Have you spotted dick in a can?

[+ glennnn]

In 1972, I was in a restaurant in London with a high school tour group at the end of an exhausting day. For dessert, we were all offered spotted dick with cream sauce by the server who was holding a sample covered in what they thought looked like cum. Pandemonium and hilarity ensued. Eventually, .........we all eschewed the sweet. Travel IS broadening!

I recently opened my can of Spotted Dick and it was delicious. I was wearing a gooey smile of sweet satisfaction at the end.

Well the original post was 3.5 years ago. Some things get better with age.

Ha, saw this all the time in England when I worked there. Tried it once - like most English food, no thank you.

Now guys, lets not knock British cuisine -at least the iconic names! Spotted dick is a British traditional desert usually served with custard ( the sauce that someone thinks looks like cum but tastes very different!). A fag is a cigarette as well as a crude name for gay so having a fag has all sorts of meanings! Incidentally my favourite escort is a freckled hottie who even has a few freckles on his dick so I've swallowed spotted dick in more ways than one!!

And that's not even to consider cockie leekie.

This is equally as tasty as Spotted Dick. Now I think I'll go spend a penny you cheeky guys.

Wow - you just never know what's going to come back to haunt you - thread wise that is. Since my last posting in this thread back in 2013, I actually opened up my can of Spotted Dick and ate it. Say what you will (and I know some of you will), it was quite good. So, gp0560, I took one for the team and I have to say I liked it. I would do it again. (Sadly, however, my local supermarket didn't sell spotted dick this past holiday season. I felt deprived - maybe even depraved on account of being deprived)

I have a packet of this I found in a Latino market, but it's simply labeled "Cock Soup."

Once, when I was grieving the loss of a family member, a British woman neighbor telephoned a condolence in which she told me to "keep your pecker up." I knew immediately she meant "chin," but I almost whooped anyway. It lightened my mood.

And, you know, it's microwaveable!

A notorious English "pudding." I found it in the supermarket in the import section and tried it. Not bad--not great either. I think you are supposed to heat it up, then drown it in cream. One of England's great contributions to world cuisine, along with blancmange (pronounced blahmange.)

What a difference a couple of letters makes! The above article references panna cotta or Italian cooked cream dessert. Not having a sweet tooth I personally prefer pane cotta which references a cooked bread recipe with escarole and beans and is often served as an appetizer. Therefore on can have both in the same big Italian meal going from antipasto, primo piatto, secondo piatto, to dolce! You can begin the meal in rustic style like a peasant and end it as if you were a king!

Here are a couple of variations on the recipe:
