Haven't eaten these in about 30 years

[julesverne]

True lancastrian delicacy. Cant find them anywhere else and the yorkshire missus has never heard of them.

kudos points for any non lancastrian who can name em and when they're traditionally eaten.

 

[gassafe]

Mouldy old peas

[Rickster123]

Not really a main meal is it. Why don't you just have fresh peas? Is there a war on?!

Dunno if it's just my age but curly wurlys along with wagon wheels, don't look half the size they used to be.

Ya cant beat proper black pudding used to by it on tommyfield market in oldham which is where i grew up aswell for my gran when i did her shopping but havent been in about 10 yrs since she passed away god bless her.

I find it funny i only live in bradford which is about 30 mile away and no ones ever heard of black peas.

Be interesting to see what regional foods are around that nobody else eats.

I meant mmm!

I draw the line at cow heel, elder, tripe and trotters.

 

[julesverne]

I had tripe in spain a few years ago just about edible as it was done in a casserole. But def wouldnt try the others. My gran used always go on about having sheeps brain on toast as a kid. Not sure i could stomach that

Another thing we had every night for tea was '**** with sugar on' that's what my mam told me every night when I asked the question.

My old man used to love lambs brains. My mum cooked them with onion, turmeric and a bit of red chilli, and eggs so they'd end up like spicy scrambled eggs.

But the texture of the brain was bloody horrible! Eeeuuurghhh! Still shudder at the memory..

 

[Gray0689]

Parched peas takes me back to my youth
With the spuds on Preston market mmm

[mountainman]

I almost had pie and mash last week in Romford Market but was overruled, next time will be MY choice.

Not sure about sheep's brain but I once ate deep-fried cow brain. Spent a week in Transylvania and had a day-trip to Bran (Dracula's) Castle, on the way back the minibus stopped at a roadside restaurant. For some reason I thought that my school level French would suffice at getting me through the Romanian menu without the assistance of the tour guide. I proudly pointed and said 'creier pane', thinking it was some cheesy type bread and even when it was served I was none the wiser. It was light and fluffy with something like chives in, I thought I was eating something like deep-fried philadelphia haha. At some point, the guide asked me if I knew what I was eating.. I was a bit horrified but I was with a group of other lads and decided I'd polish it off not to look like a woose.

After that, the swines ordered it at very opportunity for me for the rest of the trip.
