RODDAS CLOTTED CREAM - Taste Test in Bourton-on-the-Water
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 гру 2024
- Clotted Cream in Britain is delicious… but how does the stuff Americans can buy in the states compare? I just had to find out! So I visited Bourton-on-the-Water in the Cotswolds, hit up the Cornish Bakery for fresh scones, and did a head to head comparison of refrigerated Roddas Clotted Cream in a tub vs. the long life Clotted Cream in a jar. Be sure to let me know your thoughts on clotted cream, cream tea, afternoon tea, and our taste test!

DON’T MISS our livestream Q&A this Saturday…3pm UK / 9am Central US. See you then! 😘
I pulled up behind a Roddas delivery lorry yesterday in North Devon. The registration number was CL07TED.🙂
Brilliant!
Rodda's are just down the road from me, here in Cornwall. A dollop of clotted cream on porridge is heavenly.
Ooooh that does sound good! With some fresh berries as well 😋
I put a dollop in my french roast coffee the other morning. Delightful.
@@gregdubya1993 ooooh yes that would be good 😊
i hope i get to go there one day! my ancestors invented Rodda’s (hence my name) and i am so excited to try it one day!
Lovely video. I am so pleased that you love our country and find places that even I have not been to. Always a very professional show.
Thanks so much! In which area of Britain do you live?
@@MagentaOtterTravels Solihull in the middle of England. And sent you for replying to me that is the first time anybody ever has on the internet. Hope you're having a lovely day.
Thank you not sent you
Ooo fun! this was great to watch Dara! Mmmhm, Roddas Cream is glorious! Great choice. Those scones looked beautiful. This was wonderful to watch although it made me hungry hehe!
Makes me hungry to watch again too! LOL
Thanks for watching!! I've been out running around all day long... hope to catch your vid this weekend!
Loved this, brightened up my evening, and set me ready for the weekend. Have a good one both.
Thanks so much!💕
Devon Cream Company is sold in Wholefoods Market and Publix now
It's better than having no clotted cream at all, but homemade is pretty much the best way to go in the US. I'm going to have another try at making it myself in March. I have to wait until Ian's gone, because he'll have a fit if I make clotted cream again 🤣🤣
I live in the US. I make my own clotted cream.
I would love to know how you make yours. I have made it in the instant pot. Didn't love the texture... too lumpy.
I tried the stovetop method. Ended up too runny. I then tried the microwave method and it was hard as a rock! Only thing I haven't tried yet is the oven method...
Also, please tell me exactly what type of cream you use. Thanks! Dara
I love your videos. No idea why you don't have many more subscribers but I appreciate what you do. Enjoy the rest of your summer and keep cool this weekend 😘
Thanks so much! We are hoping to survive the two day heat wave!🔥 🥵
What a nice location for a test taste! Thanks for pointing out the bridge. There was a gull side-eying you though! They can be really mean!
NEVER trust a gull! Or a rooster! haha
We have just got North Devon for a week's holiday .will definitely be having some cream and pasty s
Yum!
Hi Dara and Ian, me and my husband are very big England fans too. We have been going by car to Cornwall twice a year, in May and September since 2006, and its absolutely worth the 17 hour drive. That's where my heart is. It's funny that I discoverd you, through Kirsten und Jörg's channel. I love their videos. A nice holiday includes a few cream teas. Very tasty:)). I love scones and bake them often, but the clotted cream is missing. This week I ordered the excat same one you tested from a British shop. I have to say it's no match for Rodda's clotted cream! We are going back to Cornwall at the end of September and are looking forward to it. The people are so friendly and the walks along the coast path are unique. Great to have discoverd your channel and watch you have a good time. Take care. Have a good time, Gabi from Germany
Hello from Austria! So nice to meet you! I love Kirsten, she is such a sweetheart. 💕
I’m so impressed that you make that big drive to Cornwall so often. It is such a wonderful place though.
You should probably try making clotted cream in the oven… it would be the next best thing to Britain 😉.
We had an amazing summer in England again this year, and now we are on a tour for a few weeks through Austria, Italy, France and Luxembourg. Then back to Texas for several months before our next summer in England. Thanks for finding my channel and saying hello!
Vielen Dank! Cheers! Dara
@@MagentaOtterTravels Hello Dara, I will make the clotted cream in the oven in winter and test it😊. I was so sorry that you got on the wrong train and then the bad people who harassed you. Not a good memory. I hope you have some nice days on your round trip. Austria is beautiful. We often went there on holiday in the past. But then we discovered Cornwall🥰. If you're ever in Cornwall again, I can recommend the little sunset cafe in Gwithian, at Godrevy Lighthouse. We always have our delicious cream tea there. The homemade chips there are also unique. Unfortunately, this year in Boscastle, our beloved Haven cafe didn't have cream tea on the menu The owner had changed. We always looked forward to it after the long walk. The cream tea at the National Trust cafe was not so good. The clotted cream was so hard that you couldn't spread it. I wish you many more healthy, eventful days for your great journey. And a safe return to Texas. My sister-in-law is also from America😍. I will continue to follow your videos. Thank you for sharing, Cheers! Gabi😊
@@gabischmidt2753 thank you for the Cornwall recommendation. I know what you mean about the clotted cream! Sometimes it is so cold and hard you can’t spread it.👎
I wanted to tell you that last week we went to Mittenwald in Bavaria. Absolutely loved it! One of the prettiest towns I’ve ever visited! Have you been there?
Today we are going on an alpine coaster here in Austria. We are on top of the mountain now and I’m a little scared about going down that coaster! 😱 But it will make for an interesting video probably…😁
Talk to you later! Auf Wiedersehen! Dara
@@MagentaOtterTravels Oh yes, we were in Mittenwald many years ago. A beautiful town with the painted houses. That's what they call Lüftlmalerei in Bavaria. I hope you had a good descent of the alpine coaster🍀. It's difficult and slippery in places. You have to take carefully. But the view from the mountain is unique. In Austria they have delicious food. I love Germknödel and Kaiserschmarrn. Take care of yourselves. Auf Wiedersehen. Bis bald! Gabi
@@gabischmidt2753 yes I survived the toboggan 👍
And I agree… kaiserschmarrn is delicious! I need to learn what that other dish is 😉
I'm not surprised with your verdict but was interested that Ian advised to not even try the other one as there's no comparison. Thank you!
In Arizona, you best make your own!
I see a niche market that you could fill when you go back, use some of you food industry contact, and start marketing Magenta Otter Clotted Cream
Very clever idea! Unfortunately, I think there might be a few roadblocks…😬
Did you guys get to Wells
Next week!! Can’t wait!😻
What is it with Americans and raspberry jam? My other half loves raspberry jam, I think she has faulty taste buds because nothing beats blackcurrant jam.
I agree that blackcurrant is wonderful. But we don’t have blackcurrant jam in the US, so we don’t grow up eating that. I just think strawberry jam is a bit boring, and prefer something else!
@@MagentaOtterTravels just for interest when you say jam do you mean a conserve? More fruit in the conserve.
@@MagentaOtterTravels damn you, I'm now hungry for blackcurrant cheesecake brownies... Oh well I will have to suffer while eating them.
@@tonyhooper1468 we use different terms… of course! 🙄
But I do love conserve ❤️
@@MagentaOtterTravels I think jam, conserves, preserves have different meanings in the UK depending on the amount of fruit they contain
I LOVE clotted cream and jam on scones!! YUM!! Excited about this taste test! 🤗🤗
It was a fun one!
Use it for the filling in a Victoria sponge.
@@neilgayleard3842 great idea!
It's old school my grandmother's recipe. The trick is to keep the cake in the fridge. Take it out about 30 minutes before you eat it.
I use the same clotted cream love- its delish
Roddas? Yes, it's great stuff! What county do you live in?
Gods own Garden, Yorkshire, England (The Dales) love you videos
@@gmdhargreaves thanks mate! I love the Dales! Gorgeous area ❤️
What did you do with the couple??? Did you chase them or pay them to leave?
I think at some point they must’ve looked up and seen the camera pointed in their direction and they decided they didn’t want to be on film! 😂
I love Bourton-on-the-Water. We were there early on a Sunday morning, so it was not crowded. Sitting by that river under the willows is pure delight. A scone, cream, jam and a cuppa would have been the perfect accompaniment! ❤️
Yes, every time I see "your" tea shop across the street, I think of you!!
@@MagentaOtterTravels Aw!!! 😁
It’s 10 past 10 in the evening and after seeing this I fancy some clotted cream , scone and jam. I wonder If Tesco in Ammanford is still open. ? Lovely video by the way .
Lovely to hear you are a viewer from Wales! I hope you get that cream tea sometime this weekend if not tonight 😉
Moved here 6 months ago . I believe Ian’s ancestral home not to far away,
@@markjones9693 yes, the county names have changed over time, but his people were from the general Carmarthanshire and Cardiganshire area ❤️🏴
@@MagentaOtterTravels it’s going to be a beautiful day. We will go to a river in the Brecon Beacons near Trecastle for some wild swimming . Hope we can get a signal in the mountains for your live streaming. Have a great day .
@@markjones9693 That is a beautiful area! Enjoy!
Interesting to know you can get it at World Market. We have seen one of those stores. Don't remember where though...
Not sure if they are in Florida, but they are all over the states.
Long life, limited flavor?
Yes, and DRY!
I absolutely adore Rodda’s but as I live in the States, the only one we can get is the Devon Cream jar. I plan to make my own to see if I can get a closer taste and consistency to Rodda’s. Glad you did a comparison! And I am so jealous that you get to live there!
Oh yes, you should definitely try making clotted cream at home! I did a video about making it in the instant pot, but then I discovered there's a fast method that doesn't require an instant pot. Search for that on UA-cam and give it a try. Good luck! And I hope to see you again in the comment section of another video. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Dara
Hello my friend, very amazing video sharing and great information in this video, thanks for sharing this video, new friend here and stay connected 👍👍
This was never going to be much of a contest. That bottled stuff bares little resemblance to the real thing. As you touched on, the textures just off, and not a lot of similarity taste-wise either. Likely the process it goes though that allows it to sit on the shelf for however long it needs too... I tried it once cos they'd run out of Rodda, thought it'd be better than nothing... wrong.
For the freshest CC though, next time you're in Devon, Exmouth, there's an indoor market with a stall that makes, and sells CC most days. This along with all the other accoutrements you need for a cream tea. Well worth a visit.
Oooh thanks for the tip, John! Yes the bottled stuff is 👎
In Turkey and the Middle East they have something very similar to clotted cream, called kaymak. I wonder if that's available in the US?
Oh... Apparently Walmart have it! Possibly worth a try: www.walmart.com/ip/Kaymak-Spread-12-oz-Kajmak-whipped-cream/126072505
I’ve never heard of it… but I met an English man today who thinks mascarpone cheese is similar. We do have that in the US!
@@MagentaOtterTravels I've had all three, kaymak is much closer. It basically is the same thing, although like clotted cream you'll find good and bad examples (I've seen kaymak in cans - that stuff is NOT good!).
Excellent vlog and review. Having tasted both American clotted cream and good old cotswolds clotted cream my tast buds are firmly with the UK version. But cornwall does make the best scones!!! Excellent video!!😊👍🥰✨
Thank you so much for watching! Scones are surprisingly difficult to make really well, so I definitely appreciate it when I get a good one! 👍
Cheers! Dara
@@MagentaOtterTravels Thank you Dara I agree! And it's a real pleasure to return the visit to someone who has visited my channel. It is I who should be thanking you!
What a fu place to have a taste test. Great backdrop. Very honest appraisal of your experience. Great stuff you two. 👍 💖 🇳🇿 🙋♀️ 🇳🇱
Thanks Anita! Have a great weekend!💕
Watching this before a meal is lethal.
Haha #SorryNotSorry
I’d say it’s just about time for a cream tea! 😂
Thanks for watching! Cheers! Dara
Both the double cream and clotted cream from Devon is $7.98 at H-E-B here in Texas in 2024.
Wow! Pretty pricey!
I could have predicted the outcome as soon as you waved the Rodda's in front of the camera! Great testing, especially with both of you trialling Cornish Bakery scones. (Thinks....I wonder whether the 'long life; American clotted cream is made with sterilised milk to give it shelf-life out of the fridge....?)
Yes, I think it is! Pity the Americans who desperately want to try clotted cream and get that as their first experience 😳
Oooh - note to self...go to world market to try the clotted cream
Now that looked like some rather thick cream! 😳 Nice wee test guys 😊 Rhoddas for me 😃
Thanks! We agree on the Roddas… it’s lush!
After watching this I have added scones, clotted cream and jam to my shopping list.
Roddas needs to be paying me a commisson! LOL
5:29 "Ian is joining me for this taste test because...." Ian thinking "I was forced to!!!" 😂😂😂
This was a rare case where he voluntarily participated 😂😂… because fresh baked goods purchased first thing in the morning from the bakery were involved!
the only positive i got from my 2nd wife was being introduced to clotted cream lol
Well I guess that’s something!😂
Ooo now you’ve got Wills shouting Scon at the tv every time you say ‘scone’ - sorry were from the north (I say scone as mum was from Kent!!). Sorry cream in a jar is wrong in every way. Those scones looked beautiful, as did Bourton on the water that early in the morning! I love it there. We enjoyed this. Cheers 🍻
I know I know.... Here's the deal: things like banana or tomato that ALL Britons say different from Americans, I'll say the British way some of the time. But when it comes to words like grass or scone or Bath which even Britons can't agree on... I think I get to say it how I please. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Just tell Wills I love Christmas and he needs to chill out. hahahaha
Thanks for watching, lovelies! XX
@@MagentaOtterTravels absolutely and to be fair you live nearer the south and in the posh bit of England, so scone all the way!! I think Wills is tired!! Cheers 🍻
Gotta love Ian's honesty.... 😄
Yes he’s as honest as the day is long 😁
@@Poliss95 June of course 😉
Hello Dara there is a UA-cam channel food insider and there is a vid of a tour of a UK Clotted Cream factory, and of course if you go to this the Good Ole UA-cam logarithms will bring up links to other postings on How to make Your Own have fun ATB Bill
Thanks Bill!
I made my own once… now I’ll be lazy and just stick with Roddas.
i put some in my porridge if theres any spare
Yes Ian does that… as well as cereal! 🥣
Ian's favourite full English breakfast, from now on
hahahaha
Potentially a very odd or you could say 'divisive' question, but concerning scones, teacakes, breadcakes/oven bottom cakes etc once they have been cut in half, top/bottom, anyone else prefer the bottom half, think it tastes better, than the top?
Good question! I think the bottom half is usually more browned, so I would choose the top. When it comes to vegetables and meat, I like things very browned. But when it comes to bread, I prefer lightly browned 😉
@@MagentaOtterTravels I am not entirely sure why, but especially with scones, teacakes etc I think the bottom half tastes better, maybe it's the 'rise' or baking process and the bottom half being slightly more dense
It's unusual to hear an American pronounce Gloucestershire correctly...it's usually along the lines of glow(rhyming with cow) Chester Shire 😂
I HAVE to say it correctly, since I live here ;-) haha
@@MagentaOtterTravels have you been to Happisburgh yet on the Norfolk coast? Most Brits can't pronounce that one 😂
@@davebirch1976 not yet, but my friends @Brit Girls Go Stateside are from Norfolk and did a video on how to pronounce it. A crazy one!
@@MagentaOtterTravels yeah it's totally nothing like how it looks. Haze-buh-ruh 😂
I definitely recommend visiting Norfolk it's a beautiful area, I always describe it as The Lake District without the hills.
There's also a place there called Acle which most people pronounce as Aycul but locals pronounce it as Ackle
@@davebirch1976 we definitely want to go!
Where do you put cream? Most people put cream on top....... of fruit, fruit pies and any dessert.
I rest my case for Cornwall.
You have a point. I think the debate is whether clotted cream is more like cream or more like butter. Cream makes sense the Cornish way and butter mix since the Devon way. Thanks for your comment! Cheers, Dara
Everytime I see you with scones I just want to pop to shops and get one...lol 😋😋😅
Just tell theme magenta otter sent you! That will confuse them 😂
@@MagentaOtterTravels I will...you never know, they might say...ohhh you follow her to!! 🤷😉🤣🌷🦦🏖️
Yummm, but so bummmed that we can't get the real-deal clotted cream here in the USA. Oh well. It sure is fun watching you and Ian, though, with your fun and entertaining taste tests. Those scones look awesome too; wonder where they are best here in the USA?? As you said, probably you just can't beat the UK for the best of any of these treats. Enjoy!! 😋❤
Most scones in the US are so dry... like those horrid ones at Starbucks. Honestly, both the scones and the clotted cream need to be homemade if you have them in the US, I'm afraid!
The reason for putting jam first then clotted cream on top is that you can put as much cream on top as you can , it's supposed to be a big dollop on the top 🤔
I think the issue is how firm the clotted cream is... if you have softer cream, I guess that's possible. But not with the stiff stuff they give you at many tea rooms... straight out of the fridge ;-)
Dara: I once asked a Somerset farmer, friend of ours, how he made his own clotted cream (because it was a bit special!) from his cows' milk. He said that the 'finishing touch' was to get his (now deceased) mother to go and lift the lid, and look at the cream......"and that turned it!" It was still the best: shame he has retired.
Oh my goodness!! 😂😂
🙄 scone = s-gone, when will you learn 😉🤣👍
About one out of 10 times I attempt to KIND OF say it that way. It's the best I can do ;-)
Sorry home made scones are the best . When my mum makes scones ,she puts yogurt in the mix . The WAY your doing it is the Devon WAY. IF you put the jam on first it's the Cornish way . SO good to see you having a good time. 😊😊👍👍
Yes, I prefer the Devon Way 😊
As for homemade, I completely agree! I made this video with my Welsh friend Emma in Herefordshire. Our scones were delicious! ua-cam.com/video/xf2IDRD0VQY/v-deo.htmlsi=THR-jOtKLYGNv5vh
Cheers! Dara
Never tried "Clotted Cream" before but we're experts at clotting up our arteries with other fun creamy things, Dara and Ian! We'd love to give Roddas a try. We enjoyed watching your review and taste test but it doesn't seem like it was even close between what we can get here and the UK version. That being said they still mush up perfectly good peas to eat on their fish!🤣
Hahaha good point! Thanks for watching 💕
It’s not the same type of pea as a normal one. It is a type called a marrow fat pea which can only be cooked for a long time like that. Think of it like a lentil.
@@vickytaylor9155 We were just teasing, Vicky. Would love to try them!
you should try cream from jersey cows which produce very high butterfat content
Oh yes, Jersey Cow cream is the BEST! I buy Jersey extra thick double cream from Waitrose occasionally for a treat. Delicious!
So sorry to hear how expensive clotted cream is in America, thats a real shame. Ooo Roddas Clotted Cream, that sounds incredible! Good tip on The Cornish Bakery and their scones! Love the dedication to get there early and avoid the crowds in the hope of getting a fresh warm scone! Attacking scone crazed ducks whatever next? Thats some picture your painting of the wildlife down there! That Roddas clotted cream looked spot on! i am partial to a proper scone with clotted cream, this was absolutely fantastic! This was a very english video! Full marks guys ♥️ 🦆
Cheers, friends! What type of clotted cream do you usually have?
@@MagentaOtterTravels well until seeing this, we wouldn’t normally indulge in a scone outside of a recommended tea room, but that is something we are frequently down for and it always has to be clotted cream and jam on a scone, id send anything else back! But the Roddas looks the business, the consistency and freshness was absolutely spot on! If i can get a recommendation for a great fresh scone bakery/deli in these parts i’ll be taking a leaf out of yours and Ians book and indulging outside on a picnic blanket. What a fabulous idea. Cream is a staple of our diet though, usually fresh double cream. I love clotted though!
@@GENerationXplorers Extra thick jersey double cream is the best! Yum! Now I’m craving a hot rhubarb and raspberry crumble… Hee hee
@@MagentaOtterTravels your definitely planting some great seeds today! 😋
I’d love to try a fruit scone!! Bonus points if it’s in Bourton on the Water 😍🫶🏼
Ok…..MAYBE. If we go early in the morning 😉
I love Bourton-on the water. I only live 20-30 minutes away from there.
Lucky! What’s your favourite Cotswold village?
@@MagentaOtterTravels either Burford or Bourton on the Water, as they are places I went to with my late grandparents on numerous occasions. Bird land and the Cotswold animal park were always a favourite for me growing up. Plus the perfume factory as you could learn about how perfume is made. My only complaint about living in this area is that it is very touristy which makes it very expensive to do anything or go anywhere.
@@vickytaylor9155 I hear you! Over tourism is a serious issue around here. We love the places which are still unspoilt and not crowded 💕
Good video Dara...I wasn't surprised the long life cream was pretty awful!!
LOL, that was a fun video to film! Great to be in BOTW, and eating scones and clotted cream!
The long life stuff in a glass jar is just NOT the same... but the only thing Americans can buy. :-(
I didn't know there was such a thing as long life (uht) clotted cream until I saw it on another UA-cam channel (love and junk) I've only been used to the fresh one.
I'm not sure who is buying the long life stuff here... since most Britons don't seem to know it exists!
@@MagentaOtterTravels and going on the name on the jar it's us that are making it 😂
@@MagentaOtterTravels I think someone must have said "I know let's teach Americans how to make it themselves and sell it, like we have other things" then someone reminded them about Hershey's Cadburys chocolate 🤣
What would make it better? homemade jam.
YES!!! Homemade loganberry freezer jam is my fave 💕
@@MagentaOtterTravels Not heard of loganberry jam before.
@@itsonlyme9938 it is a rare berry, but I think it can be found in the UK as well as the Pacific Northwest in the USA. It’s delicious! A cross between a blackberry and raspberry 😋
Can't beat Rodda's clotted cream! Pronounced Rodders as in Rodney in Only Fools And Horses! Loved your video and location but, PLEASE, it's JAM first! Lol.
Hahaha… I have tried jam first so many times! Check out my video of Upper Slaughter in the Cotswolds to see me attempt it on video… 😂
Clotted Cream in a jar... Yuk!!!
You should have brought yourself a flask of English Breakfast Tea with you. You've gotta have a cuppa with Scones.
Funnily enough I had Scones, Clotted Cream and Jam last Sunday teatime. And a big chunk of Battenberg cake... It was delicious!! 😀😀
Oh man!!! I’m so jealous. Battenberg is my FAVOURITE and love scones with cream n jam. 😋
Rachel from @Britain on a Budget is the biggest fan of Battenberg Cake I know... haha
Sorry to disappoint, but we don't drink tea. So we are a bit weird when it comes to the FULL cream tea or afternoon tea. But normal Brits would definitely have had a proper cuppa with the scones!
@@MagentaOtterTravels Of course we Brits drink tea with a cream tea... What else would you drink with it. When you say you don't drink tea, is this a religious, moral or other reason... or is it you just don't like tea!??
I'm afraid it's not a real cream tea without English Breakfast Tea. So, sorry but you don't pass the test and are no longer permitted to have Scones, Clotted Cream and Jam. Those are the rules.
This is both the best and worst content ever. I’m suffering here without cream tea!!
It takes two American people people to bring me down to earth, as I’ve spent this evening celebrating Bastille day with a few French people in the Angel Islington.Unbelievable 👌🤔😆
Did you celebrate with find French wine?🍷
@@MagentaOtterTravels A fine Bordeaux,since you ask.
Making my own clotted cream is still on my bucket list...but I don't have an instant pot 😢🤷♀😢 I would love to have some without being forced to travel over the Channel every week 😂
There are some good recipe videos on UA-cam... I've even seen one for the microwave! But the oven method (slow and low) is probably the one you should try.
I am also a raspberry jam fan. I don’t like strawberry jam it’s too sweet, raspberry is more tangy, and blackcurrant jam is a favourite on toast. Although fresh strawberries and clotted cream are delicious with or without a scone.
I agree 100%!!
Why is blackcurrant jam so good on toast??? It’s so yummy and my go to breakfast when I’m in the UK
@@britainonabudget it’s perfectly tart and sweet!
Apricot for me
@@Lunarangst Ooh yes! Love some apricot jam!
Dara, snobbish? Not only are you an honourary Englisher, but an honourary Southerner too. Welcome to the club, please remove your shoes at the door. Only a true English southern snob could use the phrase "aviary attack" when referring to a couple of ducks! Stunning backdrop in this one. 😁🦆
Haha, I'm so glad to be welcomed into the club!! Very exciting indeed. I am CHUFFED!
Yes, lovely backdrop because it was still rather early in the morning. An hour later it would have been too crowded!
It doesn’t appear that you had to twist lan’s arm too hard, Dara.
No, not this time! Certain perhaps I need to do an ice cream taste test next?
I am sure that would be popular!
There goes the diet Dara/Ian
The struggle is real!
Unfortunately it's addictive and very high in fat, never had the long life version. It didn't look right and now l know to avoid it. MnS have clotted cream rice pudding heat up in microwave, l always add a spoon of jam, flavour up to you but mine is cherry. Obviously no calories just before a five mile walk with the dogs. Side note we were pulled over by the police in Charleston, driving on the wrong side of the road. I was not driving!. and it was 1.30am.
Oh my word! I can’t believe you were driving on the left side of the road in South Carolina! I’m glad you didn’t get in an accident!
@@MagentaOtterTravels an unexpected trip to see the sister in law and her new New grandson. The police officer was very understanding l think the British accents put him off.
@@andrewfitzgerald2327 I think the British accent made him forgive you! 😉
Fat will not make you fat....Sugar & hight total calories will make you fat. ..
@@douglasgreen437 in all my years in medical education l have never heard something so pathetic. What you are saying is, it's not the knife that killed him but the loss of blood.
I'm rather snobbish about the long-life clotted cream and double cream you can buy in the states too! 😁
Totally NOT worth it!!
@@MagentaOtterTravels I'm sorry but have to admit that I have tried putting a thin layer of butter on the scones first but it doesn't quite work and also have tried Morrisons Extra Thick Double Cream ( in the milk isle ) but as good as it is of course it doesn't compare to Roddas Clotted Cream
My first thoughts when I hear clotted cream: a) you can never go wrong with clotted cream and b) there can never bee too much of clotted cream 😂👍😂
Haha!
First!
I don’t think my channel is big enough to brag about this! Lol! But thanks for being here!
@@MagentaOtterTravels wow, it certainly is! 👍
You made this video a year ago, of course, but the Devon cream company clotted cream you show has many frankly bad reviews on Amazon. That company seems to be sorely lacking in seriousness when it comes to its shipping practices. 🤷🏼♂️
I make my clotted cream at home. Much better, and would compete quite well with Roddy’s.
Now THAT’S snobbishness for you.
Not snobby at all... homemade clotted cream is the BEST!!
😮 guys a serial killer for sure bruv shyyyt
Which guy?
Fancy putting Cornish cream on first,you taste the jam first,insult to Cornish cream.
I apologise for any humans or cream I have offended. I just think it's physics... I've never been able to get the cream to stay on top of jam. So I settled on cream first the Devon way... and using Cornish cream. Seems like a diplomatic compromise! haha
Keep trying jam first,you will soon learn how to spread the cream the Cornish way me handsome.
@@leslieallen7070 in all seriousness, I think the issue is that you can’t use clotted cream straight out of the refrigerator when it’s super stiff. The cream has to be more spreadable…
And obviously that nasty stuff in the jar would never work. It’s too dry.
@@leslieallen7070 Leslie my bucky, i spose when you make a ham sandwich , you lays yer ham out on the braed first & then spreads yer butter on the ham, doee ? It always gotta be fat first , it’s obvious, surely ? We get butter from keep on churning the craem me ansum.
I don't know Cornish Clotted Cream spread the Devon way 🤔🙄 Rodda's definitely needs to be dolloped on top, I can understand it with that other "cream" but not Rodda's 😬, still, I would eat it either way 😋
That is how I retain neutrality... CORNISH cream eaten the DEVON way! ;-)
