Sausage Rolls
 

My girlfriend wants to have a few people over for some nibbles, which I did suggest was an absolutely rubbish idea, but she insists, so trying to be helpful, I suggested sausage rolls, anyway a rather fractious discussion ensued over whether mini sausage rolls should be served hot or cold. I favour them being cold, she said I was wrong. Thank naff we're not serving mince pies to honest. :o

So, what do you think? Should they be hot or cold?

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

Hot, then they go cold. Everyone happy.

Are you serving them to Canadians? If so who cares because they won't know the difference and will be compelled by their self preservation skills which they think is politeness to smile sweetly anyway.

If they're not it could go either way: in Greggs in Scotland you can get them hot or cold. I personally prefer them to be cold but I will eat hot too. But then again my taste buds are not exactly fully Scottish, definitely not Canadian so who knows.

A mixture of yanks, cradles and some other places. And they're the little ones, actually I think they're very good. The thing of it is, I'm not going to be baking minutes before they turn up, so I'd have to put them in the microwave and that might make them soggy.

In that case you must video it and post their reactions. There are tons of awesome clips like "Americans tasting Irish snacks". Facial expressions are priceless. I couldn't find one for Scottish snacks though.

A moment of self doubt: I've been away so long I can't tell if Sausage Rolls are Scottish or a UK wide thing. They have them in England right?

Duh?

:rofl:

Am I not permitted any humility? Must I be right *all* the time?

;->

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

I voted hot but not if you are going to put them in the microwave. They will go all chewy.

Have you got one of those metal dish things that posh people have, with the
little burners that keep things hot?

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

Yes.



If the sausage rolls are served hot then Oink will have lots of fun watching people burn themselves on them.

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

I suppose this dilemma would be the same for other snack type foods, like mini quiches and pigs-in-blanket.


No, that'd just encourage HID to invite more people round.

Perhaps that is his secret evil plan hmmm?

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

I put a cheese board out once. B###ards ate the naffing lot:(
Just left me a few little stilton crumbs and an empty port bottle.

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

Sausage rolls should *not* be microwaved. If they're not going in the oven, then it has to be cold

Re: Sausage Rolls
 

Board and all?

That must of cost you a fortune over here. I find not having a shower and speaking loudly in a Jamie Oliver accent and sayings tends to keep the social gatherings at ours reasonably short. I did have one woman who said the sponge cake was lovely and would be good at her house. I thought she wanted the recipe but she wanted take the actual cake with her. :frown:
