Without chocolate?
Just makes no sense. |  |

In your defence I tend to agree with you on butter.
I love pure unsalted butter. And yes even on croissant over jam.
Jam is too sweet for croissant. |
It’s got to be good quality jam and not too much of it. I’m quite easy on whether its salted or unsalted, but it works best if chilled.
As for jam, we used to have a lot when I was growing up. Rarely now. That shows how much food variety, availability and quality improved in my lifetime. It was actually one of the real silent benefits of being in the EU for me. I suspect the variety will remain but the quality will fall, sadly, though maybe not.
Had many a good nosebag in America and Canada despite GM and all that. The oddest was in Calgary where I had strawberries the size of billiard balls. Brilliant flavour and everything and it was the middle of winter. I suspect the genetics mob had something to do with them but I piled in! |  | | |

Pub called the Spread Eagle in York used to do something called the "UFO" - an enormous yorkshire pudding filled with onion gravy and roast beef - washed down with Timothy Taylors Landlord - does that count? |
I’ve seen them in a few places around the UK. The UK equivalent of clam chowder in a bread bowl in the States. Both equally delicious but in very different ways. |  |

That actually sounds alright.
Some of my northern friends introduced me to cheesy chips and gravy. I was suprised at how nice it is considering it sounds disgusting |
I knew you'd appreciate Roms. I am a fan of cheesy chips, especially cheesy taco chips but not sure I'm ready to add the gravy yet. | | | |

Croissant. Slice. Cheddar cheese, caramelised red onions, dijon mustard inside.
10 mins in oven.
Enjoy and repeat. |  | | |

But this is very similar to my original point about butter + peanut butter. I dont think you need the extra butter on a croissant. I mean, the croissant is 95% butter already - you really only need the raspberry jam to make it perfect |
Jam on a croissant  ?
Jam on leftover cold Yorkshire pudding is a joy.
But absolutely not on croissant. |  |

Wasn't thinking of covering um with gravy, but rather placing um on the side and gently dipping um in the gravy as recommended by the chef. I miss English cuisine... By the way what kinda butter do you put on yer biscuits and definitely not on yer croissants? Kerrygold I hope? |
I like a bit of Kerrygold, good shout. Or Country Life. Lady Dollers swears by President. And I'm currently on the Anchor.
BTW, onion rings on a roast dinner is not "English cuisine" and I doubt even Rommers would place himself anywhere near the word "chef"! |  |

I don't see the point of unsalted butter. You might as well just eat the grout out of the walls. | |

maybe not jam, but surely confiture de framboise would be OK? | | | |

That's a short step away from the national dish of Canada, Poutine. Made properly, Poutine has cheese curds rather than a hard cheese like cheddar.
Mind you, it's -40 for 6 months of the year in much of Canada, so they need fuelling up. | | | |

You should try the national dish of Bhutan. Lots of whole chillies cooked in a cheese sauce. It’s a bit warm. | |

At the risk of sounding a weirdo, I have the same pudding every night when I'm at home which involves a Digestive biscuit - a chopped banana topped with a few spoons of Greek yoghurt, a crumbled Digestive and a spoon of honey. Honey helps you sleep, bit of fibre in the Digestive, Greek yoghurt is good for the gut, and the banana guarantees a morning dump  |  |

Interesting! Never heard of honey being good for sleep. Wouldn't the sugar in it do the opposite? | |

Ever been to South Africa ? Specifically Durban. I sought this out whilst I was there:

Yes, that's exactly the same.
Unsalted butter tastes of butter, like most things once you get rid of the additives, you're left with a purer product to appreciate.
I promise you. It's like no longer taking sugar in tea. Once your taste adapts you'd not want to go back. |  |

No, I haven’t and the picture doesn’t sell it either! Clam chowder worked very well though. | |

The Digestive biscuit is the only ingredient in that pudding that isn't a sleep aid (bananas, yoghurt and honey all help to produce melatonin) I usually cycle about 20-30 miles every day, so don't really need much help passing out after dinner anyway! I don't have any caffeine or eat any other refined sugars after 5pm, as they mess with my sleep pattern. | |

My sleep pattern's constantly a mess so I might give some of that a try. | |
