We always have fun there, and always marvel in how good British cooking actually is. Yes, some of the old standards are heavy on the creams and fat and low on taste, but some of it is truly marvelous.

As they say, you can scoff at British cooking, but you shouldn't forget that essential beers (bitter ales), cheeses (Cheddar, Stilton, Wensleydale), sauces (Worcestershire), and baked goods (Sally Lunn buns, pasties, scones) are part of the lexicon thanks to the Brits.

So with that, a couple of great websites:

The Great British Kitchen - a one-stop for British recipes
eggbaconchipsandbeans - a tribute to the English fry-up
