Nice to see the culinary scene has improved since I left Felixstowe Suffolk 30 odd years ago. However most Americans are not going to know what a "rasher" of bacon or (streaky bacon)is; castor sugar or your metric measurements or oven temps. Rasher=slice. Streaky= regular american bacon, Castor sugar=superfine.Single cream=light cream, Double cream=Heavy cream, Tinned=canned. Custard powder is probably know only to Ex-Brits (Birds) Red Mullet and Little Gem lettuce are unknown here. Nice recipes, not exotic by USA standards but at least Brits are no longer living on "Pie and Chips!
