British dishes as English places

The great variety of Bristish regional cookery is reflected in the names of its dishes. Many regions have their own particular speciality in savory and sweet dishes, or they are famous for their regional agricultural products.
For example, cheeses are produced in many parts of England. In fact, Cheddar cheese, of strong taste and very salty, is the most popular variety. It comes from a town of Somerset, in the west of England. Among other types of cheeses are the Cheshire, Lancashire, Stilton and Wenskeydale.


Cornwall, located at the southwest of England, is famous for its `Cornish Pasties´, which are small pies filled with meat, potatoes and vegetables. It is the traditional lunch of the workers of the region.




As I have said before, there are many other dishes named according to English places. Some of them are:


-Lancashire Hotpot, which consists in a saucepan filled with meat and vegetables covered with sliced potatoes.











-Welsh `Rarebit´, molten cheese on a slice of toast.











-Bath Buns, sweet bread rolls that contain spices and dried fruit.
