Note for Lookyloos: While I hoped for Scottish Independence, in recognition of the result, I'm working on sorting out the various partial lists (some solo articles, some not) of regional food in the British Isles. Aiming for a food history list of UK dishes, that have their own articles, that have a sourced place (and hopefully date) or origin eg. Town/City/County. NOT a list of food that is typically eaten in a given area (those lists, in various forms, seem to exist). I'll probably start on England first as it has a general food list and it will let me see if this kind of list is worth bothering with (its also likely to be a more topical private list to do general gnoming/source adding in articles and creating new ones in Food Sandbox.
- Partial list at English cuisine.
- Sep article: List of English dishes
- No Welsh list but partial in Welsh cuisine.
- No Scots list but partial in Scottish cuisine.
- Cornish cuisine has own article.
- Irish cuisine and List of Irish dishes but no Northern Island. (Also Irish is in British Cuisine template).
- Partial list within article British cuisine.
- List of pies, tarts and flans
- List of breads
- Category (& template) British breads
- Checked all but Stottie cake
- Category (& template) British breads
- This may be worth working on/expanding - Geographically indicated foods of the United Kingdom.
