Yup. Shepherds Pie is made with sliced lamb. Cottage Pie is made with minced beef.
Mutton is just old sheep.
Amazing isn't it. It goes from a cheap meal that anyone can make with the master's sunday leftovers to a bollocking luxury item requiring one of the most expensive meats going.
well anyways when i make sheperds pie thats what I do.
god i'm into pointless shit today. i need to get out.
That makes two of us, I always thought the veggies were the difference between the two...not the types of mince. Shows how much I know
It's well nice. You American's need some real food .
Good. Now anyone wanna tell my mum that. She says, we got Cottage Pie tonight. I think Yum. Time I tuck in, I've realised that it's beef not lamb. I don't even like beef that much. I'll say, this is Shepherds Pie and then she'll will say, it's all the same. :[]. Nnnnno. It's not mother.
I dunno how people get mixed up between the two foods. What does a sheperd do? Herd sheep. What does a cottage do? I dunno.
houses people but that would be canabalism
did you never wonder what it had to do with shepherds?
shepherds have sheep. shepherds pie is made from sheep.
and i guess cottage pie is made in cottages? who knows. maybe the cows lived in cottages.
Makes sense though. :yes:
but shepards pie with cheese cooked on top... mmmmm
Nobody got that then .
haha u fool, most people know!
I love cottage pie the best
