I've been HAD again! BEEF DRIPPING CHIPS Food Review

Iceland food review. For more Iceland food reviews click this link • Iceland food

[@SuperLittleTyke]

You forgot to mention that these chips cost £2.75. I might try these on Tuesday. The pack shows no air fryer instructions, contrary to Iceland's big Spiel about air fryers a year ago.

[@mandymoo7406]

£2.75 HOW MUCH ,after beamish try blists Hill chips they are even better unless I was hungrier being in the cold sarth

[@tecnogof]

I was wondering about the price. £2.75 for 900 grams, roughly £3 per kilo. I'll give them a miss.

[@johnmurphy818]

Beef dripping chips in heron foods, absolutely yummi, not often you can buy them due to they sell out quickly. Try them you won't be disappointed.

[@johnmurphy818]

Harry Ramsden not bad, bút so expensive, Iceland sell these.

[@mydogeatspuke]

I imagine they'll need the same as any other chips do in the air fryer. I'm sure anyone who uses one would be able to figure that out on their own?

[@tismeagen684]

I was born and bred in Yorkshire and brought up on cooking using beef dripping and lard. We used to spread dripping and its brown jelly on bread with a little salt, delicious.

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

Both my Grandmother and Mother had beef fat chip pans and they were the best ever.

[@tecnogof]

Blocks of lard are cheap to buy, there's nothing stopping you from keeping a pan of beef dripping these days. Growing up, we kept a metal bowl in the fridge, used to keep it topped up by pouring the fat in it after cooking. Any time we wanted to cook something, we'd scrape some out the bowl to use, it'd be full of the flavors of meat juices, bacon and alsorts. I keep a block of lard in my fridge, I've been thinking about going back to the old ways of cooking.

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

@@tecnogof we had a ceramic bowl. It was always cool you you poured the warm juices into the bowl and next day could scrape the jelly off and put it in another bowl whilst using the beef dripping.

[@iainreid9822]

So did my Mum.

[@coolvoice7]

That could be me saying word for word about my grans chips. Cooked in beef dripping and, try as I might, I could not replicate them no matter how I tried. She emptied the fat into a container after it was cool then, cleaned the chip pan inside and out with a Brillo Pad. The fat was turned out upside down and any residue from the last chips cooked was scraped off. A ritual indeed but, oh those chips were Heaven sent, via granny Lena❤🕊️👍

@haveanotherpinacoladacooking oils went up when everyone started putting it in their diesel cars!

[@andrewcoates6641]

Gareth, I am Yorkshire born and bred and I can say that if you want your chips to be cooked in drippings or even lard you have to ask the person who is doing the cooking what they are using and the same applies to the choice of fish types that they are cooking too. I am glad to say that more fish and chip shops are displaying what they are cooking in and with, so their customers can make an informed decision about their preferences either on religious beliefs or moral values (eg, vegetarian or vegan) or in my case the taste of their foods, beef dripping all the way for me. I will even ask when was the cooking range last emptied out and cleaned before refilling with fresh fats. I’m afraid that some shops in areas of high immigration populations are focusing on dietary restrictions and not the taste of the food.

[@diamondderek848]

Loads of fish and chip shops now just say fish and chips such a price. They don't say what the fish is 😡

[@mandymoo7406]

​​@@diamondderek848yes my chippy of choice took down the haddock bit and replaced it with the word fish,im not a fish lover but this stuff didn't taste nice,I found out they were selling pollock,why not just tell you? this way they don't lose long term customers for good like me I could have bought a shossig UPDATE wives just checked online and they are now advertising as haddock,I wonder how many customers they have lost because the queues used to be out of the door and now they are quieter,just shows us in Yorkshire vote with our feet

[@andrewcoates6641]

If I suspect that they are lying then I’m on the phone to trading standards/ food hygiene department of the local council. No second chances!!

[@nigelh3253]

This is a good point that you make. At one time I imagine all fish and chips were cooked in beef dripping (lard). That was the fat that was available. Today cooking like this may be called 'traditional'. I know that Rick Steins fish and chips in Newquay, Cornwall offers a choice of 'traditional' or vegetable oil, such a sunflower. Personally, with all the fuss about saturated fat, I feel I should go sunflower. But does the f&c taste as good?

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers Andrew

[@acheface]

My favourite chippy up here in Northumberland uses beef dripping. It makes all the difference.

[@jonathanbicknell8435]

When I was a kid we used to spread beef dripping on bread with a bit of salt and pepper and some Marmite. It was spot on! :)

[@nickdavison9771]

I live in Yorkshire Baldie! The best chippies still use beef dripping, but I don't think that all of them do. Some of them mistakenly seem to think that Vegetarians and healthy cholesterol levels are more important than tasty chips...

[@TheChodax]

We know now that too much veg oil and not enough animal fats actually knackers your cholesterol balance. A certain amount of animal fat is actually good for you as long as the fat hasn't been industrially processed or hydrogenated.

[@arthurvasey]

On a similar matter, has anyone noticed that the only flavours of potato crisps, as we Brits call them, that are labelled as “Suitable for vegetarians” are the meat-flavoured ones? Since when was chicken, smoky bacon and beef vegetarian?

[@TheChodax]

@@arthurvasey most of these supposed meat crisps actually use hydrolysed whey protein which they can manipulate to taste like meat. It is vegetarian as it comes from milk but isn't vegan. There are still a few premium crisps brands that use meat drippings for flavouring, Pipers for instance claim Longhorn Beef Extract. That could be deceptive, could it be made with milk from Longhorn cows? UPDATE : They state the following; Our English Longhorn beef flavour is produced using meat that has been dry aged for 35 days to allow for a more succulent taste. The Barkers’ at Great Berwick Organic farm use sustainable farming methods to produce the very best. Excellent, real beef flavoured crisps again after decades of crap!

[@Paul-dz1jg]

Yes where I am in Yorkshire the fish and chip shops still cook in beef dripping the traditional way . And yes they are amazing 😁

[@MonsterJuiced]

Man Beamish is amazing. I remember going once when I was 14 or 15. There were these old posters in the entrance area with creepy smiles I couldn't stop laughing at. We couldn't stay for long but we got to see some of the old town area and I was blown away by it all. It was so beautiful.

Can't beat home made chips in the old chip pan in beef dripping fantastic

[@richwilliams9895]

Nothing beats Homemade deep fried chips. The price of frozen chips is going up every week yet potatoes have stayed low priced

[@gerrylewis5281]

I usually only use either duck fat, goose fat or mostly beef dripping to cook with. I only use beef dripping in my frier. Oils tend to need changing quite often and ends up in the rubbish. Beef dripping however? if you do get bits of batter etc floating in it. Just bring it up to heat and pour into a bowl of cold water and leave it. All the bits sink to the bottom and you end up with clean dripping on the top, which you can reuse. I think you get better crispness with dripping. Back to the chips 🤔🤔. Going back to working in my dads chippy, ( and at home), we always “ blanched” our chips first for about 8 minutes. Then just keep them to one side until needed. Don’t over blanch just until they start to turn brown. When needed, just put into the frier. They will then come out really crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. Or if your an oven chip person? Lay the chips on a tray and brush a good amount of melted dripping. The advertising on these chips was a con and I wouldn’t’ waste money on them😁😖😖. Still a good review. Can’ wait to see what’s next. 👍🏻👍🏻.

[@spex357]

I lived in a chip shop in the 60's on the border between Oswaldtwistle and Church in Lancashire, it's now a Bus stop. The dripping came in boxes a foot square, the Fish came from Fleetwood in the early morning, until the Cod wars. Chips had to be blanched or the cooking times would be too long for the Mill workers lunchtime. It's a habit I still have today. Yesterdays fries for my evening steak were blanched in the morning and cooled in the fridge.
