whoa, we need a UK/American translation/slang thread :)

[RubyDuby]

your grandmother makes vegan food?!?! lucky you!

[bryzee86]

whoa, we need a UK/American translation/slang thread :)

why what don't you understand? I'm more than happy to try and translate!

[emmapresley]

nothing much - just 1 1/2 cups wholewheat flour, 1/4 cup white fat (I used trex). bung it in a food processor til it's breadcrumbs. then add cold water whilst pulsing the processor until it binds into one big ball. then shove it in cling film or a bag, and chill it for a while.

then use.

oh and don't roll it out too thick.

oh and use flour on your hands, rolling pin and board. plenty of it.

cheers..sounds easy..i'll try that..my pastry tends to turn out crap, i don't make it enough to have perfected it

[Marrers]

Wow those look reet tasty bryzee!

[bryzee86]

aw wow this praise is good

[RubyDuby]

white fat??? (is that like crisco?), trex???, and I figured out bung it. made me laugh actually.

[emmapresley]

^ that's amusing cos i was scrutinising the post trying to work out which bit needed translating from over here to over there language!!?

[bryzee86]

hahaha sorry rubyduby. yeah "bung" is an awfully british word. sorry. Should have said place or something. white fat can be any solid refrigerated fat like trex, flora white, supermarket's own brand. I don't know what brands you get there, but yeah it's white...erm....fat.

[bryzee86]

ooh shortening's the word! sorry!

Lol, so was I and I couldn't see anything!

[BlackCats]

Yum!:)

[emmapresley]

i possibly would've used the words 'twaz it in...'..buuuut, i am common and northern, sooo...

[Marrers]

ah but isn't 'twaz describing the whizzing of it rather than the placing of it?! Or do I need translations? :eek:

[emmapresley]

..bung, twaz, lob..(in) - it's all the same thing. ;)
twaz possibly implies a more careless action??

[bryzee86]

i possibly would've used the words 'twaz it in...'..buuuut, i am common and northern, sooo...

i'm northern and i've never heard twaz....but i'm from t'other side o' t'pennines.

i'd say bung or whack or stick or shove it in.

[Marrers]

(She makes words up you know bryzee.) ;)

I'd probably have lobbed it in!

[RubyDuby]

I would be screwed over there! you ppl are making me cry! :) Twas??? (the night before christmas maybe!)

[PaintedXSkyline]

woww. this thread is making me really really really hungry.

next time i make something, i'll try to remember to take some pictures.

[RubyDuby]

I know! I wish I had a camera. Might inspire me to cook more often.

[Cup'O'Tea]

Happy Birthday Miss Tea! That cheesecake looks awesome! I hope it tasted as good as it looks :)
Thank you! Oh, it was wonderful! Lots of leftovers too, as we had all gone out for japanese and ate a ton of food there, so not many people were hungry for cake. I have 1/3 of it in my freezer for cravings, haha.
