But there is one thing that many of them have in common. Whether you - [Pan Haggerty](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/11/21/pan-haggerty/) - While County Durham has panackelty, neighbours in Northumberland enjoy another regional dish that serves as either a side dish or as a tasty vegetarian supper. It's a simple combination of potato, onion, and cheese. And it's called pan haggerty. There's little more to be said about this. After all, with potato and cheese, what more - [Exploring Sussex: Rye Harbour](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/11/17/exploring-sussex-rye-harbour/) - Although mention of the Sussex coast might conjure up images of seaside resorts - Brighton, Bognor Regis, and Eastbourne to name just a few - there are also plenty of rich opportunities to view the region's wildlife. One location that should not be skipped by walkers and nature lovers is the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve. - [Grasmere and Rydal Water](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/11/08/grasmere-rydal-water/) - It should come as no surprise that Grasmere is one of the most popular spots in the South Lakeland area, and indeed in the entire Lake District National Park. The village's shops and tea-rooms make it a welcoming destination in itself, as well as a friendly stopover for walkers. In addition to being a part - [Fit For a Queen: Coronation Chicken](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/09/06/fit-queen-coronation-chicken/) - June 2, 1953. Coronation Day for Queen Elizabeth II. It was a day of street parties, of people crowding around a neighbour's television if they were lucky enough to find one, hoping to catch a glimpse of the new monarch. War may have ended eight years ago, but food rationing was still a part of - [Beaulieu](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/01/26/beaulieu/) - Stately homes often conjure up images of stuffy old buildings, busloads of old people, and bored kids being dragged from room to room by their parents. And there's no doubt that we've all visited our fair share of those. Fortunately, though, the former Lord Montagu, ancestral owner of Beaulieu in England's New Forest was a - [Shortbread](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/08/30/shortbread/) - A perfect combination of butter flavour and crumbly texture, shortbread is a traditional Scottish biscuit that is easy to make and adapt. And although its origins may not necessarily be solely north of the border, Scotland has made it truly a national dish. Historians believe that shortbread, in one form or another, has existed since - [Best of British Beaches - Wales](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/08/22/best-british-beaches-wales/) - With a Bank Holiday nearly upon us and only a week or two of school holidays left, there's still time to make plans for a trip to the beach. But don't limit your trips to the summer months. In the winter, the coast takes on a completely different feel - the wind, the waves. We - [Welsh Rarebit - Not Just Cheese on Toast](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/08/15/welsh-rarebit-not-just-cheese-toast/) - Many think it is mere cheese on toast, but Welsh Rarebit is so much more. Now commonly known as Rarebit, the dish was once known as Welsh Rabbit, and indeed some folks still call it that.

And very unfairly so. Frequently the punchline in jokes, fruit cake is assumed to be heavy, dry, and lacking in any redeeming qualities. Sadly, some cakes, both commercially- and home-made reinforce this stereotype. However, the same could be said for any dish - [Summer Pudding](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/07/04/summer-pudding/) - British summertime means plenty of opportunities to pick a bounty of British berries.

Time for some sticky toffee pudding. This British classic is not quite as old as you might think. It seems to have jumped into people's bellies in the 1970s when it was - [Great British Beef Week, Part 3](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/04/25/great-british-beef-week-part-3/) - Welcome to the third and final part of our Great British Beef Week.

Even in - [Suet: What is it?](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/01/29/suet-what-is-it/) - Recently chatting to an American friend, the topic of suet arose. Giving me an odd glance, she pointed to the suet cakes she hangs in her garden for the birds and asked what was so different about English suet?

Not that there is anything wrong with Canterbury. It is a beautiful little city and I enjoy making day trips there to browse the shops and soak up some history. But East Kent has so much more to offer. Faversham, for example. - [Getting Medieval in the Kitchen](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/2017/01/15/getting-medieval-in-the-kitchen/) - Some time ago, I received the book British Food: An Extraordinary Thousand Years of History by Colin Spencer, and that I was intrigued to learn more about the eating habits of my homeland, particularly during medieval times.

Pasties to pot pies; suet crust, flaky, or shortcrust pastry; savory, sweet, or both (Bedfordshire Clanger, anyone?) Yes for Brits, the pie is a true work of art. So it only makes sense that one day a year ## Pages - [About](https://britishfoodandtravel.com/about/) - The goal of this site is to celebrate the rich diversity and history of British food and landscape.
