Brown Windsor Soup
In Victorian England, this soup was the standard. No matter what class of society you were a member of, you consumed this soup voraciously.
Naturally, you might assume that meant it was made with premium ingredients, but you would be mistaken. Dried fruits, malt vinegar, pepper, and beef gravy were used to make the soup. Do you like the way that sounds?
Pickled Oysters
Even though oysters are already a specialized food, many people could find the tangy vinegar flavor to be a turn off. but not during this time. In actuality, pickling is an excellent method for preserving food, including seafood.
At that time, oysters could be purchased fresh and eaten right away for a very low price. Pickling them was the only option for those who wanted to purchase more.
