If you think about it logically, the jam goes on first, so that you can dollop the cream on, you can't spread jam onto a big dollop of cream. Butter goes before jam (say on toast), because it's a small amount of butter that you spread, and the jam after.

[@eviltwin2322]

The beans thing is a bit multinational. Heinz is an American company, baked beans is a British adaptation of an American recipe, but many producers outsource now so the beans may well be manufactured and packaged in Germany, and while we're still in the EU that can be considered pretty local. So nope, nothing to do with WW2, just modern business practices. You would use brown sauce just the same way you'd use ketchup, on whatever food you want. A similar brand to HP is called Daddies, which I think is actually American. It might just not be that popular there.

An additional aside comment: In addition to some of the US stores I saw mentioned for getting HP Sauce, you can also find it at Cost Plus World Market in their British Foods section. They have all sorts of great British food products there (both sweet and savory), including Heinz Baked Beans and one of my addictions, Salad Cream! And I've been able to find Heinz Baked Beans at almost any grocery store in my area, although it sounds like the recipes are slightly different between US and British made versions, so I may try buying both to do a comparison test...

[@Simonsvids]

I would say Gower peninsula and South Carmarthenshire areas is where you would get a so called "Welsh" breakfast. Most parts of the country have pickled cockles in jars with vinegar but I think thats disgusting. Much nicer having fresh ones in their shells from Llanelli or Carmarthen market or even getting them yourself from the beaches. I have them with butter but you have to boil them in their shells to get them to open up. For this reason us south Carmarthenshire people never have them for breakfast as it is too much work - we have them for supper or tea with bread and butter. I think the "Welsh Breakfast" thing is something some hotels/B & B's here on the Gower/Carmarthenshire just made up

[@Ynysmydwr]

Totally agree with your last comment, Simon.

[@Ynysmydwr]

>> beans in a ramekin: Brits seems to get unfathomably triggered by such things

[@redf7209]

The breakfast does not need heinz to be an english breakfast but most british people woud swear heinz was the best brand. A few years ago the recipe was changed with tomato sauce weakened. Branston beans are now actually better and more like the original heinz. I usually see tomato and heinz beans as interchangeable. The 'banger' is often used to describe any sausages but is usually sold as such when it fails to have the meat content to be legally described as a sausage. Mushrooms seem to have so many ways of being cooked or presented in a breakfast and can make or break the meal. I prefer breakfasts with fried bread to have with the tomato that again can be presented in different forms. Don't worry so much what the rules are all the time, you do fine to do what works for you.

[@barbaracaires7612]

The best English breakfast places are served at greasy spoons. Were they have fried bread and hash browns, and the tomato is actually tinned chopped tomato that you just mix with the whole plate and everything tastes amazing. And literally, a full English will cost no more than 5 pounds at those places.

Baked beans have been sold in the UK since 1886 and manufacture in the UK since 1905. Unsure if they are still manufactured here. A full English needs bubble with it or a suitable replacement, hash browns for example.

I recommend YHA Pen Y Pass very beautiful and the perfect location to take the Pyg/Miners track to trek or hike Snowdon.

Being welsh and Having lived in wales all my life - 36yrs, I have never ate a welsh breakfast, it’s always english style lol, I live in south wales, there possibly are some places that may add laver bread and cockles to basically an english breakfast, & on the menu call it a “Welsh” breakfast, it would usually be in the gower/swansea area here in south wales where you’d get them, but only when they are in season, I also I don’t even think that cockles and laverbread are that popular of a dish any more though, especially not with the youngsters, but you can buy them from the market separately to make your own breakfast I think thats still a thing 🤔 and if they do a nearby cafe would probably be serving a welsh breakfast, I don’t know I Typically I try to avoid them as best I can as I am not partial to seafood & have tried Cockles, but never again 😐 lol.

[@jonathanth9636]

I was born in Chester, raised for part of the time in Conway and have also lived in the US for a number of years. Please stop hunting for English, Welsh etc. breakfasts. These national labels are a marketing affectation of the last thirty years. In the U.K we have cooked breakfasts. A cooked breakfast of the British and Irish isles centres about selection of eggs, sausages, bacon and a number of the other items you have encountered (tomatoes, mushrooms, fried bread, black pudding, potato farl in Ulster and there may be other things I've never seen). Beans were a no-no when I was young and certainly never served in a little pot. Hash browns are an American item only recently introduced as a result of them being served in the McD breakfast. As you were in Conway I would expect a cooked breakfast to look pretty much the same as one in Chester. The only thing that would make it Welsh is you are in Wales. Lava bread is more a thing of S. Wales I understand. Certainly I never saw it in Conway, but have in Cardiff. HP is a good condiment but as there are other brands the generic terms is brown sauce. A1 Steaksauce is a very good substitute for HP.

[@trojanette8345]

I've been to England B 4. However, I never tried clotted cream. I'm curious.......in your opinion is clotted cream the same as what we, in America call cream cheese? No matter which way you slice it.......to me the mere mention of 'full English Breakfast' conjures up thoughts of clogged arteries: pork, blood, sausage, clotted cream. Enough to make most American doctors and health conscious citizens gasp or pass out in horror.

[@henryphillips6263]

Clotted cream is its own thing (nothing like cream cheese apart from the consistency). You make it by slowly heating heavy cream. You're left with a super thick cream that is really buttery, with a thin crust on top. It's usually only eaten with scones, but we also make the best Ice Cream out of it! I find your opinion of the full English quite funny considering the stereotypes of calorific American food :D It's usually only eaten when you have a big day ahead of you. The lighter option is a bacon/sausage butty. Which is just fried back bacon/sausage in a buttered roll with either Ketchup or Brown sauce!

I’m English from Yorkshire as a child in the fifties in fact as an adult we’ve never had baked beans with a full English breakfast when at home. We would have both sides fried bread sprinkled with white pepper with the fry up, definitely not black pepper. The toast would be after the breakfast. I don’t know when or where the beans became a standard for cafe breakfasts, most likely at greasy spoon trucking cafes, to fill up the drivers. Love your videos. Cream before the jam is our preference

[@karenogush5622]

I love the full English Breakfast, but only ever had the FULL version (as described by many people on here already) while in the UK. But, even though I also grew up eating and loving pancakes and bacon, I've become a convert to English Breakfast and will often make a pseudo scaled down version with egg, (American) bacon, cooked tomato, mushrooms, beans, and toast. Although I can't stand black pudding, so when I was in UK I would substitute white pudding (which is pretty much black pudding without the blood). Regarding cream or jam first, I always liked spreading the cream on the entire scone and then adding the jam on top.

[@donkmeister]

I spied no bubble'n'squeak... Bubble and squeak is the quintessential English (nay, British) cooked breakfast food. Leftover veg, leftover potatoes, fried up to a hard crust (anyone who says it shouldn't have a crust is not to be trusted) and served up with any of the other traditional breakfast items. Some are strict and say B&S is boiled cabbage and boiled potatoes fried up, but really just so long as you have brassicas, and potatoes fried up to a crust, it is bubble and squeak.

As someone English that place is definitely not a locals place and seeing beans in a bowl means it’s definitely not to an Englishman’s taste plus a sign of overcharging.

The full English varies from place to place around England. The one you had was a bit pretentious with the beans in a separate container. Beans should be free to roam around your plate with preferably a fried egg that has a runny yoke and some toast (or fried bread) to mop it up it all up with once the solids have been eaten. Definitely mix and match items on the fork and change it about with each mouthfull maybe sausage and mushrooms, then maybe the same with beens and egg in that egg yoke with brown sauce (HP Fruity brown is my fave brown sauce) (Oh edited, because I forgot hash browns and black pudding not that I like the latter personally) Tomatoes should either be cooked or tinned not fresh.

Hi. This is probably all going to sound over-the-top critical, but these comments ARE intended to be constructive, and helpful to viewers who might want to follow in your footsteps. Honest! I'm sorry but I think you did indeed "stuff it up" by looking for cockles and laverbread in North Wales -- that's like going to York and being miffed because you can't find any jellied eels! I wonder: were the people who told you that cockles and laverbread were typical of North Wales the same ones who fed you that total nonsense about baked beans coming from Germany? :) Cockles and laverbread are readily available, especially from markets, in the Swansea area of SOUTH Wales, as a local speciality -- but even there their inclusion in breakfasts is very much a "minority taste". It's one that establishments looking to extract the tourist dollar will readily exploit, of course, if they think that advertising a "Welsh breakfast" will serve that purpose, but don't be fooled into believing that it's normal fare anywhere. There is, in any case, really just one basic British-and-Irish fried breakfast (a.k.a. "heart attack on a plate" -- almost no-one who is not regularly engaged in heavy physical work would eat it every day) which has regional variations (e.g. additional white pudding and farl, etc. in Ireland; lorne sausage, tattie scones, etc. in Scotland; the aforementioned extra ingredients in South Wales). BTW, I found your ordering of (sweet) scones, cream, and jam at breakfast rather weird. Are you sure that that wasn't just so you could include the ooh-is-it-jam-first-or-cream-first "controversy" which has become such a clichéed feature of Americans-sample-British-food videos? I think the inclusion of such a sequence may be a condition of being allowed to film in the UK :) Anyway, it's a free country so, in the words of that good old (1937) London song: "Everything's free and easy; do as you darn well pleasy". BTW (part two), if you want to pile a bit-of-this-and-a-bit-of-that onto your fork, Josh, or you prefer to give your banger your undivided attention, that's totally up to you. "I know I'm not supposed to eat black pudding all by itself". C'mon, Josh: it's not yet on the list of unBritish activities (at least, not this side of Brexit). The most I would say in that regard is that "mixing it all up" is probably closest to the original spirit of the British breakfast: that's why the serving of baked beans in a rather poncey little pot (as in your video) does tend to scream "this is the kind of pricey establishment where portion control is everything; don't come here if you're hungry". Which brings me to the final part of this rant (those of you who are still awake will be pleased to know). Why, why, oh why -- when it comes to eating out -- do American vloggers always seem to be such suckers for style-over-substance tourist traps? "Wow: this pub's got Ye Olde wooden beams: that must make paying three times as much as locals do for larger, more succulent portions at their nasty neon-lit chippies so totally worth it". I'm still looking for the KZbin guide which will introduce supermarket cafeterias -- where you can get a perfectly good "full English" for under a fiver -- to American viewers.

Or go to a greasy spoon cafe.

[@shannondorsheehan1706]

You are so right thank you the only other thing that I had to say about Josh is for him to have a bit more manners when he's eating nobody wants to look at that and nobody else in this establishment I'm sure wanted to look at that

[@ftumschk]

They're not into cockles and laverbread in North Wales - indeed, I'm not sure they even "grow" them there. You'll find cockles and laverbread aplenty in South Wales - especially Swansea Market - so you need to go there if you want to taste these delicacies.

[@quentinbryantart5684]

Little fact for you, the 'HP' in HP sauce stands for House's of Parliament, because HP sauce was invented by a chef that worked in the Houses of Parliament.

[@anglachelphurba9093]

Mushrooms are a must for the full English, but I do not include the black pudding. Did you try the kippers for breakfast in Scotland? And yes, a banger is a banger whenever you eat them, but especially around Nov 5th.

[@solatiumz]

I prefer either grilled tomatoes or plum tomatoes. And they never cook the bacon enough for me, I prefer it crispy.

[@Anne231154]

Baked beans used to be pork and beans but around WW2 (I think) there was rationing and meat was scarce so they took out the meat and it stayed like that.

[@10thdoctor15]

HP (which stands for Houses of Parliament) sauce is also made by Heinz.

[@nigelmiller407]

Forget brown sauce try Lea & Perrins Worcesteshire Sauce vastly superior to any brown sauce. Alternatively try a smoked kipper for breakfast but watch out for them bones.

[@jasonlaws1274]

Nigel Miller you sir are talking out of your hoop!!

[@MrsG66]

Heinz baked beans are made in England. Wigan has the worlds biggest baked bean factory making over 3 million cans day 👍

[@hxhxhanhanxhxh]

I always have mushrooms. Fried bread is nice. Sometimes tinned tomatoes. bacon, egg, sausage, beans, black pudding, toast, hash browns sometimes. Ketchup or Daddies brown sauce. Ermm...

[@guitarmatt191]

Did you have any thoughts on the bacon? I know British bacon (which is usually 'back' bacon and more like a thick ham) differs a lot from the bacon you'd be used to in the US. No offence but I much prefer ours... Can't beat chowing down on a bacon sandwich smothered in brown sauce!

[@RobJTeasdale]

Have you tried Australian bacon? Awful stuff. Just a big slice of fat with a thin strip of meat at the bottom.

[@davidwallin7518]

And, it should ALWAYS be smoked bacon.

[@simhedgesrex7097]

Marmalayd, not Marmalahd in the UK. People would only say Marmalahd if they are being (knowlingly) pretentious.

[@mancuniandevil6452]

That's a half-assed english breakfast. Lazy by the place in Chester, the tomatoes should be fried and instead of toast it should be fried bread.

[@crazycatfish183]

I think those were tourist prices. London is about that. One egg and one sausage is a bit mean imo. No fried bread (which should be friend in the bacon fat), no bubble and squeak. Hash browns are a late US addition. Bit stingy although you did get a drink.

[@TheMalart]

I am pretty sure that baked beans are not part of a 'traditional' full english. (Neither are hash browns), but are a more recent addition. But i guess like everything... things evolve... sometimes for the better and sometimes...not...And as the comments below say, fried bread would definitely qualify as one of the original 'ingredients'. I'm a new subscriber guys, really enjoying your videos and vlogs.. definitely feel the good time you are having. :)

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

This was so funny to watch! Um I’m welsh but I don’t think I’ve ever had a ‘Welsh’ breakfast??!! I’m not sure but, I’ve had a full breakfast with everything you had but with added toast AND fried toast and sometimes hash browns. ... are those a Welsh thing??!! There’s lots of ‘belly buster’ full cooked breakfasts around here which is crazy... like 3 of everything!!! I do love a cooked breccie but only now and again haha

[@solatiumz]

I always thought hash browns were American???

[@nigel8499]

@@solatiumz yes they are.

[@nigel8499]

Basically same as English (unless very authentic..area specific) or in Tesco cafe (which is poor) ask for Welsh breakfast and get English. North Wales.

[@melissatravellover6477]

Breaky has a "C" in it??!!

[@ttothep2443]

You need fried bread and hash browns on there too. Don't mix it all up on the fork - that's nasty. You also need some ketchup or daddies to dip your sausage (banger is just a nickname so it's fine to call it that at anytime). HP stands for Houses of Parliament. Heinz beans are made in the UK, the cafe probably uses German beans as they're cheaper. Jam first, it's acts as a glue, if you put cream on first you squish it all off when adding jam. I've lived in Wales all of my life and have no idea what a Welsh breakfast is. You've been told a few porky's methinks.

[@eileenhaveron]

Always have mushrooms. Slow fry 'em in lots of butter.

[@rehabwales]

Definitely should have gone to South Wales for Welsh breakfasts. Swansea/ Gower is best as cockles and lavabread are produced there. There's a place called The Cwtch in Swansea that serves a good breakfast.

[@rojavida]

Bless you. I love how you try to experience authenticity. It doesn’t always be. Beleivable

[@jeannerodgers]

Lava bread distinguishes Welsh breakfast from English. 🙂

[@DanielRWomack]

A good full English is simply one of the true pleasures of living.
