Subject: RE: BS: Spotted Dick From: Bonecruncher Date: 02 Jun 05 - 09:57 PM LadyJean As cups and spoons come in various sizes determined by the manufacturer, such a "translation" could lead to a rather unappetising outcome. Why not just use your scales and the quantities by weight? Colyn. |
Subject: RE: BS: Spotted Dick From: rock chick Date: 03 Jun 05 - 07:12 PM I went out to dinner in a pub near me, they do a great Sunday lunch, anyway on the sweet menu was spotted Richard!! I asked what it was and was told it was spotted dick, this was said in a very a quite voice by the young girl, who by the way couldnt stop laughing) Apparently it is offensive to call it spotted dick now and Tescos have renamed it ( this is just another bit of our world going mad. I ordered spotted dick in a rather loud voice. It doesnt quite have the same ring about it asking for spotted Richard ;o)) rc |

Subject: RE: BS: Spotted Dick From: Dave'sWife Date: 04 Jun 05 - 02:13 PM Actually, the measurements for the ingredients were also given in ounces which is pretty easy to use in an American kitchen. If you don;t have a kitchen scale, a postal scale will do, just make sure you lay a large piece of parchement over the top to keep it clean. I once served a huge Irish dinner to my husband and two of his friends from, one from Italy and the other an American. I didn't have time to set out different courses, so I laid everything on the table Buffet style including the Hot Custard sauce for the steamed pudding. I had to go somewhere for half an hour and when I came back, I saw the other men with custard sauce on their vegetables! |
