    Like if you tried to recreate A1 sauce from memory and your memory was really poor and you also had a lot of vinegar that needed used. That's basically it. I found it in the imported foods aisle, tried it with every intention of using it, and ended up throwing away the bottle. Not my cup of tea.

    Brown Sauce is amazing. No fucking idea what's in it, mind.

    And it certainly doesn't go with whatever the hell that is. Probably best on a fry up.

    the first recipe i looked at is mostly tomato, onion, and vinegar. but then there’s exciting shit like apples and apricots and juniper berries in there. reckon i’ll try making some!

    As a British person, I found out that the rest of the world doesn't know what "brown sauce" is when I sat down for breakfast in America and asked the black lady server if I could get some brown sauce.

    I was jet lagged. I kept asking in different ways. She got gradually more freaked out by the weird British guy. Neither of us had a clue what was going on.
