Not related to anything, but I'd like to see some of the visiting Brits try American fish and chips.
Full credit to them for creating the dish, it's a damn fine one. But I think we've perfected it over here. They seem to do a single huge piece of fish, some vinegar, and some mushy peas(?!?!)
No, my friends. The best fish and chip plate comes with tartar sauce and coleslaw. Mushy peas? What? You want some crispy, sweet coleslaw to cleanse your palate. Trust me on this.
I know they are (rightfully) enjoying Texas BBQ and huge burgers, but I'd advise them to try our take on fish and chips. They might be absolutely shocked at how good it is.
A huge piece of fish is for the simpletons, you want little bites of well battered fish, that's the way to do it.
Exactly right. And I mean, our pieces aren't exactly tiny; you'll need multiple bites to get through one. But it's also not one big clunky piece.
Big pieces of fish are fine. They just can't be overly thick, and the breading needs to be airy and crispy.
