Drink

Craft beer

A craft brewery or microbrewery is a brewery that produces small amounts of beer, typically less than large breweries, and is often independently owned. such breweries are generally perceived and marketed as having an emphasis on enthusiasm, new flavours, and varied brewing techniques.the microbrewing movement began in both the united states and united kingdom in the 1970s, although traditional artisanal brewing existed in europe for centuries and subsequently spread to other countries. as the movement grew, and some breweries expanded their production and distribution, the more encompassing concept of craft brewing emerged. a brewpub is a pub that brews its own beer for sale on the premises.

Fiddlehead

Fiddleheads or fiddlehead greens are the furled fronds of a young fern, harvested for use as a vegetable. left on the plant, each fiddlehead would unroll into a new frond (circinate vernation). as fiddleheads are harvested early in the season before the frond has opened and reached its full height, they are cut fairly close to the ground.fiddleheads contain a compound associated with bracken toxicity. the fiddlehead resembles the curled ornamentation (called a scroll) on the end of a stringed instrument, such as a fiddle. it is also called a crozier, after the curved staff used by bishops, which has its origins in the shepherd's crook.

Fish and chips

Fish and chips is a popular hot dish consisting of fried fish in crispy batter, served with chips. the dish originated in england, where these two components had been introduced from separate immigrant cultures; it is not known who created the culinary fusion that became the emblematic british meal. often considered britain's national dish, fish and chips is a common take-away food in the united kingdom and numerous other countries, particularly in english-speaking and commonwealth nations.fish and chip shops first appeared in the uk in the 1860s, and by 1910, there were over 25,000 fish and chip shops across the uk. by the 1930s there were over 35,000 shops, but the trend reversed, and by 2009 there were only approximately 10,000. the british government safeguarded the supply of fish and chips during the first world war, and again in the second world war; it was one of the few foods in the uk not subject to rationing during the wars.

Fried clams

Fried clams are clams dipped in milk, floured, and deep-fried. fried clams are an iconic food, "to new england, what barbecue is to the south". they tend to be served at seaside clam shacks (roadside restaurants). clam rolls are fried clams served in a hot dog bun. they are usually served with tartar sauce.

Drink

Gin

Gin is a distilled alcoholic drink that derives its predominant flavour from juniper berries (juniperus communis).gin originated as a medicinal liquor made by monks and alchemists across europe, particularly in southern italy (salerno), flanders and the netherlands, to provide aqua vita from distillates of grapes and grains. it then became an object of commerce in the spirits industry. gin became popular in england after the introduction of jenever, a dutch and belgian liquor that was originally a medicine. although this development had been taking place since the early 17th century, gin became widespread after the 1688 glorious revolution led by william of orange and subsequent import restrictions on french brandy. gin subsequently emerged as the national alcoholic drink of england. gin today is produced in different ways from a wide range of herbal ingredients, giving rise to a number of distinct styles and brands. after juniper, gin tends to be flavoured with botanical/herbal, spice, floral or fruit flavours or often a combination. it is commonly consumed mixed with tonic water in a gin and tonic. gin is also often used as a base spirit to produce flavoured, gin-based liqueurs, for example sloe gin, traditionally produced by the addition of fruit, flavourings and sugar.

Lobster

Lobsters are a family (nephropidae, synonym homaridae) of large marine crustaceans. lobsters have long bodies with muscular tails, and live in crevices or burrows on the sea floor. three of their five pairs of legs have claws, including the first pair, which are usually much larger than the others. highly prized as seafood, lobsters are economically important, and are often one of the most profitable commodities in coastal areas they populate.commercially important species include two species of homarus (which look more like the stereotypical lobster) from the northern atlantic ocean, and scampi (which look more like a shrimp, or a "mini lobster") — the northern hemisphere genus nephrops and the southern hemisphere genus metanephrops.

Maple syrup

Maple syrup is a syrup usually made from the xylem sap of sugar maple, red maple, or black maple trees, although it can also be made from other maple species. in cold climates, these trees store starch in their trunks and roots before winter; the starch is then converted to sugar that rises in the sap in late winter and early spring. maple trees are tapped by drilling holes into their trunks and collecting the sap, which is processed by heating to evaporate much of the water, leaving the concentrated syrup. maple syrup was first made and used by the indigenous peoples of north america. the practice was adopted by european settlers, who gradually changed production methods. technological improvements in the 1970s further refined syrup processing. virtually all of the world's maple syrup is produced in canada and the united states. the canadian province of quebec is the largest producer, responsible for 70 percent of the world's output; canadian exports of maple syrup in 2016 were c$487 million (about us$360 million), with quebec accounting for some 90 percent of this total.maple syrup is graded according to the canada, united states, or vermont scales based on its density and translucency. sucrose is the most prevalent sugar in maple syrup. in canada, syrups must be made exclusively from maple sap to qualify as maple syrup and must also be at least 66 percent sugar. in the united states, a syrup must be made almost entirely from maple sap to be labelled as "maple", though states such as vermont and new york have more restrictive definitions. maple syrup is often used as a condiment for pancakes, waffles, french toast, oatmeal, or porridge. it is also used as an ingredient in baking and as a sweetener or flavouring agent. culinary experts have praised its unique flavour, although the chemistry responsible is not fully understood.

Mushroom ketchup

Mushroom ketchup is a style of ketchup that is prepared with mushrooms as its primary ingredient. originally, ketchup in the united kingdom was prepared with mushrooms as a primary ingredient, instead of tomato, the main ingredient in contemporary preparations of ketchup. historical preparations involved packing whole mushrooms into containers with salt. it is used as a condiment and may be used as an ingredient in the preparation of other sauces and other condiments. several brands of mushroom ketchup were produced and marketed in the united kingdom, some of which were exported to the united states, and some are still manufactured as a commercial product.

Mussel

Mussel () is the common name used for members of several families of bivalve molluscs, from saltwater and freshwater habitats. these groups have in common a shell whose outline is elongated and asymmetrical compared with other edible clams, which are often more or less rounded or oval. the word "mussel" is frequently used to mean the bivalves of the marine family mytilidae, most of which live on exposed shores in the intertidal zone, attached by means of their strong byssal threads ("beard") to a firm substrate. a few species (in the genus bathymodiolus) have colonised hydrothermal vents associated with deep ocean ridges. in most marine mussels the shell is longer than it is wide, being wedge-shaped or asymmetrical. the external colour of the shell is often dark blue, blackish, or brown, while the interior is silvery and somewhat nacreous. the common name "mussel" is also used for many freshwater bivalves, including the freshwater pearl mussels. freshwater mussel species inhabit lakes, ponds, rivers, creeks, canals, and they are classified in a different subclass of bivalves, despite some very superficial similarities in appearance. freshwater zebra mussels and their relatives in the family dreissenidae are not related to previously mentioned groups, even though they resemble many mytilus species in shape, and live attached to rocks and other hard surfaces in a similar manner, using a byssus. they are classified with the heterodonta, the taxonomic group which includes most of the bivalves commonly referred to as "clams".

New potatoes

The potato is a starchy tuber of the plant solanum tuberosum and is a root vegetable native to the americas. the plant is a perennial in the nightshade family solanaceae.wild potato species can be found from the southern united states to southern chile. the potato was originally believed to have been domesticated by native americans independently in multiple locations, but later genetic studies traced a single origin, in the area of present-day southern peru and extreme northwestern bolivia. potatoes were domesticated there approximately 7,000–10,000 years ago, from a species in the solanum brevicaule complex. in the andes region of south america, where the species is indigenous, some close relatives of the potato are cultivated. potatoes were introduced to europe from the americas in the second half of the 16th century by the spanish. today they are a staple food in many parts of the world and an integral part of much of the world's food supply. as of 2014, potatoes were the world's fourth-largest food crop after maize (corn), wheat, and rice. following millennia of selective breeding, there are now over 5,000 different types of potatoes. over 99% of potatoes presently cultivated worldwide descended from varieties that originated in the lowlands of south-central chile. the importance of the potato as a food source and culinary ingredient varies by region and is still changing. it remains an essential crop in europe, especially northern and eastern europe, where per capita production is still the highest in the world, while the most rapid expansion in production over the past few decades has occurred in southern and eastern asia, with china and india leading the world in overall production as of 2018. like the tomato, the potato is a nightshade in the genus solanum, and the vegetative and fruiting parts of the potato contain the toxin solanine which is dangerous for human consumption. normal potato tubers that have been grown and stored properly produce glycoalkaloids in amounts small enough to be negligible to human health, but, if green sections of the plant (namely sprouts and skins) are exposed to light, the tuber can accumulate a high enough concentration of glycoalkaloids to affect human health.

Oyster

Oyster is the common name for a number of different families of salt-water bivalve molluscs that live in marine or brackish habitats. in some species, the valves are highly calcified, and many are somewhat irregular in shape. many, but not all oysters are in the superfamily ostreoidea. some types of oysters are commonly consumed (cooked or raw), and in some locales are regarded as a delicacy. some types of pearl oysters are harvested for the pearl produced within the mantle. windowpane oysters are harvested for their translucent shells, which are used to make various kinds of decorative objects.

Scallop

Scallop () is a common name that encompasses various species of marine bivalve mollusks (saltwater clams) in the taxonomic family pectinidae, the scallops. however, the common name "scallop" is also sometimes applied to species in other closely related families within the superfamily pectinoidea, which also includes the thorny oysters. scallops are a cosmopolitan family of bivalves which are found in all of the world's oceans, although never in fresh water. they are one of very few groups of bivalves to be primarily "free-living", with many species capable of rapidly swimming short distances and even of migrating some distance across the ocean floor. a small minority of scallop species live cemented to rocky substrates as adults, while others attach themselves to stationary or rooted objects such as sea grass at some point in their lives by means of a filament they secrete called a byssal thread. the majority of species, however, live recumbent on sandy substrates, and when they sense the presence of a predator such as a starfish, they may attempt to escape by swimming swiftly but erratically through the water using jet propulsion created by repeatedly clapping their shells together. scallops have a well-developed nervous system, and unlike most other bivalves all scallops have a ring of numerous simple eyes situated around the edge of their mantles. many species of scallops are highly prized as a food source, and some are farmed as aquaculture. the word "scallop" is also applied to the meat of these bivalves, the adductor muscle, that is sold as seafood. the brightly coloured, symmetric, fan-shaped shells of scallops with their radiating and often fluted ornamentation are valued by shell collectors, and have been used since ancient times as motifs in art, architecture, and design. owing to their widespread distribution, scallop shells are a common sight on beaches and are often brightly coloured, making them a popular object to collect among beachcombers and vacationers. the shells also have a significant place in popular culture, including symbolism.

Toffee

Toffee is a confection made by caramelizing sugar or molasses (creating inverted sugar) along with butter, and occasionally flour. the mixture is heated until its temperature reaches the hard crack stage of 149 to 154 °c (300 to 310 °f). while being prepared, toffee is sometimes mixed with nuts or raisins.

Drink

Wine

Wine is an alcoholic drink typically made from fermented grapes. yeast consumes the sugar in the grapes and converts it to ethanol and carbon dioxide, releasing heat in the process. different varieties of grapes and strains of yeasts are major factors in different styles of wine. these differences result from the complex interactions between the biochemical development of the grape, the reactions involved in fermentation, the grape's growing environment (terroir), and the wine production process. many countries enact legal appellations intended to define styles and qualities of wine. these typically restrict the geographical origin and permitted varieties of grapes, as well as other aspects of wine production. wines not made from grapes involve fermentation of other crops including rice wine and other fruit wines such as plum, cherry, pomegranate, currant and elderberry. wine has been produced for thousands of years. the earliest evidence of wine is from the caucasus region in today's georgia (6000 bce), persia (5000 bce), and italy (4000 bce). new world wine has some connection to alcoholic beverages made by the indigenous peoples of the americas, but is mainly connected to later spanish traditions in new spain. later, as old world wine further developed viticulture techniques, europe would encompass three of the largest wine-producing regions. today, the five countries with the largest wine-producing regions are in italy, spain, france, the united states, and china.wine has long played an important role in religion. red wine was associated with blood by the ancient egyptians and was used by both the greek cult of dionysus and the romans in their bacchanalia; judaism also incorporates it in the kiddush, and christianity in the eucharist. egyptian, greek, roman, and israeli wine cultures are still connected to these ancient roots. similarly the largest wine regions in italy, spain, and france have heritages in connection to sacramental wine, likewise, viticulture traditions in the southwestern united states started within new spain as catholic friars and monks first produced wines in new mexico and california.
