FabSwingers.com forum: Oatcakes...

Oatcakes here for tea with some nice thick sausages, eggs and brown sauce.

Although I've realised oatcakes are different depending on where you are from?

Of course I'm talking Staffordshire Oatcakes?

Who likes them? What are oatcakes like where you're from?

I don’t like oatcakes at all

But I’ll politely eat them if I’m at someone’s house and I’m offered them with cheese

Ahhh see. I see the Scottish contingent are talking about cardboard.

Staffordhire oatcakes are more like a savoury pancake / very flat crumpets...

Stovies are just some boiled potatoes with some corned beef

It’s one of the only things Mr Sofa trusts me to cook

There are a few small places in stoke that still do from fresh, bucknalls famous hole in the wall was demolished but the door is in Hanley museum duck, and you can mail order in next day oatcakes made to their recipe from a place in leek. But high lane oatcakes are the best in my humble opinion
