Chips: Salt or Vinegar first

[danny la rouge]

this is the most fucked up fucked uppedness i have ever seen. salt first is ahead in the poll. my head is literally exploding. i need to leave this thread.

I saw a programme last night (I didn’t stay the course: it was shite) where the evil private school teacher guy out of Nativity put butter on his chips. Not on a roll or something, just onto his chips! It was a bit of a weird programme altogether.

in my first job as a labourer in the warehouse at allied carpets, my mate and fellow porter, charlie, told me he did this. i called him a dirty bastard. he said you do the same with the amount of butter you have on your bread what drips all over your chips. i was stumped, he was correct. i just called him a dirty bastard again but it worries me to this day.

Salt first, then vinegar, then ketchup.

I worked in a chippy age 15-16
Vinegar then salt and if they want loads repeat vinegar and salt

Second dose of vinegar washes the salt into the underneath chips, second salt dose replaces the washed away top layer salt

I also made saveloys sing for the customers when they were waiting for the chips to cook

Pervert

 

[sojourner]

You want the vinegar afterwards to dissolve and distribute some of the salt - I thought every sensible person knew that? Evidently moose and sojourner don't - I thought you were northerners?

How very fucking dare you

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Salt first, then the gravy.

I watched that because I love Jason Watkins.
But that butter on his chips business was highly weird. Is that a real thing in Bath? Any Bathers on here?

This is chips.

I know, it’s autocorrect. You did type HP.

Mayonnaise is vile barely tasting white fat, and I have no idea why anyone likes it. Salad cream on salad is good, but has nowt to do with chips.

I like the chip spice and vinegar on mine. Vinegar first.

Right on the first past, but very wrong indeed on the second.

You've not had my mayonnaise. It isn't like that awful stuff in jars. You both need to try it.

 

[sojourner]

Why do you want to dissolve the salt?! You need a good crunch of salt on hot chips.

What the fuck was that programme like though? We laughed belly laughs every time the green screen “we’re high up in the air!” balloon basket shots were shown.

I didn’t know how to process it.

 

[discokermit]

brown is the only sauce for chips. and then only to disguise bad chips. like if you go to london or summat and am desperate for a chip.

 

[danny la rouge]

brown is the only sauce for chips.

Correct.

 

[Johnny Doe]

brown is the only sauce for chips.

Wtf?

 

[farmerbarleymow]

You've not had my mayonnaise.

I really don't want to.

 

[sojourner]

brown is the only sauce for chips.

My fella puts brown sauce on everything. Dirty!

 

[danny la rouge]

Wtf?

Wtf?

 

[farmerbarleymow]

brown is the only sauce for chips.

Correct - ketchup is shit.

 

[Johnny Doe]

Correct.

You may well be able to hypnotise a dog to believe such lunacy, but we do things differently here

 

[High Voltage]

I believe the stuff we have in the UK should really be referred to as a non brewed condiment - - - it's certainly not vinegar by any usual stretch of the imagination

Good man.

I'm a chip polytheist - ketchup is a good choice, mayo is sound, brown sauce is sound, I can't remember trying sweet chilli sauce but I bet that'd be mint as well. I can't remember having that salt'n'soss I hear they do in Scottish chippies, but I bet I'd probably like that as well.

 

[izz]

Yes, it's considered high treason to even think of adding that muck to chips izz

oh well. #gallicshrug.

I think you’ve misread the OP. We’re talking about chips. Chip shop chips.

I use Sarson's malt vinegar.

Chips do not need sauce

Saucing chips is a five year olds behaviour

This is not the place for rational affability.
