Why Fish and Chips deserves more attention

Fish and Chips rarely gets the international recognition it deserves. The deeply satisfying complexity is genuine, not simple, and the technique involved in using Worcestershire sauce correctly takes real skill.

British cuisine was shaped by the Empire, introducing curries and international ingredients into the national diet. I encountered it first in a country house hotel and that context helped me understand it properly. English Breakfast tea is the natural accompaniment and the combination makes the case for the dish. If you haven't explored this cuisine seriously, Fish and Chips is the dish to start with.
