Just to clarify for those outside of the UK and who reside in countries that don’t have Mushy Peas, they aren’t just mashed up garden peas, they are made from a specific type of dried peas called marrowfat, that are soaked in water and baking soda (normally overnight) and then drained, rinsed and boiled in water until soft. They might then have some dairy in the form of a little butter or cream mixed in, along with some seasoning and in some areas fresh mint but this is all dependent on area and/or family tradition. My Mum never used to add anything other than seasoning and they’d be served in a bowl with malt vinegar added to taste. But essentially, don’t confuse Mushy Peas with pea purée.
They’re not garden peas?? Ok I’m Australian and have loved mushy peas my whole life and mind blown I thought they were mushed up garden peas You can buy them canned and mushed here I’m curious what peas we use here Mind blown for real
@@TT-zv1oh you can buy canned and frozen (a relatively recent addition) Mushy Peas here in the UK too but back in the 80’s when I was a kid, every once in a while my Mum would make them from scratch and they were the best Mushy Peas going…in my opinion…and I’d eat a bowl sprinkled with malt vinegar as an afternoon snack. In recent years some of the more pretentious places that serve Fish n Chips, seem to have started doing a minted pea purée made with garden peas that they call mushy peas but they’re not. They’re perfectly lovely but they’re not Mushy Peas in the traditional sense.
haha I was sitting here when she was naming all the classically English food thinking as a Canadian raised by a Scottish mum that those are all foods I was raised on.
I always find it like a dog whistle when people talk about English culture but I dont feel that way about the other nations. But I guess I don't identify as English, I'm British.
@lalalaAli I just want to make it clear that I do not think in this case its being used as a dog whistle AT ALL. If you want to look this up yourself it's a political term which is essentially where certain groups use words that amongst themselves indicate a certain belief. This way they can talk about controversial and most likely harmful things without provoking others. So when someone describes themselves as English, they are usually indicating they are part of an organisation such as EVELs, and there is a big crossover of those groups with groups like the EDL. This isn't the case if someone was to say their Scottish, its a cultural identity that spans across lots of other complex identities. This doesn't mean someone can't have a strong English identity, it is just extremely likely that it is flag for more concerning political ideology. A better example might be "main stream media" it is a dog whistle for conspiracists BUT lately it seems to be used by people just to describe the big media channels.
Can I just say Grace, I LOVE the little history nuggets that you put in your videos when visiting somewhere historical. It's so lovely to learn something new and to have a wee educational aspect too.
I worked at a fish and chip shop in yorkshire as a teenager and those portion sizes would have caused riots. The small chips portion could have fed a small family 😆
To me, as an American, fish & chips is definitely the most iconic English meal (made even more English by the vinegar), followed closely by the roast dinner (Yorkshire puddings being the quintessentially English bit) and the full breakfast (where the black sausage is the key English part). We have forms of all these things, of course, but it's just not quite the same here.
In Australia we love fish and chips usually you can order normal salt on your chips or chicken salt which I recommend. We don't really have mushy peas or curry sauce. Usually if you order it for takeaway it's just tomato sauce as we say ( ketchup ). Or In some places you can get a kind of tartar sauce . And you usually can get fish and chips at pubs too.
Mushy Peas and Curry sauce are my favourites. And I always get scraps, in fact I would happily have lots of scraps and fewer chips. Where I grew up in Lincolnshire and where I live now in Yorkshire the sausages are battered in the same batter as the fish.
WOW! Very strange. I've been thinking about Fish and Chips all day. I haven't had it for years and was thinking that it would be my Friday night treat. I'm definitely going to order a home delivery from my local chippy tomorrow.
Fun video! Interesting to see the similarities and differences in cultures. We prefer hush puppies over 'chips' and cole slaw over mushy peas but the vibe is the same.......Thanks for sharing!
I live close to the Devon/Cornwall border and large fish and chips in my town is about £9 without any sides. It's always more in touristy areas though.
I'm in Exeter, Devon and it's roughly about the same price. I can remember when it was a 'treat' on a Friday... not because it was expensive. Fish and Chips from the Chippy just gave Mum the night off from cooking.
We went to London a few years ago and had the opportunity to go to some amazing restaurants and this was one of them. In fact it is the only place we went to twice. The chips, the chips, the chips, PERFECT! Crispy on the outside yet a thin shell and the inside was like mashed potato, so fluffy, just great. I will always go to this place (plaice lol) when in London. IT"S A MUST!! Thank you for bringing it all back.
i've watched you for the last three years from new zealand and now seeing family in the UK, it's so cool to be in the same place as you so i can follow your recommendations heh! love your videos sooo much, you've helped me more than you could know ੈ✩‧₊˚
I would love to watch a video of you getting a colour analysis. I would love to see if light blue is the most compatible colour for you since that’s your favourite colour 💕
Fish and chips is HUGE in Philly. No curry sauce or gravy. Malt vinegar and mushy peas definitely. Sometimes with cole slaw. Mostly in brewpubs. Pickled eggs and beets too. Yum.
Over here, we used to have Arthur Treacher's Fish and Chips, but I don't think there are many left. We had Long John Silver's, and even that is gone in my town. And I've never had one of those pickled eggs like they have in bars, but in my house, we put hard boiled eggs in pickled beet juice and have it with the beets, and for me, a scoop of cottage cheese. It's so interesting seeing the differences.
loved this! could you please film a week eating like a Scandinavian or Scandinavian food? why not eating a variation of the countries' staple foods, like Monday - Sweden, Tuesday - Norway, Wednesday - Finland etc. Really would love this as a fellow Nordic girly who haven't bumped into content like this on yt, so would love a video like this! wish you all positive vibes, hugs from Finland!
Potatoes and fried fish are just a classic combination, wherever you are in the world. Here in Finland we traditionally don't also fry the potatoes but we do batter vendace whole (it's such a small fish that properly cooked you don't feel the bones) and fry it in butter, it's a popular market food and potatoes in various forms are the default side dish.
I feel like I have a chippy quite often. I usually go for a battered sausage and chips with salt & vinegar - it was about £5.40 for my last battered sausage and chips. For fish and chips it’s usually about £10ish maybe less maybe more depending on where you go where I am! (North East of England) My local cafe/restaurant on the beach is about £12.50 for a large fish and chips with mushy peas and tartar sauce. I don’t think I could personally pay £25 for fish and chips 😳
Here in New Zealand Fish n Chips are popular takeaways. We have them with tomato sauce or tartare sauce and or lemon juice. Maybe with bread and butter. On thr side there are battered sausage , potato/ mussel/ pinapple fritters, squid rings . Common fish used are schnapper, gurnard, hoki, warehou, tarakihi, cardinal, lemon fish ( baby shark)
I live in the midlands and been watching your videos since you had 5k followers! I haven’t been to London since I was 10 and I am unlikely be able to afford to go any time soon! I live vicariously through your videos often 😅
My family are from East London and we all call Gherkins Wollys. I'm sure they do in Essex as well. Pickled eggs are yummy and they're very good for you (extra bit of protein!) 😊
G'day from Australia - we definitely have fish and chips! I'm sure they came from the UK tradition originally, but we've made them out own with dim sims, seafood sticks, and a nationwide argument about whether it's called a potato cake or a potato scallop.
Hi both, did YOU put pepper and vinegar on your mushy peas.? That's such a great peas of fish ,ALL that food looked so good. Take care and all the best. 😊😊👍👍
If you're ever in Edinburgh it's 100% worth a trip to Portobello beach for St Andrews fish and chips. They've won best fish and chips in Edinburgh several times and they are absolutely my favourite fish and chips... which is annoying considering I live in Buckinghamshire haha! The other best fish and chips is the old school style at the west country living museum, they do it with beef tallow (which isn't actually allowed by health laws anymore but because they're a heritage site they are allowed to in order to 'protect the history') anyway absolutely delicious! I think you'd enjoy the museum too, there's so many things to do!
Many years ago on a tour of Ireland, best Fish and Chips I had was at a place called McDougal's in Galway. Mind you that was over 20 years ago, so they may not be there anymore.
I love fish n chips but, only now and again. It’s quite heavy and stodgy and although I love it whilst I’m scoffing it down I always say to my hubby ‘I don’t want that again for a long time’ 😂😂 Until the next month…😂
Fish and chips is definitely a menu option at a lot of places here in the US (at least in the region where I'm at), but it is known as very British to us. We don't get any mushy peas as a side or curry sauce or vinegar with it though, just a tartar sauce, or ketchup that's usually already available at the table. I personally love it, but I imagine it's better in the UK where it seems like it's made with a fresh catch whenever possible.
I New Zealand we have the classic Fish and chips too which is a real staple but no offer of mushy peas, curry sauce or gravy that I have ever come across. But Vinegar, Tartare sauce and Tomatoe sauce are go too's. And then the Paua Fritters, muscles, hotdogs on a stick (battered yum) scallops, squid rings, and potato fritters are the go.
I am American and I love fish and chips. I think it’s a pretty well known British dish. The one we all think is off is the beans for breakfast thing. We have beans with dinner so it’s an odd combination lol
I'm in Ontario, Canada and people here love fish & chips but not in the same way as it's enjoyed in the UK. We don't necessarily have chippys and can typically only find fish & chips at pubs and some restaurants. My family have a favourite seafood restaurant along a river that does fish & chips. I find the ones I've had here don't have the craggly batter but instead it's smooth.
In Connecticut, along the Shore, a Fisherman Platter (Cod, chips, scallops, shrimp, clams) costs around 25 -40$ (and higher!) Depending on the Town, making these prices seem very Reasonable 🦐🍟🐟😄 Also, the prices & portions vary Wildly from place to place, Old Lyme, Mystic (Pizza!), Groton ...
Wow that's expensive. Looks worth it though. Big serve. I can get fish and chips for about AUD$15 (£8) in Australia at my local. They still do good old batter as you order fish
In south africa our traditional fish and chips, the chips have to be very soggy and almost stick to the paper it gets served in. Its called slap tjips and its so good but sounds awful.
I'm from the east Coast of Canada and we take out fish and chips very seriously over here. We actually had a debate in the lunch room at work today over what restaurants in town have the best fish. The debate got very heated 😂
When you get back to the US try to find pickled beets and eggs, they are delicious and not super vinegary! The best fish and chips I ever had was in in Delft (Belgium)!
We have fish and chips here in New England, USA. I think of it as an expensive thing to eat but one that is very, very delicious and fun to eat. That is what I usually order on my birthday, followed by cake for dessert, at a restaurant called Roberts, in Kittery, Maine, USA. I've never tasted mushy peas but I would like to try it next time I am in the UK.
Fish and chips are very popular in Ireland too but like in the UK fish has become very expensive and the chip portions have definitely become much smaller. Even in supermarkets fish is expensive. I paid €20/kilo for some trout yesterday. We don't really do curry sauce with fish and chips, more for things like chicken balls and chips or just for chips by themselves. We do tartare sauce though but mushy peas aren't that popular. The biggest crime is when someone overcooks the fish. Such a let down. In Spain, I love deep fried bacalao. It's so good.
I live in the south in America and we have fried catfish and fries, very similar to fish and chips, except the fish is usually breaded in a corn meal mixture. ☺️
Yesterday in Italy I had mixed fried seafood, (octopus, big prawns, calamari) chips, bread, glass of wine, water, and then spoilt it by having liquorice all sorts for dessert. €20.
1:43 love your videos, but just a note to say that when you add your text in white it makes it really hard to read against light colours in the clip. Maybe consider adding a semi transparent back box or similar behind the text, or changing to a more visible colour :)
Nothing better than a nice fried whitefish. I live in the southeast US and it is really hard to find good fish and chips. Mushy peas... not sure why they exist though! 😘
I live in the South in the US. We have fried fish and what you call chips, we call fries. But I must say this looks sooooooo good! I think it's so neat that you have shared something so iconic with us. Great video!
We have fish and chips in the US but it's not best as good as the fish and chips in England. My husband and I were there in 2022 and the fish and chips were delicious.
That is some very expensive fish and chips! Even at our more pricey establishments here in Australia (in my area anyway) rarely would I pay more than $28 which is probably more like £15? Fish and chips are a staple here too, British influence to thank 😂
Oh and we have chips and gravy as an actual dish, though many people like it with tomato sauce instead (ketchup). The curry sauce is definitely British.
For a foodie, I'm slightly surprised you didnt know what mushy peas were. As others have written theyre not garden peas mushed up. Really need a bit of mint sauce on the peas or at least some vinegar.
Here in America, we eat what you call fish and chips. We call them fish and fries. And we have restaurant called long John silvers that serves it with hush puppies and little crispy bits. Does Betty like the dredges from the fraud stuff that everybody ask for Cuz it taste really good.
This place used to be my favourite place to eat fish and chips when I lived in London, over 10 years ago. But it was muuuuuuch cheaper 😳... And yes, fish and chips is objetctively delicious, not just for British peopleI I miss it!
Fish and chips where I live the last time we went was £11.50. When I was a kid my dad used to take me for a cone of chips and it was the size of your head for 50p
I think this highlights the difference between areas of the UK, this is a full on sit down meal and looks average imo. Takeaway chippy tea all the way! Those prices are eye watering 😅

Thanks for clarifying I wish she explained this in the video as well as what’s in tartar sauce…
For the views who aren't from the uk we do have fish and chips in the whole of the country Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland as well as England

The chips are WAY different to UK chips though! I’m from the UK and moved to Aus and I’ll always miss the English fish and chips
In Canada we enjoy a good fish & chips as well! :D
Also here in Australia! I like my fish crumbed though. No one does battered fish like the UK.
just want to say i cant explain the comfort your vlogs give me grace!

Potato scallop all the way . Cause they are potato's that a scalloped and battered . I don't know where they got cake from ? .

Saveloys are common in NZ fish and chip shops, but they are battered. Known as a ‘battered sav’, they are a common accompaniment to fish and chips.
Yesterday in Italy I had mixed fried seafood, (octopus, big prawns, calamari) chips, bread, glass of wine, water, and then spoilt it by having liquorice all sorts for dessert. €20.
lovely to see your brother again ... i want fish and chips meow at 12.25am lol
where is that necklace from??
The sides options round here are gravy curry peas or beans you didn't mention the north south divide plus yoh lot get more money than us
1:43 love your videos, but just a note to say that when you add your text in white it makes it really hard to read against light colours in the clip. Maybe consider adding a semi transparent back box or similar behind the text, or changing to a more visible colour :)
Nothing better than a nice fried whitefish. I live in the southeast US and it is really hard to find good fish and chips. Mushy peas... not sure why they exist though! 😘
I live in the South in the US. We have fried fish and what you call chips, we call fries. But I must say this looks sooooooo good! I think it's so neat that you have shared something so iconic with us. Great video!
We have fries here but they are thinner cut, the thicker cut ones are called chips.
❤❤❤❤
1:00 and if you are northern you have gravy :)
We have fish and chips in the US but it's not best as good as the fish and chips in England. My husband and I were there in 2022 and the fish and chips were delicious.
Those prices are insane! Now I want fish and chips.
We also have Fish and Chips in Ireland
Farty vinegar eggs are great! 😂
You both look so like your dad,Grace I hope you gave your brother some fish,he shared his meal with you 🤣
I like haddock. Prices are basically the same for all fish. It is quite pricey!
If you’re ever in Sussex go to Middletons in shoreham, insane.
Awh, now I want to go to a pier and get some fresh seafood.
Yay - Jesse!
That is some very expensive fish and chips! Even at our more pricey establishments here in Australia (in my area anyway) rarely would I pay more than $28 which is probably more like £15?
Fish and chips are a staple here too, British influence to thank 😂
Oh and we have chips and gravy as an actual dish, though many people like it with tomato sauce instead (ketchup). The curry sauce is definitely British.
I craved pickled eggs when I was pregnant ate about 4 a day 😂
For a foodie, I'm slightly surprised you didnt know what mushy peas were. As others have written theyre not garden peas mushed up. Really need a bit of mint sauce on the peas or at least some vinegar.
Here in America, we eat what you call fish and chips. We call them fish and fries. And we have restaurant called long John silvers that serves it with hush puppies and little crispy bits. Does Betty like the dredges from the fraud stuff that everybody ask for Cuz it taste really good.
This place used to be my favourite place to eat fish and chips when I lived in London, over 10 years ago. But it was muuuuuuch cheaper 😳... And yes, fish and chips is objetctively delicious, not just for British peopleI I miss it!
Fish and chips where I live the last time we went was £11.50. When I was a kid my dad used to take me for a cone of chips and it was the size of your head for 50p
I think this highlights the difference between areas of the UK, this is a full on sit down meal and looks average imo. Takeaway chippy tea all the way! Those prices are eye watering 😅
Mushy peas have salt sugar alsorts added not just mushed up peas
SURPRISE JESSE APPEARANCE!
Is that all the chips you get 😮😮😮😮😮
