It’s pronounced Annick, a castle in Northumberland FYI. It’s also not Peterboro, but Peterburo. How can you get it so wrong? 
You sure you want to do this with me all night? I have a lot of British unbelievable pronunciations.

Very funny, we taught you how to speak English and allowed the Québécois to speak French be grateful 
for those not learned in sarcasm I am not being serious (although it’s true we did teach you English and allow you go speak French) this is all tongue in cheek I am not that arrogant or racist

What I wanna know is why Worcestershire is pronounced Wooster?

Tea is an evening meal (if you’re from the north like I am, if you’re posh southern it’s supper or normal southern dinner), cuppa is a cup of tea, I’m not a Brit, I’m English, a Scot, Welsh or N.Irish would not be a Brit they are Scottish, Welsh or Irish just to teach you
Thank you for this. 90 per cent of the time people say British they mean English. The term “British accents is particularly egregious.
Back on food, just get a lodge CI pan. No need to go crazy high end. I’ve had great success with knockoffs of Le Creuset enamel. It’s not exactly high tech stuff.

How far the magnanimous english have come since allowing us poor quebecois to speak our own language! Now they hardly let their own citizens speak at all
Not being racist or arrogant just tongue in cheek lol.

Thinking about this, although the British were very good at rampaging their way through the world back in the day and they did bring various foods back (eg curry, kedgeree, tea) did they actually leave any food and drink legacy? I’m not so sure they did, train systems we were good at leaving but food and drink I can’t think of any.

Yeah, why are we taking lessons from people who don't know how to say "laboratory" or "aluminum" like a normal person or who spell the word "tire" with a "y"?We have a schwa sound for consonants here. The T sound is softer, but it's not a D.
Coming from someones who says Hawdwick for Hardwick. Sheesh.

Dentistry wasn't a strong suit of the British either. Still isn't, from what I can tell.
What's that line? 'The english have 60 religions and only one sauce'? English style fish and chips is likely in my death-row meal request list, but outside that, it sure is slim pickings.
Maybe it's understandable, given how much effort was expended teaching us how to speak english rather than developing any sort of food culture

The English were smart enough to adopt tea and cuisine from India as Holland took in Indonesian food.
Both their historic cuisines are pretty bad - average save the additions they borrowed from other cultures.

Is this the same as Smithwicks?
Definitely not Smith Wicks should be Smith icks . I was in the Navy so I can handle you taking the piss out of me and I won’t take offence.
I think some of you took it too seriously with my colonials comments and about the French thing. I apologize to anyone who was offended. The British really shouldn’t be too proud over some of their history.Personally anyone who can speak more than one language has my admiration.
Disappointing that all the British has brought to the food party is fish and chips (which personally I would never eat)

While bread has been around for centuries, didn’t the “bread boom” really kick off from the British’s efficiencies and standards around production?
I don’t mind a sandwich now and then, but one of my cousins whose kid grew up in the UK really loves the stuff. Sandwiches, loaves, bread pudding, etc.
That's how I pronounce it. I also pronounce Guinness as "Heyy...kinAyeGettWunMorBeehrr!!", which I suspect isn't accurate.Hey, I just wanted to know if it was an Irish thing to say smiddicks

If you break it into syllables it makes more sense.
Worce - ter - shire
Wuss - teh - shur
I make everything from scratch pretty much but IKEA meatballs are so good, I hang my head in shame
Anyone hear use sous vide equipment? Was thinking of buying something on amazon tomorrow but undecided on which model is best.

Did you mean something akin to the "food saver" you find at Costco that sucks out moisture and air when you seal food in a freezer bag?

I think he is referring to the actual cooker.
If I got a soul vide it could keep my Instant Pot company in my laundry room.

Soul vide is the current state of mind for most Habs fans right now. Wandering aimlessly trying to find a reason to follow this team. There really isn't one, so it's an empty quest. We're lost souls. Or, with the Frenglish bent, "soul vide".
Brilliant typo.

Joules is nice, Anova is the top pick.
They work essentialy all the same, just have to choose wether you want to work with your phone/tablet or manual.
Make sure you buy two plastic inserts deep enough, about 10 liters, cambro makes a nice one that is insulated too, with the plastic cover. Its expensive but youll be using it all your life, plus its great to store sauces in the fridge.
Any restaurant retailer will have them in stock, but call before to know if they have the lid.
