National food of Great Britain

If you ask foreigners to name some typical English dishes, they will probably say ‘Fish and chips’ and stop. It is disappointed, but true, that there is no tradition in England of eating in restaurants, because their food doesn’t lend itself to such preparation. English cooking is found in the home, where it is possible to time the dishes to perfection. Their basic ingredients, when fresh, are so full of flavour that they haven’t had to invent sauces and complex recipes to disguise their natural taste. But Cynics will say that British have no ‘cuisine’ themselves .
