English cuisine
English cuisine encompasses the cooking styles, traditions and recipes associated with England.
It has distinctive attributes of its own, but also shares much with wider British cuisine, largely due to the importation of ingredients and ideas from places such as North America, China, and India during the time of the British Empire and as a result of post-war immigration.
English cuisine history
In the Early Modern Period the food of England was historically characterised by its simplicity of approach and a reliance on the high quality of natural produce. Traditional meals have ancient origins, such as bread and cheese, roasted and stewed meats, pies, boiled vegetables and broths, and freshwater and saltwater fish.

SausagesEnglish sausages are colloquially known as
"bangers". They are distinctive in that they are usually made
from fresh meats and rarely smoked, dried, or strongly flavoured.
England will stock at least a dozen types of English sausage: not only Cumberland and Lincolnshire but often varieties such as pork and apple, pork and herb; pork and mozzarella, and others. There are estimated to be around 400 sausage varieties in the United Kingdom.

SandwichesEngland can claim to have given the world
the word "sandwich", although the eponymous John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich was not the first to add a filling to bread.
English sandwiches are made with two slices of bread, or some kind of roll.
Common types of sandwich are roast beef, chicken salad, ham and mustard, cheese and pickle, egg mayonnaise, prawn mayonnaise, tuna and jam.
A light breakfast might consist of breakfast cereal, muesli, boiled or scrambled eggs, toast and conserves or sometimes poached kippers.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, the upper classes ate elaborate breakfasts including such dishes as kedgeree and devilled kidneys.
Now, the substantial breakfast is the full English breakfast. A traditional full English breakfast includes bacon, fried or scrambled eggs, fried or grilled tomatoes, fried mushrooms, fried bread or toast with butter, sausages and black pudding, usually served with a mug of tea.

The Sunday roast was once the most common feature of English cooking. It is traditionally eaten every Sunday.
It includes roast potatoes accompanying a roasted joint of meat such as beef, lamb, pork, duck or chicken and assorted other vegetables, themselves generally boiled and served with a gravy or roasted with the meat in its juices, which are then used as or added to the gravy.
Sauces and jellies are chosen depending on the type of meat: horseradish or various mustards for beef, mint sauce or redcurrant jelly for lamb, apple sauce for pork and cranberry sauce for turkey.

Catherine of Braganza, Portuguese wife of Charles II, took the Portuguese habit of tea to Great Britain around 1660, subsequent to the introduction of coffee. Initially, its expense restricted it to wealthy consumers, but the price gradually dropped, until the 19th century, when tea became as widely consumed as it is today.
Strong tea served with lots of milk and sometimes two teaspoons of sugar, usually in a mug.
Earl Grey tea is a distinctive variation flavoured with Bergamot. In recent years, tisanes and speciality teas have also become popular.
