With all duty respect, it is always adviced not to take the jam or the cream from the common plate and spread directly on the scone or you will risk to have crumbs when you put the knife back in, not polite if there are other guests. You take a little quantity of jam and put it aside on your plate then spread it. I'm not British , but that's how i was told to do. The video is lovely to watch,thank you.

Comments like these are proof that commoners use etiquette to make others feel uncomfortable, rather than enjoy themselves in any setting. If I watched someone smear jam on the plate before the bread, I would assume the person is challenged. Don't assume that every ridiculous thing stuffy people did in the past is still applicable today. Use a lighter hand and butter your scone, not the plate. You're not 5. You can do this.

Another etiquette: no banging sounds with teaspoon against cup or cream. No sipping or slurping sound while drinking tea. Next etiquette: marmalade is for breakfast only and jam for afternoon or evening tea. Another: no elbows on the table. I learned all that above from the nuns who ran their boarding schools like an army where pupils marched in twos, learned strictest school rules like "no running allowed in corridors." Nuns were like the army marms who knocked coarse-mannered girls into fine ladies. They used to forever correct my faux pas. At the end, I saw the values of etiquette.

Hello Rita, I work as an English teacher in boarding schools in the summer time around London, and I always wonder what it would be live to attend a boarding school as a child. Care to create a video? Would love to watch. I am also amazed at the fact that along the rugby fields, horse stables, the Greek history and French classes, the balled dance studio, and the big performance hall they also get classes full of sewing machines and they do create their own fashion shows! I never thought this could be part of their education.

Is it that the tea cups are lighter weight?

I am English and your video really made me smile! There is no rule about how to stir your tea. Why would you want to make a mess with it anyway? It is considered very common to put your milk in first! This is a complete no-no if you are out to impress! I have NEVER in all my life seen anyone try to break open a scone. I would die if I was with someone who did that! It is NOT bread! It doesn't matter how you hold your cup as long as you use the handle. Usually here everyone has their own individual jam and cream and is at liberty to put their knife in it if they wish. This is because it's very difficult to stop crumbs getting into the jam no matter how hard you try. You are right about the Devon and Cornwall thing but most people put the cream on first, then the jam. Hope this helps!
@kakuella8 жыл бұрын
Actually.. you don't use your butter knife to directly grab jam & butter. Unless utensils didn't came out with j&b, always use the utensils that came out with j&b to grab your desire amount and put it on your plate so you can spread it on your scone with your own butter knife. In this way everyone can enjoy clean j&b. You're welcome.

Put the cream and jam on your plate first if it's a communal cream/jam. High Tea is for a high table, Low Tea is for a low table. From my understanding, High Tea was less posh than Low and a creation of the working class. At Low Tea, one would pick up cup and saucer whereas High, only cup was necessary. My grandmother instructed me as we had Tea every day, so this is my understanding as an American.

In the past, the MIFs (milk in first), were those people who did it to prevent their cups from breaking with the heat of the water.

The milk being poured before or after is still a class indicator. It stems from only the best china could tolerate high temperatures, so TEA could be poured first, followed by the required amount of milk.

The bigger handle is very important so you can support it with the middle finger and avoid contact with the actual cup. "Doing the hook" means the cup pivots down and burns your hand, especially if you like to drink tea when it's still plasma-hot (like me!). Hotels that provide cups with tiny little ring handles please take note.

What is this " tea trolley" the gentleman came out with? I've never saw any of them hold loose leaves so wondering the term on what's the true name thanks

One particular thing you did not mention is, is the importance of drinking tea from a beautiful Porcelain Tea Set.👍 Taste a lot better than out of a plastic mug. Lol

if you are using clotted cream or butter put that first as it is less messy, if you are using whipped cream put that after the jam

@@mtlfoodsnob Why thank you for your response and question. Wow! How lucky am I?! I'm on lockdown here in East Hollywood, so I'm just cooking at home. I did two perfectly fried organic eggs with fresh ground sea salt and coarse pepper, two slices of organic sourdough, toasted and topped with imported irish butter, thin sliced organic avocado, and gently softened havarti cheese, with a side of red pepper, eggplant and garlic spread blended with habanero sauce.

Wow wow wow, that's an incredible dish description there ! I had to google "Irish butter" and holy molly, it looks like fat heaven. Hope you're having a relaxing weekend !

How does tea time work with daily meals? Do you fast before tea time? When is lunch, is there lunch? I'm American. No clue. But I would like to learn.

Back in the day, tea time was made to fill the gap between lunch and dinner. That was because dinner was eaten quite late at night, so a tea time made sense.
