in a biscuit pigs in a blanket, but we always called meat stuffed cabbage rolls pigs in a blanket. Might be the Eastern European influences in my family and in Pittsburgh in general? My mom's side of the family always served it with a marinara sauce (I'm guessing b/c that side is Italian American and everything is served with a red sauce).
I've heard it's called bangers because they pop in the skillet and I've heard it's because it got introduced to people when the bombs were falling. That's just what I've heard.
I know I'm like a year late but the word BANGERS actually comes from old times when people were poor and they used to put little meat in sausage and kinda added a lot of water in it and when you started to fry it on a pan the water mixing with the heat started to make small explosions.
Toad in a hole always confused me because from the part of the United States that I am from it's something completely different. It's a piece of bread with a hole cut in the middle that you drop an egg into while it's frying in a pan so the egg fries and connects to the bread.
In America Pigs on a Blanket is a hotdog, Vienna Sausage or Link wrapped around biscuit dough or croissant. Bacon Wrapped Sausage is the UK’s pigs on a blanket.
I thought our traditional foods had the weirdest names, till I saw this video.They sounded like inedible or not appetizing, but definitely we had a lot of fun watching this mind boggling and hilarious video. Thanks so much for broadening our horizon World Friends, not only your videos are absolutely entertaining but highly informative as well.
There are a lot weired German Foods: e.g. (Tote Oma = dead grandma, Kalter Hund = cold dog, Falscher Hase = fake rabbit, Grünkohl & Pinkel, Labskaus, Lüngerl, Maultschen a.s.o)
Ah I love Bangers and Mash, I remember I was in a pub up in the Peak District with my boyfriend once, and I had the best bangers and mash ever, it was all inside a giant Yorkshire pudding too, and it was absolutely smashing. I love being British.
You guys are so funny! I’m American and I know bangers are called that because when you cook them they pop as you fry them. Ergo banger. Can’t help you with the rest lol!
interesting fact about the UK, regarding pork, we are one of the largest number of pork eaters in history...there used to be so many varieties of pig but we ate so many pigs some went extinct because of us. in the old days many families kept pig in the back garden...that was how common it was.
Actually Christina, French people eat frogs' legs. You were saying how toad in the hole sounded sexual, but my favourite is cock a leekie. It's actually chicken and leek soup, but I always think it sounds like the sort of thing a man might say if he needs to go to the loo: "Okay guys, I'm just going to cock a leekie."
Bangers are also part of a good fry-up! From what I’ve read, the sausages are called bangers because during the II World War, when Germany was invading and bombarded everything, there was extreme poverty everywhere. The butchers didn’t had good quality meat and they used to make the sausages using lower quality meat and also adding a lot of potato starch and fat. That fat was popping and banging 💥 when people were frying their sausages and from the bang-bang in the pan the sausages were named bangers! I think that it’s true, otherwise someone was clearly pulling my pisser…
We have toad in the hole in the United States! But it's different! It's a piece of bread with a big hole cut in the middle, fried on the stovetop, and into the hole you crack one egg and season it. It's perfect for if you're hung over.
Sausages are called bangers because during WW2 they contained a lot of water and as you fried them in your frying pan then they would bang loudly. Hence the slang name of "bangers".
"bangers" comes from sausages sometimes exploding when cooked, due to steam buildup. Modern sausages are usually less susceptible to this, and piercing the skin with a fork before cooking can also prevent it.
I just cant imagine when someday in US, people ask the UK, "what're you eating this morning?", "oh, I ate spotted dick, it was delicious". The us dude be like : 👁👄👁
I’ve been serving PIAB where I work (in Maryland) for a couple of decades. They come frozen, and every brand I’ve ever seen, was a mini hot dog wrapped in puff pastry dough. Except one type, we occasionally saw, where the it had more of pie dough consistency. But I'd definitely be down with the pancake version!
Such chaotic fun 🤣🤣 Hope you guys enjoyed the video and learned some new food names from the UK! Ah and for pigs in a blanket I meant wrapped in croissant dough, not puff pastry** 😅 -Christina 🇺🇸
Your ideas & imagination are so witty Christina 😅✌️I just started to follow you on YT & Instagram. 👌

or because sausages bang
It's simply because sausages have a skin on them and if you don't prick them before cooking (put small holes in the skin) they have a tendency to explode. In fact that exact thing happened to me about 3 weeks ago when I cooked some sausages and forgot to prick them.
@Zankor2, Yes indeed. Surprised they didn't get that

Another Christina and Lauren videos, I always watch their video cause they make the vibes so enjoyable and cheerful. Love from Indonesia❤️

They're women, it's all fake
you alright mate !

Kinda horrible dissonance but I seem to like it 😆

Combine it with a nice cauliflower cheese and it is perfect. Those two just go together brilliantly.
In the US, I heard toad in the hole as a fried egg in a piece of toast. Look up toad in the hole egg and you will see what I mean.
@@Devnet94 Yes, I've seen that before. I think we just call that 'egg in toast' or something in the UK.
Toad in the hole is honestly (imo) the tastiest meal you can cook for the tiny amount of effort that it takes
Americans really don't know what pie is. They think pizza is a type of pie.
The two of you seem to have so much fun wiith these sessions. They are entertaining so please, continue.
We have something similar to bangers & mash here in Sweden (called "korv med mos") that is super common, however not with onion gravy. Instead, it's ketchup or
lingonberry jam or shrimp salad or pickled gherkin relish or some dressing.
We do use onion gravy but it's mostly to potatoes and fried thick slices of salted bacon called "rimmat fläsk".
when Lauren said "*chuckles* Christinaaaaa" that was so cutee i swear to god
It’s fun to see the 2 girls having fun speaking English to each other.
I'm so hungry now. You guys have great chemistry and I love your videos together! I've learned so much.

“…most of the time it’s just a pie with hole and there’s sausage in it…”
Man, I’m agree with Christina on this on.
The panic was palpable when Lauren realized Christina had just invited herself to her home.
Was that panic or tension? 👀

I’m from the U.S. and my grandma makes me toad in a hole too. But for me, that means egg in the middle of toast for a breakfast meal.
We always called that eggs in a basket. One of my favorite breakfasts growing up.

I grew up in Indianapolis. The cafeteria served us pig in a blanket, and it was just a hotdog wrapped in toast instead of a bun.
Im thinking I would love to see a cooking video of these two doing some UK and US recipes 😂
omg. I love Christina more after this video. I am vegan too. They are so fun and so beautiful.

3:39 I like dirty-minded Christina lol
Cristina is too much holy with her beautiful face and accent!🖤
I’m American. The pigs in a blanket I’ve seen were weiners or sausages wrapped in with crescent rolls wrapped around them. Usually Pilsbury brand
I have a feeling Pillsbury probably took the "pigs in a blanket" term and slapped it on a recipe that uses its product. Probably as a marketing ploy.

I've heard it's called bangers because they pop in the skillet and I've heard it's because it got introduced to people when the bombs were falling. That's just what I've heard.
I believe "banger sausage" comes from the fact that when you let it hit a hot pan, the casing of the sausage can burst open
Lauren is my type, what a beauty

I've been to restaurants in the US where Pigs In A Blanket are sausage wrapped in pancakes. That's what I thought that was

Sausage in bacon confirms my image of English cuisine
Best cuisine in the world! 🤣
In Pennsylvania, we had pigs in a blanket that wrapped a pork loaf in cabbage topped with a tomato sauce.
Sausages are called bangers because during WW2 they contained a lot of water and as you fried them in your frying pan then they would bang loudly. Hence the slang name of "bangers".
I just love Lauren 😍
Weird food names. Now that’s a good dinner conversation piece.
"bangers" comes from sausages sometimes exploding when cooked, due to steam buildup. Modern sausages are usually less susceptible to this, and piercing the skin with a fork before cooking can also prevent it.
Cute and Funny... You both cracked me up about the sausage jokes and being vegetarians...
Sausages would sizzle in the pan therefore would bang.
These two is always make a perfect and fun videos! 😄
Sausages were made with added water which went bang when cooked hence bangers
I just cant imagine when someday in US, people ask the UK, "what're you eating this morning?", "oh, I ate spotted dick, it was delicious". The us dude be like :

Where I'm from (west coast US) pigs in blankets ate sausage links wrapped in pancakes (hotcakes).
I just love them
You all give me knowledge about English
When you fry sausages and don't prick the skin they will burst as the heat expands the meat hence bangers.
US pigs in blankets: a pancake wrapped around a hot dog
UK pigs in blankets: a sausage wrapped in bacon
I’m American and the PIAB I’ve seen aren’t pancakes. It was a type of roll. Might be a regional thing.
I’ve been serving PIAB where I work (in Maryland) for a couple of decades. They come frozen, and every brand I’ve ever seen, was a mini hot dog wrapped in puff pastry dough. Except one type, we occasionally saw, where the it had more of pie dough consistency. But I'd definitely be down with the pancake version!
