I'm a scouser, never put beer or bitter in but as you say each household had their own take. Will have to give it a go. Also, I make mine in the pressure cooker and cut my potatoes about the size of an egg. When serving I plate up half of the potatoes the rest I stir in to thicken the stew.

3 part beef 1 part lamb for better flavour. Also, flour the meat. Helps to get colour on the beef and also helps to thicken the stew later on.

My mum always used to add barley at the time to add the stock, it thickens it as well. Delicious.

Scouse is 19th century working class food. The original meat (if you had any) would have been mutton. But, I'm happy to see it made with beef. I also like to add some celery and Worcestershire sauce.
@chefrick2473 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much and I love the sound of mutton, nice and slow cooked. I'm from Manchester and know that Scouse is sacred. I checked with all my wonderful Scouse friends and got about 50 different versions! I recon that it's only Scouse if you eat it whilst in, or thinking about Liverpool. Otherwise it's just stew.
@philipritson88213 жыл бұрын
I'd agree with you 100%. I do know lamb/mutton is traditional but most Scouse is made with beef these days (much of it in the form of mince). The pickled red cabbage is a fantastic touch. I always eat it with bottled-pickled German/Dutch/Polish red cabbage. And yes I have a Scouse heritage. My Mother and Grandmother spent the war living on Upper Parliament Street in Toxteth and then moved to Speke when my Grandad returned after the war (He was taken prisoner at Singapore). I am technically a wool because I was born in Whiston. But, it's never beef stew in this house. It's Scouse and my daughters hate it. I'm counting the days until they move out and I can make it again.

Actually it's a sailors dish from the 18th century originating from the Baltic ports of Europe. It's real name is Lobscouse and was probably introduced to Liverpool by German sailors.

No no no no NO! Scouse or Lapskaus is traditionally made in my hometown from basic.. Meat (whatever is at hand) Stock Carrots Onions Potatoes Anything else is not proper traditional Scouse it's an adaptation which is fine but not proper Scouse.

New suscriber I Was born in Liverpool but brought un in Spain, my favourite dish when I visited my Nana who lived in Waterloo was scouse, I am going to try your recipe as hers was different she used to use lamb and also celery!
@chefrick2473 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for the lovely comment! When I was deciding which version of Scouse to film I spoke to many people in Liverpool and each had their own recipe. I nearly did Lamb which I love! Also I love celery!! I think its like each house has their own special way, but anyway.... It really is a wonderful dish and will give any Scouser memories from home!

Always lamb. My nan use to make blind scouse, in ww2 no meat so they boiled bones of a lamb cut to get the flavour. Great video

Followed this recipe today and loved it!, Don’t tend to like Scouse in its shall we say “traditional” form which i know for me being a scouser from Knotty Ash is abit controversial but make it into a scouse inspired stew with the bitter included and it’s texture changes completely!, Fair play to you and keep it up!

That’s a great trick with the thyme. The proper meat is actually mutton. Beef was very rarely eaten for most of human history as cows were not only more valuable for their milk but they were also more sentient than other creatures. Beef really came onto the scene during the conquering era of the 1400’s onward where soldiers needed larger animal meat sources for pillaging equatorial nations. Super elegant preparation and execution though! Cheers.
