Pizza frita Escocesa (página 2 de 2)Home >> Experiencias Gastronómicas
Página: 1 2 Página precedente
La mayor parte de las pizzas frita escocesas se hace con pizzas congeladas pero Selim casa la tradición con la calidad y hace su propia masa de pizza. Claro, podría seguirse de corrido y preparar pizza fritta pizza fritta pero él no es de Nápoles y los escoceses no comerían eso ni aunque fuese frita.
Pero ¿Qué lleva? Parece carne - en efecto; carne de kebab. Señores, hemos llegado a los confines del mundo conocido, donde la fusión en la comida se convierte en confusión. Pizza de kebab frita al estilo escocés. Esta es la nueva Europa. ¿Me pasan la salsa de ostión por favor?
Este es uno de los finos agasajos servidos en el Café Piccante, en Edimburgo, Escocia, donde el Oriente se encuentra con el Occidente y el Sur y de regreso. Uno de los mejores lugares en Escocia en especialidades fritas. O lo puedes comer en Nueva York New York. Café Piccante 598122 visitas Márcarlo con:¿Te gusta este artículo?

Travel advisory: Indian nationals, who are built with thinner arteries and a higher propensity for cardiac illness, are advised to avoid Selim's deep fried Kabab pizza at Cafe Picante, Edinburgh and stick to f & c. In fact all nationalities except blubber-tolerant Innuits are also advised the same. :-)- #5

What is the age expectancy for Scotts again? I would think that most people wouldn't make it past 50 on that diet.- #6

To tell you the truth, I got sick myself after that one. Not cardiac arrest but that's definitely where such food is leading to. This being said Scottish life expectancy is not due to this specific deep-fried specialty which I had some trouble locating. They eat & drink all sorts of rather unhealthy things. It's really a pity with such lovely people and with the great products they grow up there - salmon, venison, grouse, etc...- #7

If my cardiologist knew I was reading this he would be sooooo pissed!- #8

Tony, you might be surprised. Our local cardiologist preaches like yours but we caught him eating at Mc Donalds!- #9

You know what? Shut it. All of you, with your "heart attack" crap. Seriously, people have been living for years and years with long lives before we "knew the dangers of high fat" and such. Besides, do you really wanna live forever and see what the next generation is gonna do to completely screw up this society? I sure as hell don't. Therefore, I will eat all the delicious looking fried pizza I want, and not have any reservations about it. Get a life. That is all.Thanks for playing.- #10

Jet I could not agree more. It is very conforting to be able to choose your own poison - death from Deep Fried Pizza is my choice too!- #11

This wouldn't be that unhealthy as long as you also order the deep fried salad.- #12

I live just outside Edinburgh & eat deep-fried pizza many times, but only ever after a few beers.... believe it or not it actually tastes ok... its normally followed by deep fried ice-cream.. but I really don't think you could eat it sober....- #15

David you are right, your panchreas will be hurting seriously as will your liver if you indulge in deep-fried pizzas too often. Actually I was sick for 2 hours solid after my session at Café Piccante, just because of the quantity of fat I had absorbed. Ah, the things I do for the readers of FXcuisine!- #16

Pete you are right, lots of beer is the way to wash down deep-fried pizzas!- #17
- Comment by lorien
Some of these comments annoy me...!This isnt the typical Scots diet and most Scot's cringe at the thought of our deep-fried-cuisine image!I have actually tasted a deep fried mars bar.... the tiniest wee bit, and all beacuse my American friend begged me to!!By all means if you want to, give it a try... but dont tar us all with the same brush :P- #18

Lorien, you are right that deep-fried fare such as the one seen on FXcuisine is not ubiquitous at all in Scotland and it certainly does not justice either to the fine foodstuff produced in Scotland nor to the fine people who live there.- #19

I can't say I eat it all the time (maybe once or twice a year) but I quite like a deep fried pizza. Every culture has their horrible fast food option that can be eaten on the odd occasion, but so long as it isn't a staple it's fine in my opinion. Let's face it, if you ate McDonald's food as a staple you'd be in just as bad shape as you would with a deep fried pizza.- #20

Sure, Scottish deep-fried pizza is great fun on a night out with the mates. I don't think anybody eats that many of them anyway and I had to hunt down that chippie to get some. Not really common in Scotland.- #21

Dear heaven,I thought this type of insanity was confined to the midway at the State Fair of Texas - where the deep-fryer food vendors each try to outdo each other. Deep-fried Coke was offered for the first time this year! (Don't ask me how, I didn't even go to see it) It follows its fore bearers like deep-fried oreos, candy bars, batter-fried corn on the cob, fried cheesecake on a stick, and the granddaddy of them all - the famous Tx State Fair Corndog.
Some delicious, some revolting, all crazy.
What's next? Battered, deep-fried butter?

Maven, do you know the dates of the State Fair of Texas you mention - sounds like a place I ought to visit!- #23

A frozen pizza should be lethal.A fresh pizza a little less.

Great articles - I grew up in Scotland and now feel I had a deprived childhood as our local chippies did not produce such excellent fare.Jane w

I work almost opposite that particular chippie, and have only ever tried their boring old baked pizza. Thanks for the tip!- #30

Here's an idea ... take a Chicago-style Deep Dish Pizza. Yes, a casserole/pie dish stuffed with cheese, toppings, and sauce.Then, batter and deep fry, a Chicago deep dish pizza? That's the worst combination of a Yankee and Scottish monstrosity.
