keeno Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Bacon and black pudding. In a bap.Why do people up here have so many words for rolls? I'm from edinburgh and it's just that. A roll, I've been quoted everything from morning roll, baps, buns, softies, bread roll (what else is it going to be made from?) and even people calling them rowies ( i thought this was the name for a buttery but some people seem to use it for rolls too)Also people seem to call pastries (like croissants) all sorts of bizarre things too.What is properly ace-ic and is simply alien to anyone up north is chippy brown sauce. Salt and sauce (or just the sauce on it's own) beats salt and vinegar any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salt and sauce (or just the sauce on it's own) beats salt and vinegar any day.No-one calls a bap/softie/bun a rowie. You might be confused because rowies/butteries occasionally get called rolls.When I was at uni a friend of mine from Glasgow got really confused when she went into a bakers and asked for a roll only to be given a buttery. She didn't have a clue what it was.Butteries are also ace-ic by the way. Especially ones from Aitkens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No siree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No siree.It basically IS vinegar. AFAIK it's just vinegared down brown sauce. I can understand why people who dislike brown sauce won't like it. My gf isn't a big fan of brown sauce though and even she likes it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I don't think I've ever come across this "chippy sauce".Speaking of ace-ic and food. I'm going to be back in Scotland for 4 weeks starting from Sunday. A month of eating awesome stuff awaits. I can't wait to get a good chipper, some haggis, proper cooked breakfast, roast dinners etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gf isn't a big fan of brown sauce though and even she likes itI love salt, vinegar, and brown sauce. I just despise chippy sauce. I think that my hatred perhaps stems from the fact that I have always received lashings and lashings of it, drowning my haggis supper in needless overpowering flavours.
