Getting to know the English...

An American, I've never really had much interaction with the people of England until... oddly enough ... I moved to Scotland. I'm about to celebrate two years of dwelling on one of the Orkney Islands and during these two years I've met many English men and English women. "The English" have always struck me as rather mellow, laid back, openly friendly and relativly peaceful folk.

Well... that is until I met English Mustard.

I made a potato salad today with fresh onions, new tatties, greek yogurt and a generous few dollops of this fragrant yellow stuff fae doon sooth. Upon sitting down at the dinner table I took a nice big bite, spat fire like a dragon and ran three laps around the farm while screaming for Erlend to throw water in my face..

I shall never look at The English the same way again...

in that case, you'd better steer clear of horseradish sauce with your beef too ...!!

Dijon is much nicer :o), or wholegrain with honey....mmm

Deckhand from back on the farm


well living on orkney i thought you would have been dealing more with scottish people and customs rather than our neighbours south of the border,of course me being in exile for so long i know nothing about the two cultures anymore i suppose

Things, just take a wee bit less and you will soon love Colemans English mustard! I had an American pal in Turkey who used to eat teaspoons of the stuff - as if it was fudge or similar - while waiting for the food to be rolled in. He did it so frequently that he must(ard) have liked it, not just for show. Try a Guiness along side, it goes very well!

One should not forget the grain of salt.

Hidden depths. Fpu has always thought so. That cool exterior can conceal a fiery heart...
