Prática de Shadowing: Learn English while I share my favourite British Food with you - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

Good morning!

Today is a little bit rainy, so I'm going to stay inside and share with you some of my favorite British foods.

And at the end of the video, I will tell you how British people really drink tea.

But first, I'd like a coffee.

Coffee machine.

I couldn't live without this.

So I'm going to make a coffee now.

I have the coffee pod.

And I need to put this inside my Nespresso machine.

Like so.

Pressing the button.

Nothing's happening.

Maybe it's not plugged in.

Okay, it is plugged in.

Oh, I forgot.

I have to press these two buttons and wait.

So while I'm waiting, I've got my mug.

I like this one because it has a big handle.

I can see you.

It's good for me because I have big hands, so I can grip this mug.

I like it.

Feels sturdy in my hands.

My second favorite mug.

I like this mug because it's colorful.

It has some abstract patterns on the mug.

My only problem with this mug compared to this mug, look at the difference in the handles.

The handle on this mug is much bigger.

Good for my hands.

The handle on this mug is a bit small, so I can only fit my finger inside.

Not as good.

Finally, this has to be one of my favorite mugs, because I love this character.

Baby Yoda.

This little guy is very cute, and yeah, I bought this recently.

It's not actually very practical

because the rim of the mug here it's hard to drink out of

but baby odors cute so I had to make the purchase.

I had to buy it.

Now let's make some coffee.

I need to fill this little tank up with water.

I just filled this plastic container,

now I'm attaching it to the coffee machine and which mug do I want?

I think I want the red one with a big handle, it's my favorite.

Put the mug on there, press my coffee button and this is This is where the magic happens.

So while the coffee's coming out, I'll take my milk.

This is oat milk.

I prefer oat milk now.

It's a little bit sweeter.

Pouring my oat milk in the mug.

This is the cap or the lid.

I'm screwing it on and, ah, my favorite moment of the day.

Cheers.

So I've been online and I bought lots of foods.

The foods are in this big green bag.

We call this a bag for life.

It's essentially a bag that you can use over and over again.

So it's reusable.

That's nice.

Save the environment.

Today I'm going to share with you all the foods that I have inside here.

So firstly, when I was a kid, I would eat something called cereal.

And I've got some Coco Pops here.

I need a bowl.

Can't drink cereal without a bowl.

So, I've got my bowl.

I need a spoon.

Okay, I have my bowl.

This bowl is a watermelon bowl.

You can see the black watermelon seeds inside.

and the edge is like a watermelon skin.

I have my spoon, my Cocoa Pops, as you can see I'm quite excited now.

Okay I'm opening the box of Cocoa Pops, taking out the plastic packet.

Now I pour my milk.

Oh yes, that's the good stuff right there.

Magic.

Okay, I've got my spoon and I'm ready to dig in.

So I'm eating cereal right now, my box of Coco Pops.

But in Britain, on the weekends, Brits tend to eat something called a full English,

an English breakfast, which you may have heard of.

An English breakfast is quite unhealthy.

It's got things like sausages, bacon, fried eggs, hash browns.

We've got, what else?

fried bread. So good.

I love the rain.

Right let's see what we have next.

I'll just put this away and my milk goes in fridge.

Alright, now one of my favorite snacks as a kid is the humble banana and here I have a bunch of bananas.

Let me take off the cling film.

Yep, taking off the cling film.

Getting rid of that.

Why do I love bananas so much?

Actually I've got a bit of a problem with fruit.

Now a lot of fruit for me is too difficult to get into.

It requires too much effort.

So my theory is that bananas are the best fruit because look at this minimal effort.

All right I've got my banana skin it's already packaged no plastic don't need anything simple peel it,

eat it, enjoy it.

This banana is ripe.

I had some green bananas before and they weren't ripe but this is definitely ripe.

Delicious.

100

Let me put the bunch back in the fruit bowl.

101

Oh, excuse me.

102

Pardon me.

103

I just burped and I pardoned myself.

104

In England we're very polite.

105

We often say, pardon me.

106

Let's see what else we have in the back.

107

All right, another thing that is very common for Brits to eat is baked beans.

108

And I have the ring pull on the top here.

109

I would open the tin of beans.

110

What goes on our beans?

111

Well, Well we like to have beans on toast.

112

Toast is bread that you put in a toaster.

113

Cheese.

114

Specifically cheddar cheese.

115

Now this is just about my favourite food in the world.

116

Nice mature English cheddar cheese.

117

And this is a block of cheddar cheese.

118

And I love this stuff far too much.

119

If I didn't exercise, I would be very fat.

120

But I do exercise, so thankfully I'm not too fat.

121

I eat cheese all the time.

122

I'm a cheese fiend.

123

Slightly addicted.

124

Alright, let's put our beans away and our cheese back in the fridge.

125

What do we have next?

126

I think we should move on to snacks.

127

and there's no better snack than crisps.

128

We say crisps in the UK and these are fried potato with spices on.

129

So one of my favorites is Pringles.

130

I absolutely love Pringles.

131

I used to go camping with my family

132

and we would always take a tube of Pringles like this one except bigger

133

and me and my brother used to fight over the Pringles.

134

Another very British crisp is this brand here Tyrrells.

135

Hand-cooked English crisps.

136

The flavor is sea salt and cider vinegar which is a fancy term for salt and vinegar.

137

A very common flavor.

138

So I'm gonna open this packet.

139

opening the packet of crisps and we say sharing is caring so there you go Cheers!

140

Excellent!

141

These are one of my favourite snacks.

142

I actually prefer savoury food.

143

Savory food is anything that's not sweet.

144

So it could be crisps, cheese, pasta.

145

Okay, I'm gonna put these back in the cupboard.

146

Okay, so on the topic of snacks, we're gonna move to the sweet snacks.

147

I have ordered some chocolate.

148

First, we have probably my favourite chocolate bar ever.

149

a Kinder Bueno.

150

And the reason why I love Kinder Bueno's so much is because they're really delicate.

151

There is a wafer, a very light wafer, and a kind of hazelnut cream inside.

152

It's really light.

153

It's not too rich.

154

So for me, it's a very nice sweet snack.

155

Not too sickly.

156

when something is sickly it's extremely sweet that it makes you feel sick.

157

The final chocolate bar that I want to show you is the Cadbury dairy milk.

158

This is a classic British people love the dairy milk it's probably the number one chocolate bar.

159

Cadbury is a British company and I grew up eating this chocolate bar all the time

160

and this is the fruit and nut version.

161

I like the fruit and nuts inside because it gives a nice texture.

162

There's a bit of crunch from the nuts and a bit of extra sweetness from the fruits.

163

Let's put these away.

164

Potatoes, potatoes.

165

Where are you potatoes?

166

I swore I bought potatoes.

167

Ah.

168

Potatoes.

169

These potatoes are in a plastic bag.

170

So, I'm going to peel these potatoes.

171

And for that, I need a peeler.

172

I'm peeling the potatoes.

173

You may ask, Jay, why are you peeling those potatoes?

174

well my friend I'm peeling these potatoes because I'm going to make fish

175

and chips for my dinner later

176

or my tea as we say in the north of England chips are a huge part of British culture

177

and they are usually sold in chippies.

178

A chippy is a fish and chip shop.

179

We use the term chippy.

180

The main thing that chippies sell is fish and chips.

181

The fish is usually battered and then it is deep fried in hot oil.

182

The same is true for the chips, the potatoes.

183

Usually in the chippy, the potatoes are cut into chunky chips,

184

big chunky chips, which they then deep fry in the hot oil too.

185

Second potato, done.

186

Fish and chips was popularized in the 19th century by the working class of Britain.

187

They would eat fish and chips because it was a meal that filled their bellies.

188

It was very filling and very hearty.

189

Nowadays fish and chips is eaten usually by the seaside.

190

The seaside is the beach.

191

I have very nostalgic memories of eating fish and chips by the beach.

192

When I think of those memories I feel warm and happy.

193

Nostalgic.

194

One thing to watch out for Or if you do ever go to Britain, watch out for the seagulls,

195

because the seagulls often steal, pinch your fish and chips.

196

Watch out for those pesky seagulls.

197

Alright, I've peeled my potatoes, now it's time for the most British thing of all.

198

Drumroll please.

199

Tea!

200

Us Brits love a cuppa.

201

We drink about 100 million cups of tea per day,

202

which averages out at 2.7 cups per person.

203

Madness.

204

This is Yorkshire tea and it's the nation's favourite brew.

205

I am a big fan of it.

206

I love it.

207

Probably because I'm Yorkshire.

208

I'm biased.

209

Here on the box it says let's have a proper brew.

210

A brew is another name for a cuppa and a cuppa is a cup of tea.

211

So why don't we make a cuppa right now and I will show you how us Brits like to enjoy it.

212

First I need the kettle.

213

We pop the tea bag in the mug, pour over the boiling water from the kettle.

214

Now we wait and let it brew for two minutes.

215

Two minutes up!

216

Alright, let's add a splash of milk.

217

Whoops, I spilt some milk.

218

Uh oh.

219

Now, I will take out my tea bag.

220

I'll do this over the sink.

221

Excuse me, be back in a second.

222

Alright, I'm back.

223

A cup of tea.

224

Okay, now here's the secret.

225

A cuppa is not a cuppa without one secret ingredient.

226

The biscuits.

227

To British people, biscuits and tea are more than just a snack.

228

They are holy.

229

They are sacred.

230

They are a religion.

231

Brits cannot live without biscuits and tea.

232

Well, there's only one thing left to say.

233

Cheers.

234

Thank you and have a lovely day.

235

Bye-bye.
